Wag Kang Lilingon (English: Don't Turn Away; more specifically Don't Look Back) is a 2006 Filipino horror anthology film directed by Jerry Lopez Sineneng and Quark Henares and starring Anne Curtis and Kristine Hermosa. It was the first film co-produced by Viva Films and Star Cinema years after Viva ended its ties with ABS-CBN in 2001.

Plot

The plot is separated into three parts: Uyayi, Salamin, and the film's epilogue.

Uyayi (Lullaby)

Nurse Melissa seeks help from her boyfriend James to investigate mysterious deaths at Angel of Mercy Hospital. Melissa suspects Dr. Carl but discovers that James was a former patient with a troubled past. As the hauntings intensify, Melissa's sanity deteriorates, and she ultimately reveals herself as the killer, severely burning half of James' face and seemingly killing him.

Salamin (Mirror)

Rosing and her daughters move into a new house. They discover a mirror in the basement and perform a ritual, unknowingly releasing the spirits of the house's previous tenants. Hauntings escalate, and they seek help from a psychic who advises them to get rid of the mirror. They leave the house, but the spirits follow them. Angel confronts the killer, Nestor, in the basement. With the help of her family and the ghosts, they defeat Nestor, but Angel, Lander, Trixie, and Rosing die.

Epilogue

In the epilogue, it is revealed that Nina, now called Melissa, became a nurse at the Angel of Mercy hospital, built on her childhood home's site. She is haunted by the same spirits. Melissa appears to be delusional, conversing with James, Angel, and Rosing. The film ends with James awakening and attacking Melissa.
