Haunted Tradition in a Modern Horror Tale
It's okay. Better than Malaysian horror flick.
Now now, before the bawang army attack me.. I am Malaysian kay. The movie is okay. A little jump scare here and there, but it was on point and well executed. What I love about this is the myth and mysteries throughout the movie, it keep you guessing. Some scene are depicting real life situations for single mothers. What comes after the reveal is what I don't like about the movie. The movie can be dragging with unnecessary scenes that contribute to no point to the ending. The ending is predictable including the mid-credit scene. The Wekasan Wednesday is interesting, I didnt know what it's about until I googled it.
That's all I guess. Its a good horror flick and room for improvement. At least better than most Malaysian's horror movie.
The sacrifices of a parent
I think that overall this was a successful film. I think it could have benefited greatly from being condensed a bit. The almost two hour run time felt drawn out and like they didn't have quite enough to fill it. The pacing was just a tad too slow but what they did have was interesting and spooky.
I wish they had leaned into the creepy folk lore they were working with opposed to relying on quite a few jump scares. Also the special effects weren't the best but can for sure be looked past. The acting over all was decent across the board with two really great, high intensity high emotion scenes from the son towards the end.
I am partial to foreign folk horror so I am giving this a six, but for most it would probably land around a 5. Would still recommend.
