As I stumbled upon the 2017 Indonesian horror movie "Danur" by random chance here in 2023, I opted to sit down and watch it on account of it being an Asian horror movie that I hadn't already seen. Sure, I hadn't even heard about this movie, so I virtually didn't know what I was in for, nor did I have any expectations. So writers Lele Laila, Ferry Lesmana and Risa Saraswati had every opportunity to entertain me.

"Danur" was a semi-watchable movie. I mean, it wasn't a particularly thrilling or scary story, and much of the things that the characters in the movie did made little or no sense from a logical viewpoint, so it was somewhat of an awkward movie to sit through. I managed to endure the 74 minutes that director Awi Suryadi delivered, but I wasn't overly entertained.

The acting performances in "Danur" were okay. I wasn't impressed with what I witnessed, because the actors and actresses didn't have all that much of solid material to work with. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie.

Visually then "Danur" was mediocre. There were a couple of special effects throughout the course of the 74 minutes, so don't get your hopes up. The effects were fair enough, taking into consideration the production value of the movie.

For a horror movie then "Danur" came and went without leaving a lasting impression on me. It is not a movie that I will recommend for fans of the horror genre to rush out and get to watch.

My rating of "Danur" lands on a very generous four out of ten stars.

Danur is a small horror movie with a small plot,decent acting and choreography with again decent bgm

That's it the plot felt cute to me🙂😂 Plenty of jumpscares and if I am being totally honest with you one scene did get me🙂

Other than that it has nothing new to offer It clocks in around 75mins

I did like the ending it was cute🙂😂

So yeah an average experience

This movie is a novel adaptation and is based on real life story and experience of the author RISA SARASWATI who could see ghosts since she was a child and had befriended 5 of them🙂

I guess it was pretty popular back there in Indonesia coz there is a whole DANUR UNIVERSE which has 2 Danur sequels And 2 spinoff ASIH and it's sequel following the antagonist of Danur 2017.

I always look forward foreign horror flicks and when I saw this came on Netflix I thought this must be good since it was commercially successful in Indonesia. Sadly I was wrong. There was nothing remotely scary in this film and there's no background to the story, we're simply expected to watch and get scared. There are plenty of jump scares and boy are they loud. I'm not sure I understood anything other than ghosts running around. I suppose for Indonesian audiences this is a good horror attempt. But for us horror enthusiasts, this is a total waste of time. Thank me later.

Hackneyed, clumsily put together and without a single original element. I spent most of the film boredly deciding whether the girls' mother was hot or not. Save yourself the bother and watch a bad '80s slasher - it's bound to be more bearable. Awful.

As a lifelong horror geek, this movie didn't do much for me, cos it's pretty mainstream, but this doesn't mean it's a bad flick. The story is well executed, there are a few creepy scenes, and the performances are solid. It's a good watch, especially if you enjoy non-American horror.

"Danur" is a film that lacks consistency and inspiration, but it might appeal to those who appreciate its unique elements.

The movie focuses on three main aspects: its loud sound design, its reliance on jump scares, and Shareefa Daanish's performance as Asih, Indonesia's "Lady of Horror." The film heavily depends on sound to create tension, and once Asih appears, it turns into a scare-fest.

Shareefa Daanish, who appears in about half of the film, is the standout performer and the driving force behind its scares. The rest of the cast is generally average, with some uneven performances.

The film takes its time to build up, with a slow start focusing on Risa's "friends" before jumping forward in time to introduce an older Risa and her younger sister, Riri.

Despite some nice camera work and editing that enhance the scares, the movie's ending falls flat and feels poorly executed. However, the post-credit scene is worth watching.

Danur: I Can See Ghosts is an Indonesian horror film adapted from the true experiences of Risa Saraswati. The movie successfully creates an eerie atmosphere with dark cinematography and effective sound effects. Prilly Latuconsina's performance as Risa is convincing, capturing both emotion and tension. However, despite its intriguing premise, the repetitive use of jump scares feels less impactful. Some scenes also progress slowly, slightly reducing the suspense. The storyline could have explored the ghostly elements more deeply to enhance the mystery. Nevertheless, Danur remains a worthy local horror film for fans of the genre.
