Plot

The story revolves around the abuwak race (Aswang). Their numbers had declined and the only way the race could survive is through the rare ability that only the soon-to-be queen of the abuwaks, Hasmin (Lovi Poe), possesses.

Abuwaks look human in their normal state, but they can fly and move underground when they transform into raven-like birds. They can also burrow through earth.

They are quick and strong, and they can attack and eat humans. Hasmin prefers to stay with and protect humans when her fellow abuwaks attack the village.

A hired killer named Daniel was forced into his trade as a youth. Like Hasmin, he doesn't like killing the innocent, and this reluctance leads him to the abuwak lair, suggested to be somewhere in Pampanga.

Along with two other killers, he went to Pampanga to kill the two remaining members of the family that they massacred in Quezon City.
