Siksa Neraka

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.

I rate it 9 because it is worth watching for me. I think in today's world where people don't know bounds to bad things, it's worth looking into ourselves what wrong are we doing to ourselves in the race of lives to get pompous and lavish. It's a Imaan refreshing for most of us so that we can reflect ourselves at moments. The lead female actress I have seen in many indonesian movies, Indeed she is a good actress and four siblings have also done justice to the role. These type of movies should be made more often. Thank you Indonesia, producers, directors, writer and all those who contributed to this movie and also all those who understood the message of the movie. *********

This is a hard one to rate. It's a low budget movie that doesn't quite pull off being "good". But it's not awful either.

I've never seen anything quite like it before. A lot of my 7/10 score is originality bonus! It might be the first Indonesian film I've seen, and the first horror-esque film with Islam as the faith of focus rather than Christianity. All the main actors do a decent job - no-one is pretending it's Hollywood blockbuster and there's a kind of simple charm to it because of that. There was one particular scene that actually made me feel sick, and again I think that's a first!

The storyline is problematic morally, and too obvious with no subtly in subtext, but then many movies in this kind of genre are like that. It was kinda refreshing to watch something that I didn't feel I'd already seen before several times over.

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.

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.
