9/10
even better than the first one!
15 November 2020
Director Timo Tjahjanto does an amazing job with a sequel that manages to surpass the first film (which was released in 2018), in terms of horror, blood and outbursts of demonic possession. The main survivor of the first film is abducted and brought to an abandoned orphanage, in order to break a curse from beyond the grave. However, the team ends up resurrecting the ghost of the former owner, who was burned to death by the orphan kids. The movie has some nice references to THE EXORCIST and the first two EVIL DEAD films and doesn't shy away from moments of delirious horror, blood and gore, so it is highly recommended. The director has a lot of talent and love for the genre and -for me- this film is much better than the other two Indonesian horror movies released this year (IMPETIGORE and the reboot film THE QUEEN OF BLACK MAGIC). Horror fans with a taste for the bloody&macabre should definitely give it a try. My favorite tagline from the movie : the 'Satani Levitas!' spell. Oh, and the Moloch demon in the finale is just gorgeous...
