Os Escravos de Satanás

This is simply one of the best horror movies i ever seen. The colours, the story, the atmosphere, and the cinematography just engaging. This film is not about a jumpscare scene but more than that. Every chilling scene build with a gorgeous tone of colours. This is classic and do yourself a favour to watch it. Worth every penny and i think i should watch it again for the 2nd time. For Joko Anwar you have done a great job! Love it!

This remake horror movie is fantastic. I like this kind of horror. Very spooky atmosphere. Good job to director. Jump scare everywhere. Good acting and storyline. Recommended. Well done looking for next sequel.

With many costume changes for Rini, must have had a big wardrobe or was prone to spillage. That said, a visit to Indonesia pays dividends in a genuinely jumpy Horror film with great special effects that pinches plots a plenty: only to be expected living next to a cemetery, but just about gets away with it.

This is my first Indonesian horror film n what an awesome horror film it turned out to b. After reading that it is a slow burner my excitement dropped but once I played the dvd, from the settings I cud smell that it's gonna b creepy. A big ol house situated next to the cemetary in the rural Jakarta is sufficiently eerie. The performances, from the star cast, especially the small kid n the elder sis are grounded and very convincing. The director's approach to the suspense and horror is slow-building but very very creepy. He shud b given a chance to direct a part of the franchise from the Insidious, Conjuring, Annabelle series. The story is very intriguing. The stark imagery and demonic cutaways were implemented to marvelous effect. Indeed a very scary, spine-tingling n dreadful film. The interior lighting and shading at the house to some of the daytime n nighttime cemetary exteriors provided some beautiful photography. The old house with the many rooms, a water well inside its premise n an olden era bathroom all added an eerie feel. The demons with their umbrella's in the cemetary was top notch scary stuff. Some solid jump scares as well as some other stylish cuts help create a sense of terror. The film is full of non cliches jump scares which r creepy n terrifying. There is one very violent n detailed gruesome scene which i don't wanna spoil.

Actually this is a remake from a movie with the same title, "Pengabdi Setan", back in 1980. As the director, Joko Anwar successfully make this movie as a great breakthrough for Indonesia's horror movie industry. Great cinematography, great story line, great plot twist and Joko Anwar success in bringing back the 1980's atmospheres to the movie (because the movie setting is Indonesia at 1980's). Joko Anwar is not just rely on jump scares, but he's also managed this movie as creepy as hell.

The movie was begin with the mother who gets mysterious illness, so the entire family, the father, Rini, Toni, Bondi, and Ian was struggle and need more money for the medicine. After the mother's dead, their father decided to go to the city for a job to fulfill their needs and leaving the kids in the house. That's when the terror begins.

Rini, Toni, Bondi and Ian can be called as the main characters of this movie. But Rini, can be the leader, because she's the oldest daughter of the family and played a big parts of the movie.

The story is all about how the family stick together and tells their mother who haunted them for not to take one of their siblings, or not to take all of them.

Overall, this is the best Indonesia's horror movie of all time. And it can be one of "must watch" movie list for horror movie lovers. It will never disappoint you!
