“Cattleya Killer” is a six-episode series that is adapted from the 1996 Star Cinema film “Sa Aking Mga Kamay.” The story unfolds when a young woman’s body is found with a Cattleya flower, which is a signature style of a serial killer in Manila dubbed as the ‘Cattleya Killer.’ As the police force becomes baffled with the investigation, agent Anton dela Rosa (Arjo Atayde), son of Joven Dela Rosa (Christopher de Leon) – the cop that solved the case three decades ago – becomes the primary suspect.
“Cattleya Killer” also stars Zsa Zsa Padilla, Jake Cuenca, Ricky Davao, Nonie Buencamino, Ketchup Eusebio, Jojit Lorenzo, Rafa Siguion-Reyna, Frances Makil-Ignacio, Lito Pimentel, and many more.
