BERANAK DALAM KUBUR

EMG Production
Starring by: Julia Perez


Story began with the scene of young lady which had been pregnant crawls the stair with blood flooding her body. Scared fill her face as agony of the death came across. After the affection the lady hanged by some rope. Like many, the scene used to catch audience’s first impression for the movie, the strategies was fine with me. But to be honest that’s very old-school.

The stories of the ghost continued on hospital scene when two male nurses have to enclose with the body of these dead hung-lady which, oddly, rise from the braincase and killed those two by no reason, except that they are on the wrong place at the wrong time there. 

That’s make me confused. Try to keep up with the movie I found that the ghost, like any others, murdered a boy and a girl that mocking her when they found her at abandons dead-chamber and finally murdered a man that hung and make her killed. So there’s a reason but I didn’t see it on the beginning.

The way she played and killed the companion that mocked her was fine but sometimes I found it to much. Creepy face that came so many times, weird sound and appearance adorn this movie but only once with a baby cries. It happened when this childbirth-grave’s lady performed for the main personage. But there’s no baby after that.

Why? It came across my mind!

The story is about childbirth-grave lady but why the babies not shown up every time she act? Is it because the babies dead which illustrated by the raise of the lady upon the grave with the stiff baby beside it? Dunno…

Only, without the babies the creature had no difference between any other like Suster Ngesot, Suster N, or The Grudge that rely on long black hair that draped face with long white clothes for the horror performance. 

So, c’mon man! Shown the babies...it would be dramatic for the last scene when she killed her evil boyfriend by grapping him across the floor and threw him up the car. I think it make the man understand that what he has done not only killed the girl but also murdered the human inside her. And that’s not humanism.

I also don’t quite understand why the creature spent so many times to played and killed the mocking friends but less of it to kill her boyfriend. Perhaps, if she kills the guy at first place the movie will finished earlier…ha ha ha…

Again, why the childbirth-grave lady killed the antagonist after her body was buried on her village? Isn’t her strength vanished when the body buried because she finally got what she wants?

This movie left me with shallow impression. Unnecessary question, thin content, and the fact that there’s nothing new with the effect made Beranak Dalam Kubur just become a weak material that will be forgotten the next day. 

I also got dissapointed because when I enter the cinema, I wonder for the next agenda of the old movies – Beranak Dalam Kubur that starring by Suzana “The Indonesian Horror Queen” – but this movie only took the title not the contain, may be to repeat the success of the first, there’s no connection between these two movies, that’s why it’s difficult to understand why the topic had choose.
