Brilio.net - What happens if while watching a film, you are presented with a story that makes you question your own faith? Yep, you can enjoy this film during Eid 2024. To be precise, through the religious horror film entitled "Siksa Kubur" by Joko Anwar. This film, produced by Come and See Pictures, has released a gripping teaser trailer
As is known, this production house has always been successful both commercially and in awards through Indonesian horror films. Like in the films "Servant of Satan", "Perempuan Tanah Jahanam", and "Forbidden Door". So, the film "Siksa Kubur" will present a more realistic experience of terror and will directly penetrate the hearts and minds of the audience.
This time, Joko Anwar wants to make a horror film that is closer to Indonesian society. This film was also made for those who do not believe in the torment of the grave. This film will answer questions from many groups who often say that horror films always contain demons. With its new form and fresh perspective, Siksa Kubur will become a new benchmark for Indonesian cinema.
This is my 10th film. "After 20 years of working as a writer and director, I feel like I want to make a film that has more meaning, is more mature, and in terms of story and character development is stronger than my previous films," said Joko Anwar, quoted by brilio.net from a press release, Thursday (22/2).

Instead of just presenting jumpscares and sadism, Siksa Kubur will terrify the audience to the point where they question their faith after watching this film. Not relying entirely on CGI, the film Siksa Kubur uses practical effects to achieve maximum anxiety.
The biggest challenge was how to make all aspects of this film feel real. How can we make the audience believe that the torment of the grave exists." Joko Anwar's story.
Apart from that, the sound system, which has always been a strong element, also comes with a gripping design.
Half the storytelling in this film is in the sound system. We want the audience to feel like they are inside the events that the characters experience, including in the grave." Joko said.
