Producer of the horror film 'Kuasa Gelap' Robert Ronny admitted that since watching the film 'The Exorcist', he dreamed of watching an Indonesian horror film with a Catholic exorcism theme.

"Hopefully the film 'Kuasa Gelap', which explores the ritual of exorcism in the Catholic religion, will make the Indonesian horror genre richer and more relevant for all audiences," he was quoted as saying by brilio.net from a press release, Wednesday (7/8).
Meanwhile, director Bobby Prasetyo admitted that he created a tense and authentic atmosphere through the real experience of exorcism in Indonesia.
