Storyline

Two newly weds Adjie and Astrid, along with 3 of their best friends decided to have an interstate road trip as a last attempt to reconcile Adjie with his estranged little sister Ladya. Their trip is however abruptly interrupted when they run into Maya, a strange girl out of nowhere, who wanders aimlessly into their path. "I've been robbed" is all she has to say. The friends unanimously decided to give her a ride to her isolated house by the end of the woods. Maya introduces Adjie and friends to her blue-blooded mother Dara, a woman of ageless enigma and few spoken words. Dara insists that their kindness should be repaid with a dinner feast. This is where the night turns into a crimson-hell for the 6 friends, who find themselves trapped and hunted down by Dara and her cult-like family of her three deadly protégés, born and raised to systematically eliminate unsuspecting passers-by for one nefarious reason. Slaughtered one by one, everybody will bleed, the darkest of nights never looked... Written by Anonymous

One of the scariest movie i ever watched
24 November 2013 | by (Malaysia) – See all my reviews

Well, i love horror movie. I think the latest Chucky 2013 stupid. Sorry for my bad English but my review is the true color of my honesty.

Had my chances to watch this movie last night as i never heard about this movie until someone mention this movie in a forum, saying my country banned this movie. I watch with high expectation and God, its crazy and scary and i wont say fun but this movie definitely not for pregnant woman, for one who cant accept the reality of horror and for one with faint heart or heart disease.

Its not a ghost story but related to black magic, cannibalism and such. From a country such as Malaysia and knowing that one such killer ever existed in my country (a movie named Dukun tells the true horror about the incident), Darah is crazy and believable.

God. Horror fan should add this movie in their top list.
