Ghost in the Cell
from Asian Action Cast Hosted by Asian Action Cast
The Asian Action Cast gets locked up with a Ghost in the Cell in 2026! Joko Anwar’s Indonesian horror comedy ("horredy"?) ticks all the boxes in delivering a gorefest of creative killings while ratcheting up the tension, and the comedy too, in one of the year's most satisfying action flicks. Delivered by a masterful and confident story teller, this movie follows the exploits of a vengeful spirit linked to innocent journalist Dimas, unleashed in a corrupt Indonesian prison. Whilst it is an allegory for political corruption, Joko cleverly never lets this gets in the way of showing a good time. Truly another gem to come out of Indonesia there are some laugh out loud moments, as well as horror exclamations as we clawed our way out of the blood spattered walls of the jail. A wonderfully thrilling good time. They knew what they were doing and did it well – so check it out.
