Blood Hunters Rise Of the Hybrids Inspired by Vincent Soberano’s original comic book drawings, based on old Filipino folklore he’d listened to as a child fueled by his ingenuity mixed with his imagination running wild; He fused martial arts and fantasy in one motion picture — a very bold and a totally brilliant idea with avantgard and nationalistic undertones to it.
Produced By former Olympian & Action Star Monsour del Rosario He insisted to feature the best Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) in it, insisting that the Actors must train in FMA for the movie”.
