Le Troisième OEil

The movie possesses some character traits that are similar to the Insidious movies and there are some decent scares and innovative ideas, however there's also some pretty bad effects that really dragged down the movies watching experience and were distracting in otherwise tense and scary scenes. The overall story is familiar and with some decent twists and turns, that heightened the watching experience. Overall it's a decent film if you lower your expectations and have nothing else to watch. On the other hand there are quite a few Indonesian horror flicks that are way more enjoyable and less cheap. [5,4/10]

I'm building up a real appreciation for Indonesian cinema, sure the movies are hardly ground breaking but they're at least consistent which is more than can be said for the US.

It tells the story of a girl who see's spirits and is being tormented by one in her old family home which she is forced to return to after her parents pass away.

With a fantastic lead and some genuine creepy moments the 3rd Eye succeeds in doing everything it set out to do. I'd say that Indonesian horror takes influences from both the US and Asia so expect to see many of the usual tropes and the Japanese insistence of having the creepy long black haired antagonists.

I was quite shocked at several points throughout the film how creepy and how scary it was, they played it perfectly. But then it hits the half way mark and the films quality dips heavily, it begins to take itself a tad seriously and fails to deliver.

By the end I was happy at some of the incredible sequences that the movie had presented me with but saddened that it hadn't been more consistent. If the whole movie had been like the first half I'd be likely ranting and raving about how great it is.

The 3rd Eye is another solid but flawed bit of Indonesian horror, if you like one you'll likely like them all.

The Good:

I'm still in awe over Indonesian architecture

Jessica Mila

Some genuine tension

Great visuals

The Bad:

This "everyone in Indonesia is wealthy" thing is getting silly

Some ropey sfx

I saw this for the first time recently. Basically it is an Indonesian version of Insidious (it borrows the astral project stuff) but this shud not deter horror movie fans to skip this cos this one is scary with creepy atmosphere, lots of ghosts, some violent stuff n a good twist. The bed levitating scene is straight outta Exorcist but this time the bed almost touches the ceiling.

A young girl has mysterious powers which enables her to see the supernatural world. As a kid she had a hard time convincing her parents and elder sister about the sightings but 12 years later, her elder sister too, starts seeing malevolent beings inside their house.

The movie is a decent horror with many scary parts in it!! everything was perfect but i don't understand why the police didn't showup when a man got brutally killed in the open place!!! besides that its a perfect horror movie to be enjoyed!!

Don't listen to the other guy above giving it a 1 star. The acting is fine. CGI is bad at some scenes though. Many jump scares, and it's good. Good plot. Too bad if haunted houses are "old and boring" for you. Overall it's an OK movie, not bad by any means.
