REEL DEAL: Kimmy Dora And The Temple Of Kiyeme SPOTLIGHT

The trailer of the sequel to the successful comedy movie Kimmy Dora has now been released! Kimmy and Dora (and Mikki) are back with hilarious antics and comedic scenes with Kimmy Dora And The Temple Of Kiyeme, by Star Cinema and Spring Films.

This brings the opposite-minded sisters to a scary quest involving a dark creature and secrets hidden in the Temple of Kiyeme. Also shows that they went abroad (most probably Korea) to pay respect to their ancestors. This also brings their leading men, Dingdong Dantes and Zanjoe Marudo.

The trailer is super funny and I am hoping the quality of comedy could match or exceed the first Kimmy Dora movie, for now enjoy the trailer!
