Brilio.net - Indonesian cinema will once again be enlivened by the horror film presented by IDN Pictures, entitled Satan's Market. Ready to be shown in cinemas on February 29 2024, IDN Pictures has officially released the poster and official trailer for Pasar Satan which contains tense scenes from the players. This horror film is inspired by a true story that explores the famous myth, namely the devil's market.
Satan's Market is a legend that is popular, especially in several mountainous areas in Indonesia. This place is believed to be the residence of supernatural beings who sell supernatural goods or services.
Mysterious stories often occur at Satan's Market, including stories of people disappearing after visiting the place or experiencing horror experiences in the surrounding area. This is often a warning about the dangers of the supernatural and the importance of protecting oneself from the temptations of darkness.

The trailer for the film Satan's Market shows video footage that makes you goosebumps and makes you curious, like a real event. The reason is that these scenes highlight the story of four horror vloggers consisting of Tamara (Audi Marissa), Kevin (Roy Sungkono), Yunus (Prince Lantang), and Caca (Shindy Huang).
They explore a forest and meet the original appearance of the devils in an area called the Devil's Market. The four of them then get lost and have to find a way out. Terror became increasingly real in front of them. The demons appeared and the lives of the four vloggers were threatened.
Now we are heading to a place that is legendary. "But not a single person returned from there with evidence," said Tamara in a video vlog.
Only Tamara (Audi Marissa) is the key witness. He survived the threat at the Devil's Market on the mountain. Until finally Tamara had to face a series of questions from the police, to prove what happened to Tamara's three missing friends.
Pasar Satan is director Vishnu Surya Pratama's debut in a feature-length horror film, after previously being known for short works and documentaries. Assisted by producer Susanti Dewi and IDN Pictures, Wisnu hopes that this film will not only entertain but also raise issues that are relevant to Indonesian society, including the cancel culture phenomenon which is the background to the story of Pasar Satan.
"The phenomenon of getting viewers, how to become famous, is sometimes done in ways such as fake stories, stories that are forced to exist, for the sake of content. "Meanwhile, sometimes when people make mistakes they are also canceled and bullied heavily on social media," said Director Wisnu Surya Pratama.
Producer and Head of IDN Pictures Susanti Dewi explained how film has become a medium for conveying issues that are close to Indonesian society in the current era.
"With the issues we want to convey, we think film can be an important medium for self-criticism of society but also remains entertaining. The Satan Market film will present a different horror. "Very close to our lives today, inspired by true stories and myths about the Satan Market," he said.
IDN Media's Head of Communications, Kania Aisha Pasaman, is very happy to be able to present another new film with a horror feel that is thick with Indonesian culture and myth. This film is not only the beginning of a series of fresh works that we will present in 2024, but is also expected to bring a different storytelling nuance than before, becoming a pleasant entertainment to welcome the start of this year.
Apart from starring Audi Marissa, Roy Sungkono, Pangeran Lantang, and Shindy Huang, the horror film Pasar Satan also stars Michelle Tahalea, Kiki Narendra, Agni Pratistha, Epy Kusnandar, Fangtatis, and Fajar Gomez.
