Ira lives with her mother, Linda. One day, without any rational explanation, a mystical incident causes Linda to behave like a madwoman—suffering physically and frequently hallucinating. Unable to cope with her mother's condition, Ira asks her siblings, Ara and Ari, to come home and help take care of their mother. Unfortunately, fate has other plans, and Linda eventually passes away.

“Tenung” is not just a horror film—it’s a chilling glimpse into the dark folklore still alive in certain parts of Southeast Asia. The movie explores the terrifying realm of black magic (santet), with local supernatural elements such as the belief that a black cat stepping over a corpse can bring it back to life, and the haunting theme of suspended death (mati suri). One of the most spine-chilling scenes is when a character wrapped in burial cloth suddenly breathes again—after being stepped over by a black cat. Shocking and surreal, yet deeply rooted in local myth. With its dark visuals and suspenseful atmosphere, Tenung immerses you in a world of whispers, revenge, and forbidden rituals. But beyond the fear, the film invites viewers to reflect: do we still believe that ancient dark arts can reach into our lives? On a positive note, “Tenung” successfully brings indigenous mysticism into modern cinema without feeling cheap or exaggerated. The cast delivers solid performances, and the pacing keeps the tension alive from start to finish. Perfect for horror fans who crave something deeper than loud scares—Tenung offers a cultural horror rooted in fear, belief, and ancestral memory.
