Makmum

Some moral messages that I get from this film :

1. Rules are nothing but made to be obeyed and applied by all citizens or the person concerned, not to be violated.

2. Perform the Tahajjud prayer in the last third of the night to draw yourself closer to your Lord.

3. Pray solemnly 'even though you feel disturbed or feel uncomfortable with yourself.

4. Don't act arbitrarily until you know what's really going on.

5. Strengthen your faith by getting closer to God so that you are not easily disturbed by Satan or possessed by him.

6. Do not be too harsh in educating children and do not be too pampered, so that children can be disciplined.

7. Pay your bills on time.

8. Keep your surroundings clean so you don't become a hotbed of disease.

9. Take care and love your child with all your heart while he is still alive.

10. The Koran can remind you of God and can calm a restless heart.

11. Teach and model good manners to your children, how to be civilized to their peers, parents, teachers, and all.

12. Choose a leader who can protect the people or their members well and can set a good example.

13. Read a prayer when you want to enter the bathroom or toilet.

14. We must believe in the existence of ghosts or supernatural beings even though they cannot be seen with the naked eye.

15. Do not put the fire near flammable objects because the fire can spread and burn everything without residue.

16. Bury the dead properly, don't just bury them.

17. Don't be afraid to tell the truth even if it hurts you.

18. Fight Satan by reciting dhikr and reading the Qur'an to God, because everything will be subject to God.

19. Patience is the best attitude than revenge.

20. Build a harmonious atmosphere in a family.

Honestly I had high expectations for this movie since many says it's scary but it's so confusing and I dont get how the story line has anything to do with makmum itself. Many people say it's scary but it's really not that scary in my opinion.

Even a student's final project is better than this film, very messy, everything from writing the script, taking pictures, editing as if not intending to make a film.

As too many horror movies in cinema nowadays, I chose "Makmum" as one of the best. The good things about this feature is it has very own style of horror presentation . The jump scare was on point. Even though the storyline is predictable but overall you will still enjoy watching this movie. On acting level, it didn't reach up to the highest level but yet the casts performances still satisfactory. The cinematography works considered so amazing for this movie. Anyhow for those who really into 'ghost' story, this movie won't help much to satisfy you because it doesn't highlight ghosts so much. Some area you might feel slight boring if you're not patient enough to wait for the next scene. By the way, this movie absolutely worth for your money. Do not put too high expectations for this flick. It's maybe slightly different than other horror movie but after all it still a pretty scary movie. Happy watching!

I'm still confused as to why there is a sequel of this movie. Weird plot, does not make a sense. The only good thing of this movie is trailer. Thats why I give 2 rating.
