This is a pretty darn good movie!! I'm not much of a big witch/ghost horror fan, but this flick took me by surprise. The story is actually quite good: two Indonesian female friends decide to take their chances in life by returning to the large property that one of them recognizes on a picture as being her own family's house. This is the chance of a lifetime to start all over again. With her best friend, the two travel to a backwoods rural village, deep in the jungle, where life is being lived very differently from what both are used to. Witches, old curses, weird traditions still live on them, and both girls may well at the center of these...

The two lead actresses play a key role in making this horror movie an enjoyable ride, and most of all, the shooting is absolutely mesmerizing! It's not everyday that we get a chance to "visit" the beauty of the deep Indonesian/Javanese countryside, its jungles, waterfalls, narrow tracks, backwoods villages, customs, spirits, witches... Seriously, it's a must-see movie! Well done, dudes!

It's clear to me that the future of cinema no longer resides in the US: the Koreans, Indonesians, Thai, Russians, Brits, French and even the Chinese are starting to break new grounds and it's a very promising trend!
