I recently viewed the Malaysian film ROH (2019) on Prime. The storyline revolves around a single mom raising her children in a small hut outside her village. Their lives take a dark turn when a seemingly needy little girl arrives on their doorstep, unknowingly bringing a curse that threatens their survival.
Directed by Emir Ezwan in his directorial debut, the film stars Putri Qaseh (Walid), Namron (Gadoh), Farah Ahmad (Jibam), and Harith Haziq (Beautiful Pain).
This is a meticulously crafted film with impressive settings, strong acting, and a compelling storyline. The premise is intriguing, establishing effective family dynamics. The little girl adds a creepy element, and the "when the moon is full, all of you will die" scene is well-executed. The use of camera angles and lighting effectively enhances the eerie atmosphere, while the kills feature solid blood splatter and gore. Scenes like the rough head-banging and the person set on fire are notably well-done. The conclusion is sad, sudden, and intense, adding depth to the narrative.
In conclusion, ROH stands out as a unique addition to the horror genre, offering solid horror elements that make it a must-see for fans of the genre. I would give it a score of 7.5/10 and strongly recommend it.
