Eraserheads: Combo on the Run, the acclaimed documentary chronicling the journey of the legendary OPM rock band, streams globally on Netflix on May 30, 2026.
Directed by Maria Diane Ventura and produced by DVent Films, the documentary chronicles the band’s rise in the late 1980s to becoming an influential force in the greater local music scene. It will now be available to watch on the streaming juggernaut in over 190 countries — now with never-before-seen footage, bonus material, and a much more refined edit.
“This film has always meant so much to us, and to see it travel beyond our borders in this way is very special. What’s been most meaningful is hearing how people connect to it on a personal level, the sense of healing, and the pride in being Filipino. To now bring that to a global audience feels like an extension of that, an opportunity to share who we are, our music, our stories, and our spirit, with the rest of the world,” Ventura shares in an official statement.
Ventura added that the re-edit of the documentary isn’t changing the story but refining how it was told. “We want to make sure the emotional throughline remains strong while shaping it in a way that feels more expansive and accessible,” she shares.
This past April, the documentary was released in North America and set a record for the widest release of a Filipino documentary.
