After
a disturbance in a bookstore, Fred steals an old, discarded book. It
turns out to be an ancient cursed manual on how to communicate with
Satan. Fred and his friends, Vinis and Dilo, suddenly find themselves
captured by the book and evil witch Jingga who wrote it. To free themselves
from the demon-infested world around them, they enlist the help of a
monk. But the boys soon learn that the only path back to sanity is the
completion of the 13 commandments dictated by the book. They recruit
three female friends for a seance to complete the rituals. But each
commandment brings them closer to destruction. The rituals, as demanded
by the book, range from moderate [the girls taking off their panties
and wearing them on their head, see pic below right] to cruel
[cutting off the head of a black cat] to the extreme [rape the person
to your left who, in Dilo's case, is his male friend Fred!]. The whole
thing reaches an unexpected conclusion.
Director
A. Lung Wong is actually Hong Kong actor/director/choreographer Jimmy
Lung Fong (best known for his work in LEOPARD
HUNTING and KICK
BOXER'S TEARS). He also had a brief HK singing career under
the alias Jimmy Lee. Mr Wong died from lung cancer in November 2008
at age 56.
The
lead actress is Debby Ayu, playing Tera here. She is a popular Indonesian
starlet who also headlined in VIOLATED
BRIDE OF BLUE BEACH and VIRGIN
BEACH CREATURE. Co-star Febriyane (playing the beautifully evil
witch Putri Jingga) was also in the aforementioned VIRGIN
BEACH CREATURE and the shocker CRAWLING
FROM THE MUD. Five Vi receives a strong credit position
even though she's only in the opening segment. After making this movie,
she found fame with TRAGIC
SECRET OF CLOVER BRIDGE which resulted in the more impressive
billing sequence here.
Incidentally,
the producer Ki Kusumo (also playing the role of the monk here) claims
this movie is based on a true story. And, while promoting the film,
he warned people against attempting any of the rituals. "So don't
even try to summon the devil at home," he said at the premiere
in Jakarta.
