Nanding and Anton are janitors at an insurance firm. When Nanding is diagnosed with cancer and acute tuberculosis from an X-ray, he plans in desperation to end his life quickly by hiring an assassin to kill him. However, Nanding realizes that his X-ray plates have apparently been mixed up, and so he now has to contend with the hitman who is out to shoot him dead.

Critical response


Justino Dormiendo, writing for the National Midweek, gave the film a negative review for its formulaic writing and "revolting" humor. He was highly critical of the film's low-brow approach to comedy, stating that "Twice in the film I cringed in my seat, cursing the producers and their ilk for their wanton display of vulgarity and crassness." Dormiendo also criticized the actors as "an abominable lot", but singled out actress Nova Villa for her "occasionally funny antics."[1]


Home media


On April 8, 2020, Regal Entertainment made the film available for streaming free of charge on YouTube for a limited time before restricting access, and later made it available once again by mid-June 2021.[3]
