Ghost in the Cell (2026) Review
There was a time during the 2010’s when Indonesia got tagged with the much bandied about label of action cinemas next big hope. However here in 2026, it’s become increasingly apparent that the hope which has been realised doesn’t belong to action cinema, but rather the Asian horror genre.

By Z Ravas It’s surprising that Iko Uwais’ 2025 directorial debut Timur dropped Stateside on VOD this week with little to no fanfare.
