YAMASHITA- The Tiger's Treasure
Tagalog Movie
Yamashita The Tiger's treasure follows a labyrinthine chase along
the bounty hunter underworld of missing treasure from the spunky
viewpoints of a gang of teeners led by Jobert played by Danilo
Barrios, and chums played by Camille Prats, Mico Palanca and
Bearwin Meilly.
All of whom unwittingly find themselves caught
in the middle of an ongoing treasure hunt about to hit paydirt.
Armando Goyena plays Jobert's Lolo Melo. Wartime witness to
the Yamashita caper who leaves his coded wartime diaries in the
care of grandson Jobert.
Veteran screen bugaboo Vic Diaz plays
the evil Japanese officer Naguchi, who comes back to the country
60 years later, now a crime syndicate boss, to reclaim the loot,
with lackey triggerman, played by Rustom Padilla.
Meanwhile,
Jobert and his gang, clueless at the start as to how they get
themselves into bigtime trouble, cross paths with the beguiling
but double-crossing treasure hunter, Emong, played in the pic
by Albert Martinez.
As Lolo Melo's coded diary falls into
the hands of Emong, who subsequently succeeds in cracking the
code, the stage is set for the biggest treasure expedition of
his career.
Emong then takes Jobert and his gang, at gunpoint
at that, for a perilous sojourn to the remotest ends of the Philippine
archipelago where they come face to face with the answer to the
60-year old mystery: the much-coveted Yamashita Treasure!
