Ratu Ilmu Hitam plot
Hanif, paterfamilias of the seemingly perfect family, takes his wife and three children to the orphanage where he grew up. Not because they didn't have better vacation plans, but because Mr. Bandi, a stand-in father figure to Hanif, is on his deathbed. His two best friends, who also grew up in the orphanage, accompany him to say goodbye to the old man.

A tight 3* for this Indonesian horror film. It is by no means the best horror film from the East. After a dragging introduction, the horror follows, but it is sometimes so clumsy and cheaply made that it became grotesque. With a witch from the carnival shop and CGI blood, it was sometimes difficult to sympathize with the characters. What happened to them left me cold. The mystery could also be developed a little better.

Of course, it is always a matter of waiting to see how a director's talent develops when they separate from their friend/partner (Timo Tjahjanto), but in the case of Kimo Stamboel it turned out perfectly. The Queen of Black Magic benefits from a nice freaky event and a lot of visual creativity, which certainly makes the finale an excellent one. The mediocre acting and the uninteresting lead-up can be forgiven more quickly, but Stamboel can still develop a bit further with the computer effects. Once the horror comes out of the closet, the film turns out to be a nice reunion and is not boring for a moment, and Stamboel also provides it with enough filth and gore to stand out even more. Fun and entertaining horror fun with its own face, that's how I personally like it.
