I’m no expert on Indonesian horror cinema, but there is one common thing in all the Indonesian horror films I’ve watched thus far on Netflix: they all revolve around sexual abuse. Despite being a fan of disturbing movies, this is something I’m not keen on watching. Mantra Surugana is an uninspired tale of a new college student, Tantri, who learns of some supernatural happenings in her dormitory soon after reaching college. As a young child, she watched her father try to kill himself with a knife before speaking a prayer and burning himself to death. If ugly makeup and jump scares are frightening to you, then this movie might have your heart pumping; however, if you’re like me, you’ll just be raising eyebrows at the terrible special effects and bad writing. Big sexual violence trigger warning, though.
