SINE SINDAK: The 7th Cycle brings days of horror to three SM Cinemas in Valenzuela, Caloocan



SINE SINDAK: THE 7TH CYCLE returns for Halloween 2026, offering moviegoers an affordable horror film experience from October 28 to November 3, 2026.

The festival features seven horror films, a seven-stamp collection, and rewards for participating moviegoers. Its ₱100 movie screenings will be available at three cinemas in northern Metro Manila: SM City Grand Central, SM Center Sangandaan, and SM City Valenzuela.

The event provides an accessible Halloween entertainment option for horror enthusiasts, groups of friends, and families looking to enjoy a cinematic scare without the usual higher ticket price. With a week-long schedule, SINE SINDAK invites audiences to experience the thrills of horror cinema while enjoying the added excitement of collecting stamps and earning rewards.

For moviegoers planning their Halloween activities, the festival offers another reason to head to their nearest participating SM cinema and experience the season's scares on the big screen.


₱100 IS ALL IT TAKES TO SCREAM

Think you can survive seven horror films? At ₱100 per ticket, Sine Sindak: The 7th Cycle makes it easy to dive into a terrifying cinema experience while taking on a challenge of your own.

Beyond the scares, moviegoers can collect stamps and qualify for exclusive rewards. The festival features seven different horror films, with one stamp available for every unique title watched.

The challenge is simple: the more films you watch, the more stamps you collect—and the bigger the rewards you can work toward. Gather your bravest movie buddies and see how much of Sine Sindak you can handle!


WATCH SEVEN, COLLECT THE REWARDS

Seven horror films mean seven chances to collect stamps—and exciting rewards for those who complete the challenge!

Moviegoers can obtain a Sine Sindak Passport with their first eligible movie ticket purchase. Each different film watched earns one stamp, bringing viewers closer to these treats:

  • 2 stamps: One sticker sheet
  • 5 stamps: One free pop pouch
  • 7 stamps: One free movie pass

There’s a catch for dedicated horror fans: rewatching a film you’ve already seen won’t earn you another stamp. Make sure to explore different Sine Sindak titles to complete your passport.

For stamp collection and reward redemption, present your passport together with a valid movie ticket or booking confirmation at the cashier. Once all seven stamps are complete, surrender your passport to claim the free movie pass.


MAKE IT A HALLOWEEN BARKADA CHALLENGE

Who among your friends is the bravest horror movie fan? Halloween week gets a little more thrilling with Sine Sindak: The 7th Cycle, where moviegoers from Caloocan and Valenzuela can turn seven horror films into one unforgettable group challenge.

Gather your most fearless friends and head to SM City Grand Central, SM Center Sangandaan, or SM City Valenzuela to begin your cinematic scare fest. With every ticket costing just ₱100, your barkada can take on the films one by one and see who has the courage to complete the full cycle.

The exclusive rewards offer another reason to keep watching, but the challenge comes with its own entertainment: persuading your friends to return for another scare.

After all, the ultimate Halloween trophy may not be a prize at all—it could be the bragging rights of surviving every film and knowing exactly who screamed first!

Your Sine Sindak challenge starts TODAY!

SINE SINDAK: THE 7TH CYCLE runs October 28–November 3, 2026 at:
📍 SM City Grand Central
📍 SM Center Sangandaan
📍
SM City Valenzuela
🎟️ ₱100 per ticket




Get your tickets:
📱SM Cinema App
🎟️SM Cinema ticket booths

So, gather your bravest friends, get your Sine Sindak Passport, and start collecting those stamps.

Seven films. Seven stamps. One challenge: can you survive the cycle?

A Taste of Taal, Right in the Heart of Manila at PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined



What happens when the culinary traditions of Taal and Batangas meet contemporary Filipino cooking? Belmont Hotel Manila explores that question through Belmont Hotel Manila, a special collaboration featuring Chefs Grant Zuniga and Aaron Valeroso.

Launched as part of Belmont Hotel Manila's 11th anniversary celebration, the experience brings regional flavors to Café Belmont through two distinctive creations designed to showcase Filipino ingredients and culinary heritage in a modern setting.


PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined, a culinary collaboration celebrating the flavors and heritage of Batangas through contemporary Filipino cuisine.


Available until December 31, 2026, diners can try:
🍚 Sinigang Risotto with Grilled Maliputo — PHP 1,200
🍗 Adobo sa Dilaw Chicken Confit — PHP 1,200





For me, what makes the experience interesting is how the dishes take flavors that feel instantly familiar and present them in ways that invite diners to look at Filipino cuisine differently. The combination of sinigang and risotto, for example, creates an unexpected pairing, while grilled maliputo brings a distinctly Taal-inspired element to the plate.

The
Adobo sa Dilaw Chicken Confit similarly takes inspiration from a Filipino staple and gives it a more contemporary culinary treatment.

At the center of the experience is
PAMANA, Belmont Hotel Manila's legacy program dedicated to Filipino food heritage. Meaning heritage or inheritance, the program celebrates the stories, ingredients, traditions, and culinary talents that continue to shape Filipino cuisine.






With Taal as its inspiration, this latest PAMANA collaboration offers diners a chance to experience a taste of Batangas without leaving Manila—one that feels rooted in tradition while looking toward the future of Filipino dining.

“Through PAMANA, we want to share the richness of Filipino cuisine with our guests and introduce them to the stories and traditions behind every dish. Working with Filipino chefs also allows us to celebrate their creativity and show how familiar flavors can be presented in new ways while remaining connected to their roots.” ~Mayann Malapote, Hotel Manager of Belmont Hotel Manila


From an Online Kitchen to a Culinary Collaboration

Behind the contemporary approach of PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined are chefs whose culinary journeys span both local and international kitchens.

Grant Zuniga and Aaron Valeroso began building their entrepreneurial story during the pandemic, when they launched an online kitchen. Their venture eventually evolved into a multi-awarded restaurant in Lipa, Batangas, reflecting their commitment to developing Filipino cuisine through their own culinary perspective.


From left: Chef Rey Nalzaro, Executive Chef of Belmont Hotel Manila; Chef Aaron Valeroso; and Chef Grant Zuniga, featured chefs for PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined and restaurateurs based in Lipa, Batangas.





Both chefs studied in Italy, adding international culinary training to their foundations. Chef Grant later expanded his experience through hotels and award-winning restaurants in the United States, while Chef Aaron worked in five-star hotels in the Philippines.

For this collaboration, however, the chefs turn their attention back to Batangas.

Inspired by the region's culinary traditions, they transform familiar Filipino flavors into contemporary creations that showcase both their technical backgrounds and their connection to local food culture.

It is this meeting of global culinary experience and Batangueño roots that gives Taal, Reimagined its distinct character


Batangueño Flavors on the Plate

For those who want to discover a little of Batangas without leaving Manila, PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined offers a culinary journey through two contemporary Filipino creations.

The Sinigang Risotto with Grilled Maliputo brings together the sour, savory character of sinigang and the creamy texture of risotto. Its grilled maliputo provides a smoky finish while paying homage to Taal Lake, where the fish is strongly associated with the region's culinary identity.

The second creation, Adobo sa Dilaw Chicken Confit, takes inspiration from a Batangueño specialty featuring luyang dilaw, or turmeric. Paired with gata or coconut milk, the dish develops earthy and aromatic notes, while the slow confit preparation gives the chicken a tender texture.

Together, the dishes tell a story about how regional Filipino cuisine can evolve while staying connected to the ingredients, flavors, and traditions that define a place.

The experience is available at Café Belmont, located inside Belmont Hotel Manila in Newport City beside Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3. With direct access through Runway Manila, it is conveniently positioned for travelers, business guests, and diners looking to explore Filipino flavors before or after a flight.


Café Belmont, Belmont Hotel Manila’s all-day dining restaurant, offering Filipino and international cuisine in Newport City, Pasay City.


PAMANA: Taal, Reimagined is available at Café Belmont until December 31, 2026, with both dishes priced at PHP 1,200 each. For inquiries and orders, visit www.belmonthotelmanila.com, call (02) 5318 8888 or +63 927 007 9952, or email dine@belmontmanila.com.

A Visual of Memory and Light: Richmonde Hotel Iloilo unveils "Dumdumanon" by Artists Babak Niaraki

Multimedia artist Babak Niaraki poses with Richmonde Hotel Iloilo officers and staff at the launch of his photo exhibit.


Discover Iloilo through a different lens at Richmonde Hotel Iloilo’s Dumdumanon: Seeing Iloilo—Moments of a City, Seen and Remembered, a compelling photography exhibition featuring the work of Iranian multimedia artist Babak Niaraki.

Launched in celebration of the Iloilo Arts Festival this October, the exhibition reflects Iloilo Business Park’s role as the city’s Center of Arts and Culture. Its title, Dumdumanon, draws from Hiligaynon and means to remember or recollect—a fitting expression for a collection devoted to the moments, places, and experiences that make Iloilo special.

Having found a home in Iloilo City, Niaraki captures the destination with both a fresh perspective and a deep sense of belonging. His photographs range from the colorful spectacle of the Dinagyang Festival to the candid, unfiltered moments of everyday local life.


Dumdumanon: Seeing Iloilo—Moments of a City, Seen and Remembered photo exhibit runs until November 6, 2026 at the lobby of Richmonde Hotel Iloilo.

Dumdumanon: Seeing Iloilo—Moments of a City, Seen and Remembered photo exhibit runs until November 6, 2026 at the lobby of Richmonde Hotel Iloilo.


The result is a visual journey that brings the city to life. Viewers can almost sense the energy of the sadsad, imagine the bustle of Central Market, and feel the refreshing coastal breeze through his evocative images.

More than a showcase of photography, Dumdumanon is an invitation to appreciate Iloilo’s cultural richness and the people and places that give the growing city its distinctive soul.


Art Meets Enriching Experiences

More than a showcase of exceptional photography, Dumdumanon reflects Richmonde Hotel Iloilo’s continuing efforts to bring authentic local culture closer to its guests while celebrating Babak Niaraki’s artistic vision.

"Just as Babak’s photos effortlessly bridge the gap between Iloilo’s high-energy celebrations and its quiet, soulful rhythms, Richmonde strives to elevate every facet of a guest's stay—delivering memorable hospitality not only through grand gatherings, but also in serene retreats. So, we invite everyone to visit the hotel to reminisce and rediscover Iloilo anew through Babak’s lenses.” ~Lucille Pedroso, Richmonde’s Assistant Director of Sales

The exhibition invites visitors to discover Iloilo through Niaraki’s photographs, with the collection on display at the Richmonde Hotel Iloilo lobby until November 6, 2026. Art lovers can also purchase the large-format prints featured in the exhibition.
