The Indonesian horror film Suzzanna: Kliwon Friday Night is an example of a film that might entertain more in cinemas when you watch it with a crowd full of strangers than it does on Netflix. Sitting in your room, you might not feel what the film was going for. Directed by Guntur Soeharjanto, Suzzanna: Kliwon Friday Night is gory where it needs to be and also has that comedic touch, reminiscent of classical horror films from Hollywood. The story of the film is pretty straightforward, but with proper execution, the idea is brought to fruition. The film confuses in the beginning about if it’s going towards more of a ‘ghostly’ universe, but then mixes it with body horror. The performances in this film will be polarizing, but I feel Luna Maya, the Indonesian star, hits the perfect note for this film.

Among the most popular myths in Indonesian folklore, the rampaging spirit of a sundelbolong has persisted in the country's history and culture for many years. Essentially taking the term as ‘Ghost with Hole' for the being's physical appearance as a young, dark-haired woman who was a prostitute in life who died while pregnant, the hole refers to the spot in the person's back where the fetus emerged from her body as the rest of the woman looks as she was when she was alive. The arrival of this film in the early 1980s in the middle of the country's exploitation and horror explosion served it's star Suzzanna as a genre icon in her home country as “Sundelbolong” was an unmitigated smash, terrifying generations and serving as a forerunner for numerous Asian horror films to come following its release.

Season 2 of “Sabrina” finds the heroine exploring her darker side, caught between a love triangle while trying to hold on to her mortal friendships. “Kevin Hart: Irresponsible” features the comedian entertaining a sold-out audience of 15,000 at London’s O2 Arena.
