Susuk (2008)

I want to pamper myself yesterday. So I’ve decided to go for a movie at BJ Complex which is situated next to my condominium. Since there’s no other good movies left, I’ve decided to watch the Susuk movie.

I’ve read a lot about susuk through Mastika and other sources but I never watched the real thing. Its hard to understand how those gold or silver needle, planted under human skin. There’s no documentary yet so far in Malaysia. I wonder if Misteri Nusantara (TV3) has a documentary about it.

When I watch the making of Susuk at TV, the director, Naeim Ghalili and Amir Muhammad claimed that they wanted to explore a new theme for a film which has become a taboo in our society. That’s why they choose Susuk as their theme.

About the storyline, I simply love it because it simple yet it also has some element of surprise and suspens. Despite having the same characters in Ezora drama such as Diana Rafar and Anne Abdullah as Soraya and Mona. Diana Rafar is a good actress. Both in the drama and also in this movie.

However the ending of this movie left the audience a big question mark. Is there any sequel for this movie?

I also like the CGI approach in this movie which is more than enough to show the effect of the susuk. The beheaded chinese lady part was pretty scary. Another one is when the needles came out from Sofea Jane’s pretty face. That’s why I mention here, Susuk movie has set a certain benchmark for Malay film industry. Beside that, I also love the camera as well as the transitions which simply use creative CGI to illustrate between the scenes.

I guess its worth watching the movie because I’ve got RM6 ticket every Wednesday.
