Siksa Neraka

Siksa Neraka (2023) is a religious horror film adapted from a classic comic, delivering a strong moral message. The film presents the consequences of human actions in an explicit manner, serving as a reminder of religious values. However, despite its intriguing premise, the execution falls short.

One of the main weaknesses of Siksa Neraka is its use of CGI, which often appears unpolished. Scenes that should have been terrifying end up looking unconvincing, diminishing the film's eerie atmosphere. Additionally, some parts of the story feel overly drawn out, reducing the tension and making the pacing sluggish.

In terms of acting, the cast delivers a decent performance, effectively conveying the intended emotions, especially in the more reflective scenes. The background score also helps set the mood, though certain moments feel overly dramatic due to excessive sound effects.

Overall, Siksa Neraka has good intentions in delivering its moral message, but its technical execution needs significant improvement. For those who enjoy religious-themed horror, this film might still be worth watching. However, viewers looking for high-quality visuals and a more solid narrative may find Siksa Neraka underwhelming.

Siksa Neraka is a great cinematic work that primarily draws attention through its visual elements. In this film, visuals and CGI seem to take center stage, providing a mesmerizing and unforgettable cinematic experience. Each depiction of torment is genuinely frightening and grotesque, creating an atmosphere in line with the horror theme. These stunning visual effects succeed in immersing the audience in a chilling world. The visual artists involved in this project deserve recognition for their skills in creating an image of Hell filled with gore, fear and horror.

Unfortunately, the beauty of the visuals is not complemented by the depth of the story. The plot is extremely shallow, and as mentioned, it seems tailored to a children's level of narrative. For those seeking a complex or emotional storyline, you will be disappointed.

Overall, Siksa Neraka can be enjoyed as an exhibition of the latest visual and CGI skills from Indonesian filmmakers, and really - that's it. For those who actually looking for a movie with an actual story, Siksa Neraka is not it. All of these can be done in a 15 minute video.

Movie's surface depiction of what it is going to be like in hell.

The story is a simple tale of a family from a village. 4 siblings with different characters that face a fatal death and woke up in hell.

Loved that the flow of the movie is nice. There may be a slight language difference but the film overall gave me a wake up call.

What the director is trying to convey in this film is not a scare tactic but a reminder to all of us. The sins we do on this world that we temporary live will be judged in the hereafter those wrong doings will be punished according.

It is a perfect movie. Every single graphic scene in this movie has a flash back of what happened that led to the graphic grotesque scene. Truly enjoyed.

Never thought hell gore-porn would be fun to watch. But honestly, it was really dope. Other than that, the plot is a children's folktale, and its not really directed towards children (or at least, i hope its not), characters are shallow and one dimensional, not much else to it. It's like instilling hell-fear into your kids, or adults, but with intense visuals so they can be even more traumatized. Its sad to think a lot of people who view this movie will associate it with reality, and that kind of creates an intense fear that will seep into their dreams. Not really something horror movies should do, imho.

Just enjoy the gore--it was a fun watch, though.

This movie is terrible, it's unhealthy fearmongering first and a movie second with paper thin characters, flat emotionless directing, and an exaggerated focus on shock value to try and get people into seats.

But the worst part of it is that it simply isn't scary.

It prays on people's insecurity about their faith for cheap scares and gross-out to try and unnerve the viewer, showing teens below the age of 18 in the movie itself as being tortured for eternity to scare children into being good.

This is not to mention this movie's disgusting portrayal of suicide. Audibly made me yell in my local theater.

Want your children to be good? Treat them with love and respect.

Treat yourself with love and watch something else intead, this movie SUCKS.
