Seduction Flops at the Box Office; Gross only P3.67 Million in 5 Days

Regal Films' Seduction starring Richard Gutierrez, Sarah Lahbati and Solenn Heussaff had grossed only P3.67 million on its five-day run in more or less 90 theaters nationwide according to third party tabulator Box Office Mojo (BOM).


The erotic thriller, which the first Filipino film to premiere this year, failed to create interest in moviegoers despite being helmed by no less than Peque Gallaga and the hype of Richard's brave portrayal in the film.

Meanwhile, Jackie Chan's last action movie Chines Zodiac which is distributed by Star Cinema topped  local box office for the period of January 30 to February 3. Here are the top movies in the Philippines for the said period according to BOM.
