I was kind of excited for this one. Really want to support Baim. The movie starts of promising but half way in, the ghost story turned into a who dunnit. The story revolved around two school friends Arum and Pica whose internships was an assignment at a clinic Lembayung somewhere in a village. Both carrying personal secrets.. The story got a little bit ridiculous when Arum's boyfriend visited Arum and then disappeared with a mysterious lady.

1. The timeline here was very very disruptive and illogical. Watch it and tell me otherwise.

2. Paula Verhoevan does not look like Dimas' mom. This point on the plot just got silly. BTW leave the acting to real actors ok?

3. The newspaper clips in the bag is ridiculous. Baim should have written a different scenario. I cringed here.

The movie's final act was good but those 3 things just ruined an otherwise 8 out of 10 score.

Try again Baim.

Just caught this in the bioskop near me... BTC cinema in pasteur. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the film. I thoroughly enjoyed it very very much. Having been disappointed by recent movies like Siksa Kubur and Susanna, Sumala executive produced by Luna Maya was a breath of fresh air. I saw the trailer before hand and I didn't really want to go watch it. But my wife dragged me and I reluctantly comply. Boy was I entertained. Full marks for all acting and Maykala the little girl stole the thunder. Solid performance all around 👏.

While I would have preferred to see more of Satan, she was the devil's child by the way, I suspect some scenes was not included to keep the running time short. I am a fan of slasher gore films like Friday 13th and Elm Street and this movie lived up to my expectations.

So kudos to the director 👏 and producers I really enjoyed this one.

One final note, this film just lack cinematic artistic shot... such as drone establishing scenes, close ups of feets and faces. And too much music where silence is much preferred.

MORE please what is next??

Wow where to start. M Night seems to have lost the plot. In the same league as John Woo. The older they get, their movie has lost its magic.

This movie would have been awesome if you did not know that Mr Hartnett is the villain. So you'd be in the disposition as the daughter. Bewildered by all the antics of her dad, getting weirder and weirder by the minute. Unfortunately the twist was already given away in the movie trailer. So you ended up waiting to see what he will do next.

No tension, No surprises whatsoever. I find it dull. You will feel it as the movie crosses the one hour mark. And oh no, it does not end there. The movie goes on to another elaborate plot.

While the little girl and Josh stole the show, the other actors seems to be mediocre. Especially the profiler, she seems to be in a Shakespearean theatre. Her accent and delivery is too stagey.
