The Healing Grosses P74.4 Million in 2 Weeks - Box Office Mojo

Posted on August 9, 2012 | 9:19 PM

Star Cinema's suspense-horror The Healing starring Vilma Santos and Kim Chiu had grossed P74.4 million in two weeks according to third-party tabulator Box Office Mojo (BOM).

Contrary to the report of Star Cinema, the box office gross of The Healing based on the tally of BOM fell short of its P80 million first week gross (studio report). However, BOM covers only about 60-70% of movie screens nationwide so this might cause the discrepancy.

Posted on August 3, 2012 | 11:56 AM

Primetime TV princess Ella Cruz reveals that she was mesmerized when she first met “The Healing” lead star and Star for All Seasons Vilma Santos.

“I was really amazed when I saw her in ‘ASAP” recently,” Ella shared. “It was really overwhelming when I was introduced to her as Aryana because she said that she watches our fantaserye. It is really a huge honor that Ms. Vilma, who is also known as the mermaid ‘Dyesebel,’ follow our story.”

As a fan of Ate Vi, Ella revealed that she wants to follow the footsteps of the Star for All Seasons. “She is a very good role model for young artists like me because she managed to remain grounded even after so many years,” she said.

The tween mermaid also shared that if she will be given the opportunity, she wishes to work with Vilma in a drama movie. “If ever I will have the chance, I want to do a movie with her that deals with a mother-daughter relationship, or any kind that is family-oriented.”

Meanwhile, as Ate Vi’s horror-suspense movie “The Healing” continues to keep moviegoers on the edge of their seats, Ella’s “Aryana” also keeps TV viewers glued to their TV screens now that Neptuna (Desiree del Valle) is ready to take Aryana (Ella) back from Ofelia (Pokwang). Will Neptuna succeed in her plan to get Aryana back? How will Aryana’s life change when everyone discovers that she is a mermaid?

Posted on July 31, 2012 | 10:42 PM

The Healing starring Vilma Santos and Kim Chiu grossed P80 million on its first week of showing according to Star Cinema. The Healing  is Gov. Vi's 50th anniversary movie and her first suspense-horror film.

The Healing First Week Gross: P80 million

This was quite an amazing feat for a movie that despite heavy rains and huge competitors from Hollywood  and the successul Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival managed to rake in a large sum of money. It can be recalled that The Dark Night Rises' 2nd week in theaters clashed with The Healing's first week while Cinemalaya ran from July 20-29, also showing simultaneously with The Healing.


The Healing, which is graded A by the Cinema Evaluation Board, was given an R-13 and R-18 rating by the MTRCB. This would mean that in its two versions, strictly 13 years old or 18 years old and above can watch the movie (kids are not allowed).

Congratulations to the whole cast and crew of The Healing, especially to Gov. Vilma Santos-Recto and Direk Chito Roño. The Healing, now on its second week is still showing in theaters nationwide.
