Txt, a 2006 Filipino supernatural horror film directed by Michael Tuviera, starring Angel Locsin herself, Dennis Trillo, Oyo Boy Sotto, Julia Clarete, Dante Rivero and Eugene Domingo landed on When In Manila’s list of the Most Unforgettable Pinoy Horror Films.
The story circles around Joyce (Angel Locsin), a caregiver in a local elderly home who broke up with her obsessive boyfriend, Roman (Oyo Boy Sotto) whom she had a car accident with while on their way home.
