VIDEO 48 FEATURED IN 'MAXIM' MAGAZINE/ February 2009

One of the best local blogs we’ve come across recently is the Video 48 blog by film enthusiast Simon Santos. Props to the guy for keeping the flame of classic Filipino movies alive and reintroducing these classic films to both local and foreign cinema buffs. His collection of movie minutiae, from vintage posters (such as those of the Eddie Garcia starrer Batuta ni Drakula) to film historical anecdotes, is both wonderful and entertaining, a trip back in time to when local cinema was at its peak.


Many thanks to Karlo Samson
and to the staff of 'Maxim' magazin

  1. Simon,
    The Maxim cover is most distracting. Having aroused my libidinous sensibilities, I stayed there longer than necessary, before finally moving on to what you wanted to show in the first place, hahaha. Putsa, where can I buy the whole magazine?

  5. Rod,
    Wala ka ng makikitang Playboy, Penthouse, at Hustler dito ngayon. Maxim, FHM, Rogue, at mga bagong magazines na ang makikita mo. Inaboy mo ba yung GINOO, magazine noon ni Mr. Rod Reyes ? yung Ermita ni Krip Yuzon ?
