'Tis the season to be spooked out in the cinemas.
When it comes to horror movies, our local filmmakers sure do have a pretty good idea of how to send the chills up our spine. Here are the trailers for three titles that are set for a release soon in Malaysia.
Mistik Syirik Tahyul
The poster notes that this movie features five horror tales all told in one neat package. Unfortunately, there's not much information given on what the five stories are about.
Directed by M. Subash Mannan, the guy who helmed the award-winning film Pensil in 2008, Mistik, Syirik Tahyul is set to open on Oct 16. It stars the talented Mak Jah and Khatijah Tan, as well as Sura Sojangi, Sundraju, Naqia Nasution, Yasmin Khanif, Zakri Rozaini, Amethyst Leong, Cecilia Yan and the late Kalpana Sundraju, who passed away in August.
This movie is distributed by RenBash Entertainment.
Dendam Orang Mati
Annabelle's cousin, maybe?
Watch as a makeup-free (or so it looks like in the trailer) Lisa Surihani gets possessed by a revengeful spirit after waking up from a coma. This KRU Studios production is directed by Jason Chong, whose previous movies include last year's thriller Ular and Belukar (2010).
Fizz Fairuz plays Lisa's character's husband who seems to be keeping some secrets from his wife. There's also a creepy doll in this movie, which opens on Oct 23 nationwide.
Kelibat
Will this give you nightmares this weekend?
A big, scary-looking creaky old house is probably the best venue in which to set a horror film. The house featured in this movie even has an indoor pool right next to the dining room! Not sure why anyone would do that, though...
Kelibat revolves around a family of five who are forced to relocate to a secluded area no thanks to some bad business deals made by the father. The teenage children are not happy, and neither is the mother, who feels like she is being "followed" everywhere she turns in the house.
That should have flagged some kind of warning right there...
This Metrowealth movie is directed by Hashim Rejab and stars Fauzi Nawawi, Ellie Suriaty, Atikah Suhaime and Niezam Zaidi. We're not sure who plays the "other characters" in Kelibat. Opens Nov 6.
