Mostly clear, there are some noun plus -ing constructs that should be avoided per
User:Tony1/Noun plus -ing, but I think these could be easily fixed and do not distract the overall flow terribly.

Missing content
Two of the sources call the subject Magdalena, The Unholy Saint or some variant, another Sinful Saint. Since this movie was shown in the United States, I am hazarding it was under an English title. Which was it? The article seems to make no mention about this.
Apparently, the English(?)
DVD title is Magdalena, The Unholy Saint, with a quip of that title on the box by Ned Martel from the New York Times. Surely, Martel's article points out the English title?

Now added.
The Plot seems to be missing conclusive material, leaving readers with a hanging sense of incompleteness. What is "the evil within her life" that comes to a climax? Did she resurrect Mike's son ("heal Mike's dead son" does not seem quite right either)? What did Mike "tempt the priest" into as well? From the way these details are structured, the reader begs to know and the project is
not here to hide such things.
Page numbers (and ISSNs?) of publications appear to be missing. These details would be helpful in locating the sources, considering that the publications have hundreds of articles or pages.
The articles were found through LexisNexis rather than the raw papers, and didn't have them attached that I could see. I can take another look, if that'd help?

I have found three articles on Gale Cengage that contains additional material I think should be used (Philippines moviegoers preferred other movies, Tony Gloria's intended target, a more detailed meaning of the original name); for copyright reasons, I cannot post their content here. Email me and I will forward them to you.
I believe the following links provide enough details to complete the plot and other information (US and Canada broadcast was only as a Lenten offering, background on development including the intentional biblical similarity, and the negative commentary about the film):
http://asianfanatics.net/forum/topic/57617-philippines-santa-santita/ (Warning: not a source to be linked to or directly used)
The last link is a forum site that supposedly copy and pasted news articles; it would be best to verify the actual physical copy, but one could use them to check if most of the good information are out there to be gotten.
"she is forced to confront the evil within her life": should be clarified/explained, on the basis of clarity to the reader
"... tempt the priest ...": "tempt" the character "into what", or "with what"? Again on the basis of clarity to the reader
Negative review/comments from the Manila Bulletin: The largest newspaper (by circulation), according to its Wikipedia article, found issues with the film (while the second largest is positive), but this is not reflected in the article, introducing neutrality concerns.

GA status again
I'm a little surprised that this is GA.
It has no country of origin.
There is no IMDb link, or any other online database link.
There is a journalist named Jazmines Tessa, and then there is a 2nd journalist named Tessa Jazmines.
I am glancing at this page, glancing, and it has issues. Varlaam (
