Kutob (lit. 'Foreboding') is a 2005 Filipino supernatural psychological horror film directed by Jose Javier Reyes. The film was a box office success in the Philippines, with both Reyes and Agustin also winning the Best Director and Best Actor awards respectively at the 2005 Metro Manila Film Festival; the film itself came third at the festival. The film contains elements of supernatural and psychological horror without being overtly of those genres, drawing comparisons in places to two American films; namely, Psycho and Carrie.
