The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
I just bought this mega-rare horror film on Malaysian VCD and I'm highly impressed.Back in the 1950's "Pontianak" series was very popular in Malaysia.Cathay Keris was the first studio to produce 'pontianak' films."Pontianak","Dendam Pontianak" and "Sumpah Pontianak" all starred Maria Menado as the hideous vamp-the first ghoul in the history of Malaysian cinema.Unfortunately she didn't appear in "Pontianak Gua Musang",which was the sequel to "Pontianak Kembali".This time the female vampire lives in the cave.She is a pontianak who comes out after dark.She terrorizes local people,seducing men and then killing them.This mildly creepy Malaysian vampire flick is beautifully shot and well-directed by B.Narayan Rao.It also offers an insight into Malaysian local culture,so I was pleased.So if you like Asian horror give this forgotten gem a look.7 out of 10.
