Talent manager and social media personality Ogie Diaz has released six-day box-office figures for the 51st Metro Manila Film Festival, showing weak results for this year’s entries. The showbiz insider did not reveal the source of his figures.
From Dec. 25 to 30, the combined gross of the eight films reached only P350.8 million, below the P500 million mark. Several producers are concerned, as some films have yet to recover production costs.

Leading the list is Call Me Mother, starring Vice Ganda and Nadine Lustre, which earned P186.4 million. This is Vice Ganda’s tenth MMFF entry, maintaining his streak of top-performing festival films.
In second place is the horror film Shake, Rattle & Roll: Evil Origins, which earned P66.5 million, showing continued audience interest in the franchise.
The middle rankings are close. Bar Boys: After School is third with P25.9 million, narrowly ahead of Unmarry at P25.6 million. UnMarry improved its performance after expanding its cinema count and gaining positive word of mouth.
Other entries include Love You So Bad with P18.9 million, I’m Perfect with P12.5 million, Manila’s Finest with P10.8 million, and Rekonek with P4.1 million.
As of writing, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), which organizes the annual festival, has not commented on Diaz’s numbers.
