Kutukan Arwah Santet

There’s a big secret Raymond hides before a series of deaths happen in campus. In a private party Beby, his girlfriend, sets Myrna up, her own friend. Firman, Myrna’s lover, forces her to have sex under the influence of drugs. Vaginismus happens, Myrna’s and Firman’s bodies can’t be separated. Firman is embarrassed, asking help from his friends, Johan and Fandy. Firman’s panic leads to Myrna’s death and the campus laboratory bears witness to a shameful tragedy. To remove evidence, Firman, Johan and Fandy bury Myrna’s body under a campus toilet.

Directed by Hanny Mustofa, Kutukan Arwah Santet leans on a strong ensemble — Julia Perez, Ruben Onsu, Ajeng Anjani — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2012.
