Pantasya (2007)



















Five previously unconnected people find their lives intertwining in erotic ways in this gay-themed Filipino movie. It has five episodes that all deal with gay soft-core fantasies involving men in uniform. It starts with "Biyahe" about a jilted taxi driver and his jealous passenger who find comfort in each other's arms. (Arthur Estrella and Rov Roxas) The second episode is "Linya", about a lonely homeowner whose phone conks out. Two handsome repairmen arrive and they end up engaging in a sexy threesome. (Mark Dionisio, Harold Montano, and Kiko Montenegro)

Next is "Laro", about four basketball players who are taking a shower in the locker room after an intense game. A shy guy takes a peek at them and later joins in the fun. (Kervin Castillo, Dexter Castro, Brent Lorenzo, Nicco Taberna, and Kyle Zenorio) "Bilis" is about a hunky delivery boy in a hurry who delivers pizza to a bored yuppie who is working overtime in his office. They are instantly attracted to each other. (Justin De Leon and Trent Allan) The last episode is "Bantay", about a horny security guard on the graveyard shift. He sees two lovers quarrel and go their separate ways. Rhyme Rodriguez dumps Jon Eric, and Jon finds comfort in the arms of Kyro Baldemor, the easy going guard who allows Jon to cry on his shoulder.

Tasteful and erotic, this sexy Filipino film is filled with naked guys, hot scenes, and is lots of fun. Dreams come true in amazing reality and detail. We get a beautiful show of Asian male skin and a great deal of imagination. Viewers opinions are mixed. One wrote, "Somewhat disappointed in the movie. Stories were low key and not enough frontage showing which in my opinion makes a gay movie. Sorry I was not enthusiastic enough about the movie but the way the synopsis sounded it was really hot. More like tepid." Another wrote, "Very well done, was disappointed with the lack of nudity that was advertised but stories were well done." Marissa Cadiz composed the original music, Boots Agbayani Pastor wrote the screenplay, and Brillante Mendoza directed. In Tagalog with English subtitles.
