THE Eraserheads documentary, “Eraserheads: Combo on the Run,” has enjoyed a pretty strong performance over the weekend, fueled by glowing reviews and enthusiastic word-of-mouth.
Director Diane Ventura expressed her deep gratitude to Eheads fans for their support.
“I’m filled with so much gratitude. I hope more people get to see the film. I hope it does for them what it did for me. This is not just a music story; it’s our story. This is for all of us,” she said.
Originally planned for a limited release, “Eraserheads: Combo on the Run” is a powerful exploration of how a once-disbanded group of punks came together and provided reprieve to an entire nation while, perhaps unknowingly, embarking on their journey of healing. Featuring rare footage and never-before-seen interviews, the documentary offers a compelling look at the band’s storied history, struggles, and triumphs.
The legendary Pinoy rock quartet made a surprise appearance over the weekend, performing live during a sold-out screening at a mall in Quezon City. They played their timeless hits, including “Superproxy,” “Combo on the Run,” “Alapaap,” “Spoliarium,” “Pare Ko,” and “Magasin.”
