While it doesn’t focus on the gory details, when they happen, they are realistic enough to make you turn your head. If you like stories that are supernatural-occult-paranormal-possession-zombies movies, then you are going to love Pengabdi Setan.

This film had some really good scares... but it did kind of dip in and out as it went the structure was kind of all over the place which I don't mind... it is the unexpected that is the scariest.

Satan's Slaves is a gem worth seeking out for fans of the Conjuring or Insidious series. It's a captivating watch to see how other cultures play with some of the same tropes we have grown accustomed to here in the US.

... it fell flat for the most part with the exception of a couple of performances and the visual work of cinematographer Ical Tanjung.

For it to find a wide audience speaks to its quality, sure, but also to the urgency with which we all need to pay attention to things like canaries in coal mines.

I mean it’s not great but definitely not horrible either, reviews overhyped it.

People reviewing this should be studied. Worst horror movie of all time.

I think this movie is boring, slow paced and not scary at all. I suggest skipping it.

One can say that religious zealotry in Indonesia is not as overtly explicit as in the USA, but still... It makes me want to be a satanist myself

A family in a critical economic situation, with a terminally ill mother and in a gloomy house in the middle of the Indonesian countryside. The house and the disturbing atmosphere as the main tool to generate terror “beyond the family conflict.” A movie that I never tire of revisiting. I like its second part just as much or more than this first Satan's Slaves.

I have recently discovered the work of Joko Anwar. I have binged all of his movies, this and the sequel being my favourites.
