    If you want a good old-fashioned horror movie that heard about innovative ideas in the zombie genre and wanted nothing to do with them, THE ELIXIR (2025) is pretty super.

    #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched #filmsky #moviesky Pretty interesting movies this past week. I didn't even finish The Elixir because of how frustratingly stupid the protagonists were. But Hardware is a very interesting movie and so was the Orphanage (albeit a tad slow).

    It changes based on my mood - but one of my favourites that got me into all this Jekyll/Hyde and so I love the Elixir. The movie awakened something in me and I became hooked on the idea of a drug that can change your gender and make you feel different. If I'd been him Id have let Helen take over.

    Went w/ an Indonesian horror movie tonight - The Elixir. A family run herbal medicine company creates a ‘concoction that will change the world’ w/ only 1 major side effect, it turns people into ‘rage virus’ zombies who are easily distracted by rain & ‘sky flowers’. #HorrorMovies

    Watched The Elixir (2025)....I've seen so many zombie movies that you have to either have characters I care to follow or do something new with a zombie movie. The Elixir does neither and is ultimately a boring film for that.

    Watched The Elixir, never has a movie been so pretty and the protagonists so stupid. It's all bad choices all the time, and whilst I get that, they live in a world without zombie lore they still make awful choices from any normal self-preservation standard. Really took me out of it.

    2. Abadi Nan Jaya (The Elixir) (2025). There are many bonkers Indonesian horror films but I think this is a first attempt in the modern zombie genre. Relentless action, good effects, fun shocks! A dysfunctional family business goes awry, and a village in Sleman pays the price with a zombie outbreak.

    This isn’t the first Indonesian zombie movie, but probably the most proper one so far. The thing is, it actually has a lot of potential to be something great — too bad the execution feels kinda shallow. It’s gory and artistically disturbing, the local culture vibes are there too. I just wish the Jamu thing was explored deeper, ‘cause that could’ve made it stand out instead of feeling like just another zombie flick. Still, I gotta say I like the character drama — they’re pretty complex. It’s…
