‘Ghost in the Cell’ Is the Ultra-Gory Feel-Good Movie of the Year
Fans of Indonesian horror know the name Joko Anwar. He’s a leading force in the country’s burgeoning genre scene, and while his films don’t always get stateside releases, the ones we’ve gotten to see have been standouts. That includes 2017’s Satan’s Slaves and its 2022 sequel, 2019’s Impetigore, and 2024’s Grave Torture.
