Trip Ubusan: The Lolas vs. Zombies

Ah, The Lolas of Kalyeserye; Lola Nidora (Wally Bayola), Lola Tidora (Paolo Ballesteros), and Lola Tinidora (Jose Manalo). Two years ago, these lolas have been part of the AlDub adventures in Eat Bulaga's Kalyeserye segment and now, they became presenters of their own talk show airing every weekdays before Eat Bulaga, called The Lolas' Beautiful Show. Just as we thought their hilarious antics as Eat Bulaga's honorary mascots wasn't enough, here comes their first movie outing as the Lolas team up with different strangers to survive the zombie apocalypse. Yes, really.

Trip Ubusan

Welcome to TRIP UBUSAN and true to its name, this will be one heck of a hilarious roller coaster ride starring The Lolas of Kalyeserye and many other star studded celebrities, including Ryzza Mae Dizon, That's My Bae Kenneth, Taki, and more.

In this movie, The Lolas team up with their niece Charmaine (played by Ryzza Mae) and a couple of survivors as they are outnumbered by a horde of zombies and all they have to do is to survive at any costs in this hilarious spin on zombie apocalypse movies.

Throughout the film, the survivors are dealing with different kinds of zombies such as walkers (yep, the ones we're always familiar with since the start), runners (yes, even zombies can run, you know), and sleepers (or is it slippers? I don't know). No matter what kinds of zombies they come across; fat, thin, big, small, boy, girl, bakla, tomboy, they're no match from the Lolas' hilarious antics because...ah, you'll see.

It's kinda funny for Dabarkads who missed the Kalyeserye gig knowing that it's the Lolas' turn to shine on the big screen after last year's...you know what it is...but hey, Kalyeserye lives and so in this movie about our three favorite lolas battling against a wave of zombies with some current affairs references to spit it out to the moviegoers for the fun of it. I guess this is how pop culture works in every single way and while this film is downright scary because this is basically a horror movie, expect the corniest of jokes because some say, it couldn't get even cornier than this because while they are busy battling zombies of all kinds, they're going to make references about current affairs.

Despite its corny humor, this film does have a heart because family values, friendship, and teamwork is demonstrated in this film and because of such a heart, it's been given Grade A by the Cinema Evaluation Board and a rated PG by the MTRCB so it's a horror comedy movie fun for the whole family. So there we are, a horror comedy film the whole family can enjoy with all the scary and funny bits you can expect from The Lolas of Kalyeserye. It maybe corny as a night out on Klownz but oh my gawd, it is good.

My rating: 3.9 out of 5.
