Repo Jack

Impetigore is captivating from the get-go. It starts with young Maya toiling away with her best friend Dini while working the night shift at a toll both. In a very creepy and gripping scene, she gets stalked and attacked by a random driver. This leads her to seek out a family house and rural village, taking a very authentic jaunt through local country scenes that are so exotic and realistic to South East Asia (I've been lucky enough to visit many countries in the region) it felt like I was there again. There is a huge tonal shift halfway through that could be jarring for some viewers, from chatty friends on a road trip to insanely gory and disturbing horror. There is a huge exposition dump at one point towards the end interrupted the narrative flow. But those are nitpicking points to a thoroughly entertaining romp through the Indonesian hinterlands.
