Disc 3: Impetigore (2019)
Following Satan’s Slaves, his HBO Asia series Folklore and the superhero blockbuster Gundala, Joko Anwar returned to horror with this “relentlessly frightening” (Creepy Kingdom) love letter to the genre that premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and remains “a gruesome descent into madness that will leave your skin crawling” (Daily Dead): When a cynical young city woman travels to her remote ancestral village in search of an inheritance, she’ll instead unleash a legacy of dark tragedy, grim butchery and a grotesque family curse “dripping with otherworldly weirdness” (When It Was Cool). Tara Basro (Satan’s Slaves 1 & 2), Ario Bayu (The Queen of Black Magic) and Marissa Anita (Nightmares and Daydreams) star in the modern shock classic where “Anwar goes for broke in terms of gonzo bloodshed, over-the-top reveals and a ballsy approach to shattering cinematic taboos” (Bloody Disgusting), now presented from a master approved by the writer/director.
