About Ryan Louis Mantilla
Ryan is a Philippine-based lifestyle and entertainment journalist, primarily covering film, television, music, and anything pop culture-related. He has also written about beauty, fashion, wellness, and human-interest stories under the lifestyle category. Before joining Collider as a news and feature writer, Ryan worked as a staff writer for a local newspaper.
A Communication Arts graduate from Far Eastern University Manila, Ryan has been making a living out of his passion for writing and cinema. From features like Kill Bill, The Strangers, and Martyrs to film franchises like X-Men, The Hunger Games, and Harry Potter, his areas of interest vary depending on the main character (or villain, for the most part) involved. Some of his favorite genres include horror/slasher flicks, thrillers, science fiction, comedy, and reality competition shows, among others. He is also an avid fan of horror movie franchises, including Evil Dead and X.
He enjoys writing about women and queer culture in films and television shows, though Shrek — Shrek 2, in particular — will always hold a special place in his green, ogre heart. Andrea Sachs from Devil Wears Prada and other writerly characters from the late 90s and early 2000s rom-coms have inspired him to pursue writing. Ryan is also responsible for a number of RPDR articles in Collider (you’re welcome). When he’s not writing, you can usually find him exploring the world or watching his favorite comfort shows like Pose and Modern Family.
