“Pagpag: Siyam na Buhay” as PG13

“Pagpag: Siyam na Buhay” rated as PG13 by Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB). This means that people below 13 years old can still watch the film only with the supervision of an adult.

“Pagpag,” stars Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla and directed by Frasco Mortiz, is a co-production between Star Cinema and Regal Entertainment. It also stars Paulo Avelino, Shaina Magdayao, Matet de Leon, Miles Ocampo, Michelle Veto, CJ Navato, Dominic Roque, Clarence Delgado, Janus del Prado and many more.

This film tells the story of teenagers who violated a lot of pamahiin or funeral superstitions.

There has been a news circulating on social media that a certain girl was prevented entry to “Pagpag,” topbilled by teen loveteam Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, by a cinema operator because she was below 18 years old, a clear violation of the PG13 rating of the movie. Nevertheless, this confusion did not hinder the film from becoming a blockbuster success; tickets were sold out from its first day of showing.

In fact, as of December 25, it raked in PhP 23.7 million making it the 3rd highest-grossing film during the MMFF’s first day. The other Star Cinema entry “Girl, Boy, Bakla, Tomboy,” on the other hand, ranked 2nd with a total box-office gross of PhP 47.6 million during the first day of the festival.
