Name: Gondoruwo
Genre: Horror
Duration: 1 h 24 min
Rating: 5.7
Cast: Rina Hassim, Torro Margens, Menzano

A bottom of the barrel piece of Indonesian horror that challenges viewers to not fall asleep while it focuses almost entirely on troubled family dynamics. There are some psychotronic moments of goodness but much of it is packed into the first 15 minutes, fooling the viewer into thinking that this is going to be a rip roaring good time of bloody murder and black magic. Alas the film quickly shifts gears to finger wag at the family for not being more religious; dropping its Amittyville Horror vibes for something that feels more akin to one of Ron Ormond's patience testing productions. Even when the supernatural aspects are brought back into focus they are so poorly done, lacking any sort of tension or atmosphere, that it is only marginally more exciting then seeing the tepid family drama unfold. Steer clear unless you are an Indo exploit comptionist.

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

A family moves into a house with a mysterious past only to learn that it is also home to evil forces.
