‘Respati’ – First Look at Indonesian Horror Movie About a Teen Who Can Enter the Nightmares of Others
Indonesian horror movies including Satan’s Slaves, May the Devil Take You, and Impetigore have been making waves in recent years, and the latest one to pop up on our radar is titled Respati. Variety shares the above first look image today, along with some new info.
Variety reports, “Barunson E&A, the production company behind Korean Oscar-winner Parasite, is investing in Base Entertainment’s upcoming Indonesian horror film Respati.”
The site notes that Barunson E&A will “take on worldwide sales duties and pre-sell rights at the upcoming European Film Market in Berlin,” which takes place later this month.
The upcoming film tells the story of a teenager with the ability to enter other people’s dreams. When he witnesses a dark spirit taking people’s lives in their dreams, he quickly realizes that it’s related to the mysterious deaths that are happening in the real world.
Sidharta Tata (Waktu Maghrib, Ali Topan) directed Respati. “We’ve had fun creating a fresh perspective on the horror film and looking forward to sharing it with everyone,” said Tata.
Base Entertainment also produced Joko Anwar’s aforementioned Impetigore.

“Old-school American horror is back as Adam Green’s iconic Hatchet series returns in a blood-soaked, fully Unrated collection, uniting all four films for the first time.
“Unleashed at a time when the fun of 80s slashers had all but disappeared from the cinematic landscape, Hatchet ushered in a new era of terror with its unapologetic brutality and introduction of Victor Crowley, the modern bogeyman, who ruthlessly hunts those who dare tread into his swamp. With each installment, the stakes escalate, delivering bigger, bloodier scares and a relentless barrage of inventive kills. So gather all your pieces, because it’s time to return to his swamp and learn once and for all that some legends truly never die.”
Other films coming soon from Dark Sky Selects include The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, and Faces of Death. Stay tuned for updates.
