흥미로운 사실

Clarita is a 2019 Philippine supernatural horror film co-written and directed by Derick Cabrido. Starring Jodi Sta. Maria in a lead role, the film was based on the alleged possession of Clarita Villanueva.

Production

Clarita is based on the story of the alleged possession of Clarita Villanueva in the 1950s. It was produced under Black Sheep Productions. Director Derick Cabrido first learned about the story while he was still working with the GMA television series Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho through newspaper clippings. He took an interest in the story, which had garnered wide domestic and international attention at the time.

Cabrido leaned on director-writer Cenon Palomares to help adapt the story into a feature film. The production team largely had to rely on newspaper clippings since broadcast media in the Philippines in the 1950s were absent, with the country still recovering from the aftermath of World War II. They were also not able to interview any heir of Villanueva for potential material for the film.

The production team approached the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines to talk to priests who perform exorcisms, as well as secured a transcript of Clarita's exorcism. However, the team decided against using the material due to it being deemed too "personal" and failure to secure consent from the Catholic Church, and the parties directly involved.
