There's
no plot deficiency here. If anything, it's quite the opposite. Too many
story tangents reside inside this Indonesian movie (at one point, even
Dracula inexplicably shows up to mutilate a young woman). Initially,
the plot centers on Brian, a man who doesn't understand why his girlfriend
doesn't want to 'get serious' (have sex) with him. Without realizing
that the problem lies squarely on his brutish behavior [no girlfriend
wants to get stabbed in the hand], Brian believes money and power will
win her over. While wandering through a nearby forest, Brian stumbles
upon Nilla, the Snake Queen, who promises great wealth if eliminates
her rival, the Snake Woman. Eventually, Brian finds the Snake Woman
who makes him a more substantial promise with a grislier downside. Meanwhile,
there's ritual killing, blood drinking, human transformation, phony
mediums, hallucinogenic drugs, and much much more - most of which doesn't
actually fit well into the basic story. But, what the hell, you couldn't
ask for more.
Suzzanna
(born Suzanna Martha Frederika van Osch) initially came to Indonesia
from the West Indies. Her exotic looks landed roles in numerous fantasy
and horror films before she became that country's B-Queen. She is best
known for the starring role in QUEEN
OF BLACK MAGIC for which she used the J. P. Suzanna alias. Suzzanna
died on her birthday in October 2008 at age 66.
