🎬 Suster Keramas (2009)
Suster Keramas (2009) is a unique blend of horror and comedy from Indonesia, set within the unsettling walls of a quiet hospital. While its title, The Shampooing Nurse, may suggest something light, the film delivers a mix of eerie suspense and oddball humor that makes it stand out.
The plot centers on a group of young friends whose peaceful lives are interrupted by the appearance of a mysterious nurse. As they investigate the nurse’s tragic past, strange phenomena begin to unfold — from unsettling dreams to unexplained events within the hospital.
The film plays with contrast: bright hospital lights versus dark secrets, silence broken by sudden appearances, and fear balanced by unexpected comedic moments. While the scares are relatively mild, the film successfully maintains a mysterious atmosphere that keeps viewers intrigued.
Visually, Suster Keramas uses tight hallways, cold lighting, and quiet tension to create unease. The performances are playful yet grounded, especially in moments when characters try to make sense of what’s real and what’s imagined.
Though not a traditional horror film, it offers a quirky take on ghost stories — one that entertains without taking itself too seriously.
