User Reviews
HorrorHoarder – 7/10
“The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the use of traditional mysticism really sets it apart. It's not the scariest, but the slow burn and eerie imagery kept me hooked. A solid find for fans of classic Asian horror.”
ShadowDancer – 5/10
“I appreciate the attempt at a curse-based plot, but the pacing dragged in the middle and the acting felt a bit dated. Still, the final act delivers some creepy moments that make it worth a watch if you're in the mood for retro horror.”
CultCinemaQueen – 8/10
“As a lover of obscure supernatural films, this hit the spot. The revenge story is simple but effective, and the practical effects have that charmingly gruesome old-school vibe. Definitely one of the better Indonesian horrors of its era.”
ScaredyCat99 – 4/10
“It had a promising premise, but I found it more melodramatic than scary. The plot twists felt predictable, and the scares were more jump-heavy than psychological. I wanted to like it more, but it just didn't do it for me.”
