Plot
"Maligno"
Madam Ceres (Cita Astals), a tarot reader, advises Laurie (Ruffa Gutierrez) about the consequences of her beauty.One day, Laurie and her friend, Nicky (Bong Regala) take a vacation on a secluded island with their helpers, Mang Isko (Angel Confiado) and Aling Sela (Rustica Carpio). On the day they are supposed to leave, their boat never comes and there is no other way to contact them. In an argument, Laurie leaves Nicky and goes into the woods. Before she ventures further, she is spotted by Mang Isko and stops her from going in even more. Laurie talks to Aling Sela at her house. Laurie tells her about the woods but Aling Sela talks to her that she shouldn't go back as well.
That night, Laurie goes back into the woods and encounters a man (Monsour del Rosario) playing an instrument and gestures to come with him. Before she comes closer, she is spotted by Nicky and tells her that they should go back and sleep and the man suddenly disappears. The next day, Laurie wakes up to find that Nicky has grown ill. He is treated by Aling Basyon (Aida Carmona), the island's healer. When Laurie tells Mang Isko and Aling Sela what happened, Aling Basyon advises her not to go back, never go with the man and never eat his food, because he's not actually a human.
In an act of desperation, Laurie decides to ask for the man's help. She finds him at the same tree he was at last night and he tells her to follow him to a healer. While traveling through the woods, Laurie asks for the man's name, guessing that it's Victor, which is right. When they arrive at a house in the woods, they go inside. Victor tells her about his home and that they should rest before talking about Nicky. Laurie, suspicious, turns down his offer to live in the house. Victor insists that they should stay and eat, giving Laurie a grape. Laurie refuses and escapes, much to Victor's dismay, and turns into his real self.
When Laurie arrives back home, Aling Basyon tells her that it's Victor who caused Nicky's illness because he wants to take Laurie away. He appears as Laurie's wants in her life to take her away and that everything Laurie sees is fake. Aling Basyon decides to guide Laurie into a cave, full of the remains of Victor's victims, and warns Laurie to be cautious of him. At nighttime, Aling Basyon tries to help Nicky again, only to find that critters are living inside him and that his condition is getting worse.
During this, all of them hear Victor's whispers, so Laurie decides to stop him once and for all. When Laurie decides to call Victor's name, she is suddenly transported into his house. Victor tells her that Nicky will only go back to normal if Laurie decides to live with him forever. Laurie refuses and will only agree if Victor will show his true self, which he does in desperation. As the wind grows stronger by Victor's power, trees come crashing down to hurt Laurie. When he realizes what he's doing, he decides to stop and tells Laurie to go back to Nicky because he can't stand to hurt her any longer.
When Laurie goes back to the house, she is greeted with a cured Nicky and they celebrate after stopping the curse.
