As an Indonesian myself, I'm proud that this movie is known internationally especially for this channel. It was like the movie that broke new ground for Indonesian horror movies standard, since then tons of horror movies in Indonesia tend to copied whatever Satan's Slaves did and failed miserably. The director, Joko Anwar is truly one of a kind in the Indonesian film industry, he's a saviour especially in the horror genre. His level is unprecedented compare to most Indonesian directors working today. Also for those who don't know, this is a remake of the classic 80s Indonesian horror of the same name. In terms of remakes, this is easily one of my favourites
This film is excellent, even if it is a remake of an Indonesian horror classic! Of course now I have to go watch the original film 😁 Any reccomendations for more Indonesian films I should watch?
Every once in a while, I find myself watching these, and still get scared from the movies, even though it’s just you explaining them. Well done to the movie makers.
Listening to FF review random movies i either already seen or will never watch, has really become a comfort 😂 I watch every upload, really live for these breakdowns on my down time haha. Him, Dead Meat, & CZWorld are my horror movie trifecta
Indonesian ghost "Pocong" is sort of equivalent to a mummy/zombie. It is because a tradition to fully shroud a dead body in a white burial sheet before being buried. Hence, pocong is always depicted as a "mummy-like" white shrouded ghost with mangled face
@@destructo2300 pocongs are basically evil djinns that can shapeshift to human's worst fear according to what local people believe that remind them of death, it may have different non-mangled faces but most accounts say they have dark face
@@destructo2300well we indonesia burried our dead not in a coffin but in a kaffan its a white blanket of some kind well you guess it not in a coffin soo maggot yeah well you get it
Currently stuck in cairo airport for 12 hours, you can not understand my utter joy that you put out a video 🥹😂 just 11.5 hrs left now haha might ge rewatch all your old videos to pass some time !
I love this film, but I also adore the cinematography and scale upgrade on the sequel. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but the expansion of the lore was done amazingly. I’m so excited for what’s next. I hope Joko doesn’t mess up the build-up of the cult leaders.
Including the fact he also made 2 superhero movies, Gundala and Sri Asih, which, despite their flaws, are much better than most of the recent MCU installments.
Right! Like yeah I know I want a large ramen beef bowl doesn't mean I going to be able to make it like a chef or have the motivation to do it that night after work 🤣
4:51 the same prayer chants you're talking about after Marni's funeral is a common prayer we use to praise God that says "There's no god other than Allah". May sound boring to non-informed people, HOWEVER, this prayer is meant to show a huge irony for this grieving family since the parents intermingled with satan.
Holy damn, didnt expect to see this review over here.. IMO, this is better than the sequel..... Its more focused on the demon rather the origins of the cursed..
As soon as you said Joko Anwar directed it I knew I was in for some good shit! The man is on another level, not just in Indonesian horror, but horror in general! One day I'm gonna sit and do a marathon of all of his movies, but until then I greatly enjoy your summaries and explanations! Can't wait for the next one!
Hey just recently rewatched “the vanishing on 7th street” and was looking for an ending explained from you, I dare recommend it knowing your appreciation for films. Definitely a weird ending that leaves open to interpretation
I don't know what sign language they are using (probs the Indonesian version), but the sign that Ian uses at 22:21 when he is being pulled away looks exactly like ASL "I love you". Which is heartbreaking if that is ASL they're using, because imagine being 7 years old thinking you're going to die via demon-ghost and the last thing you want to say to your big brother is that you love him. Oof.
This plot is the same as Hereditary! But of course the trappings and characters and lore are different. It's really interesting seeing this great Indonesian director take the same pieces and make a different story.
This movie is not inspired by Hereditary. It was a remake of the original Satan's Slaves that came out in 1980, so if anything Hereditary may be inspired by this one lol
@@coyoteclockworkstudios3140Yep, Satan's Slaves came out in 2017 while Hereditary came out in 2018, though looking at how close the releases are it's possible that it's just similar by complete coincidence
@@jkeyf7159 It's actually a reboot and sort of prequel, the original I don't think is close to being the same in regards to the tone and cinematography from what I've read, but I've never watched it myself, so maybe.
"Satan.... and it's real hard to get rid of that guy" I always loved the dry, sarcastic humour you talk with when mentioning about horror tropes. Someone get this guy to write the dialogue for a goofy horror movie side character
Honestly, only complaint is they had the perfect set up to get the youngest son back, like Nayuta of Prophecy (Fujimoto's one shot about a demon girl). It'd especially fit in witht he themes of family sticking together.
The sequel is also a really solid film. It's a bit more humourus than the first one but it's still good. Joko kinda walk parallel to Ari aster in some ways. Another great Indonesian director is Timo Tjanjanto. He is mostly known in the US for making the best VHS segment together with Gareth Edwards (the cult one). His movies may the devil take you 1 and 2 are really good and Timo kinda is the Sam Raimi of indonesia. Especially how the tone of the MTDTY films evolve.
i remember i lived in Bali, Indonesia right before Satans slaves 2 released. watched the first one and loved it and went to watch the new one with my gf. turns out the one cinema i went to had no english subs 😂 enjoyed the film but strongly wished i learn indonesian. love this series
So happy you explain indonesia horror movie. Hope next you can do for communion and many more horror indo movie like Jelangkung, Modus Anomali, and others
This kid runs in. Sees his dead grandma's bell floating in the air and ringing, then dropping onto the ground. Then what? Just goes back to bed and acts like nothing ever happened the next morning?!?! You bet I'd been running straight outside and never coming back. What is wrong with that kid! 🤣 At least tell someone, anyone!
If you love Satan's Slave and Impetigore, just add another Indonesian horrors "The Queen of Black Magic", "Waktu Maghrib" and "Mangkujiwo" to your list, these are also good Indonesian horror movies
Got damn this is straight nightmare fuel. Usually this satanic demon stuff doesn’t rile me up especially American versions. But got damn this gave me the jumps a few times
I watched plan b before A😂❤you can tell when the artist themselves are invested in the story there vid is telling. A seemless blend and you could honestly watch front to back over and over and and get the same message that's what I LOVE. Instant replay
Me and my partner love your videos. We've become big fans of watching horror movies throughout the year. Last night we got about halfway through 'the Haunting of the Queen Anne" on Hulu and I had to stop. It has some very brutal scenes and we were a bit confused on quite a few narrative details, so if you haven't done a review for that movie yet we'd like to suggest it so we can know what happens or get some clarity on anything we missed!
There is lore that ghosts can kill the electronics in an engine (just like your flashlight dying) and thus the car needing to be turned over in a ghost movie is no surprise.
Recently saw Horror Mine's video on this one, a channel I can only recommend to every FoundFlix fan. He definetly hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves yet
Please make a video about the about the finnish lake murder movie. Bodom lake! I got excited when you made the video regarding the other finnish movie. ❤🎉
I have been watching this show for years and have yet to find a movie that makes no sense, (thanks to this channel), but at last I am stumped. Amelia's Children made me think," WTF did I just watch?" If you get around to it, this is a movie that at least one person has issues understanding.
Grandma was really putting in work. Imagine how strong her love and spirit were to hold back that many ghouls.
That's not too hard to imagine. It's almost as much as I love a phat ass.
