"Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz" shows Sarah as Ruth, a reclusive police officer who moves into the hometown of a seemingly innocent young girl that is Leah, played by Shy Carlos. Ruth is still reeling from the death of her younger brother when she witnesses Leah jump out of a balcony. Gabriel, Leah's childhood friend, begs Ruth for help, prompting the latter to join the investigation.
Naturally, there are suspicions as to why Leah committed such act. Blame is put on two people. One is Rosario, a loyal maid to the Dela Cruz household who loves Leah as her own. She has a strong belief in superstitions. The other is Sister Eloiza, a school guidance counselor who once belonged to a cult but became a confidant to Leah.
As Leah's odd behavior escalates, so does the friction between her parents Oscar and Marite. Oscar is a kind and loving father, but a domineering husband, while Marite has been an object of rumors in their small town.
Holding a secret that should be a big help to the investigation is Father Lucas, the local parish priest, but something is keeping him mum about it. The investigation takes a darker turn when Leah's possession is revealed and sinister connections between the people closest to her come bubbling to the surface. Worse, the devil's influence becomes widespread.
While this is Sarah and Shy's first movie collaboration, this is not their first time to star in a horror movie. Shy was seen in Chain Mail in 2015, while Sarah was seen in a 2010 supernatural film from another movie outfit.
Prince of the Dance Floor Julian Trono playing as Gabriel, Jim Paredes as Father Lucas, and respected theater actors in supporting roles make this movie even more exciting.
Meet the cast:
After her "Tasya Fantasya" series on TV5, Shy Carlos takes on another title role, but this time in a much darker story, "Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz". This is her second lead role in a horror movie following "Chain Mail" in 2015.
Leah has a reputation of being simple and innocent, but this is brought into question when she begins to act in strange ways that cause harm to those around her. She grows fearful and helpless as things completely get out of hand. Her hope lies in Ruth (Sarah Lahbati), a police officer investigating on her case, but the devil is out to get her as well.
Sarah Lahbati plays Ruth, a police officer facing an entity darker than she's ever encountered in "Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz". This is her big screen comeback after seven years. Her last film was also a horror film called "White House".
Shortly after moving into a new town and still grieving over the death of her brother, Ruth witnesses a young woman named Leah (Shy Carlos) jumped out of a balcony. Joining the investigation, she must piece together the lies and secrets of the people close to Leah before the demon takes hold of her.
Sarah expressed her excitement over this project with an instagram post of her photo with Erik Matti and Katski Flores, whom she called "veteran director" and "genius director", respectively. She captioned it with, "seriously cannot wait for you to watch Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz."
Prince of the Dance Floor Julian Trono won't be able to dance his way out of terror in the movie "Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz", coming out in cinemas this June.
Julian plays Gabriel, a young man who likes bringing good vibes to people. He is childhood friends with Leah (Shy Carlos) and has deep affections for her. When Leah begins to act strange, to the extent of jumping from a balcony, he begs a police officer (Sarah Lahbati) to investigate. But what he'll find out about Leah might break his heart.
"Ang Pagsanib Kay Leah Dela Cruz" opens in cinemas on June 28, 2017. From Kamikaze Pictures, distributed by VIVA Films and Reality Entertainment. Produced by Erik Matti. Directed by Katski Flores.
