This horror film is not a film that is compared with serious horror films such as MATA BATIN, or MEREKA YANG TAK TERLIHAT, or Jailangkung. This Suzzana film is aimed at selling the nostalgia of the past in 1980 era.
In this movie, setting items ranging from cars, kitchen utensils, extinct President Taxi, all reminded of the past of the 80 era that triumphed with national films.
Honestly, I watched with family because of the star Luna Maya. Then, hope this film evokes memories of the 80th era national comedy horror film. Unfortunately, the director did not use the momentum of smart comedy in the middle of the film. When the helpers left the village due to fear, the acting of Asri Welas and Opi Kumis was actually good. The director should dig deeper into this intelligent situation comedy by exploring the appearance of Suzzana in front of the villagers, for example by buying raw Sate 200 with raw, or appearing to villagers with slapstick comedy cuteness before going back into the serious and scary scenes.
The director is carelesst and less able to take advantage of the spooky and comedy momentum that became the mainstay of Suzzana films and Indonesian horror films in the era of the 80s.

The make up, costumes, and sets are good. I should gives more thumbs up for the make up to be pretty similar with the late Suzana, although in some close up scenes it doesn't looks that smooth. There are some jokes that cracked me up. Overall I'm quite enjoyed wacthing it BUT the story could be better tho. I just found something missing in this film.
The film Suzzanna: Bernapas dalam Kubur is a clever attempt to revive the legendary Indonesian horror icon with a more modern touch. It offers the eerie, mysterious atmosphere of the 80s horror era, combined with vastly improved production quality. The film manages to immerse viewers in a consistently chilling and unsettling vibe throughout.
One of its strongest points lies in Luna Maya's performance as Suzzanna. She successfully embodies the haunting yet captivating aura of the legendary character. Her makeup, gestures, and speech closely resemble the original Suzzanna, enhancing the film's authenticity.
The movie also boasts well-executed cinematography, dim lighting, and a chilling musical score that support the classic horror feel. Some scenes maintain good tension, though a few jumpscares might feel predictable to seasoned horror fans.
The storyline is simple yet effective in creating suspense, although it leans towards melodrama and cliché at times. Nevertheless, for local horror enthusiasts, this film delivers an enjoyable, nostalgic experience.
I rate this film 7/10 for its success in reviving an Indonesian horror legend with solid production, even if it lacks groundbreaking surprises for the genre.

For a movie remaking and a tribute to the late legendary queen Suzanna, this film 'Bernapas dalam Kubur' is pretty awesome. Actress Luna Maya did her very best for the character Suzanna which is not easy I guess. Great story line and some disturbing violent scenes alert. Anyway, congrats to the whole movie team, cast and directors. Salam from Singapore.
What a shame, I've been watching a lot of Indonesian cinema lately and though not great they've been consistently watchable. This..........isn't.
It tells the story of a robbery gone wrong, a woman is dead and her spirit returns to haunt those who killed her. Simple concept, awful execution.
I'm not entirely sure what went wrong, yet on the flipside I'm pretty sure the answer is basically...........everything.
The cast were naff, the plot was generic, the script was really quite poor, the tone is inconsistent and the first word I'd use to describe it is boring. I was truly bored to tears which is alarming because stuff does happen, there is plenty to keep you occupied but it's just not all that interesting.
I'd say they dropped the ball but to be fair I'm not sure they had a ball here in the first place.
Indonesia has a fantastic movie industry, this is not an example of it.
The Good:
Not really
The Bad:
Remarkably boring
Not funny enough to be a comedy
Not serious enough to be a horror
Writing contradicts itself
Characters range from dull to annoying
