The horror FILM Santet Segoro Pitu is a story based on a true story in a viral thread on X (formerly Twitter). Segoro Pitu witchcraft itself is black magic which aims to harm someone. In contrast to other black magic, Segoro Pitu black magic is considered the strongest and most effective because it can bring in supernatural beings from outside the island to harm the victim.

The film Santet Segoro Pitu was directed by Tommy Dewo. This film is Tommy’s second work in the horror genre, which was broadcast first. The preparations and props for this film, which is set in 1983, are no joke. Everything is set as neatly as possible so that the audience gets a good experience.

One thing that is unique is the use of real monkey skulls in the shooting props. Black magic is known as gussets or messages that are placed close to the recipient of the black magic so that it can hurt or damage the victim’s business. In this segoro pitu black magic there are several conditions for carrying it out, including gussets containing various forms.

“If it’s black magic, they say, we’re given something. For example, so that the shop doesn’t sell out, we’re given burial ground so that the food goes stale quickly. Usually there’s a gusset, that’s what it’s called. And in the visual film it’s actually the black package, the one “Inside it is a monkey skull, there are tiger nails, what’s there, something else, what kind of oil is that,” said Tommy when interviewed by the Indonesian media team.

“It’s a real monkey skull, don’t worry, it’s not a baby skull, hahahah,” he added.

The props used are made as well as possible to emphasize the impression of horror and a real viewing experience. This film will start showing on October 17 2024 in Indonesian cinemas. (NA) (Z-12)

**Tommy Dewo:** Thank you for having me! “Santet Segoro Pitu” is inspired‌ by a true story that went viral on⁢ social media. The idea of witchcraft, especially Segoro Pitu, has fascinated me ‌for ‌a long⁤ time. It’s not just​ about horror; it delves into cultural beliefs and superstitions that are very much alive in our society. I wanted to bring​ that story ‍to⁣ life on screen.

**Interviewer:** The film is ⁣set in 1983 Semarang. Why did you choose this setting for your story?

**Tommy Dewo:** Setting the film in the past allows us to explore the roots of these beliefs and ‍practices when ⁣they were more prevalent. The 1980s were⁤ a time⁣ when superstition held significant weight in many communities. ‍It also adds ‌a layer of nostalgia and allows ​for a⁢ unique visual style, contrasting modern and traditional elements.

**Interviewer:** ​There’s been quite ⁤a buzz around the authenticity of your production. Can you⁤ elaborate ​on the reported use of‌ real ​animal skulls?

**Tommy Dewo:** Yes, we ⁢used real​ monkey skulls in some scenes​ to create an authentic atmosphere.‌ I ⁢know it might be shocking, but it was ‌important for us to depict ⁤the ritualistic aspects of the Segoro Pitu ‌accurately. We wanted the ⁤audience to feel the⁤ real weight and gravity of black magic, especially since⁣ this particular form is considered one of the strongest.

**Interviewer:** That’s certainly a bold choice! ‍How do you think the audience will respond to ⁤these elements?

**Tommy Dewo:** Horror films often rely on shock value, but I believe there’s more to fear than just jumpscares.⁣ My hope is that ⁢the audience will walk away feeling disturbed not just by what they ​see, but by the implications of the witchcraft ⁢and the⁤ impact it has on the characters. It’s about‌ exploring the darker side of‌ human nature and belief.

**Interviewer:** It sounds​ like a compelling film. What message do you⁤ hope viewers take away from​ “Santet Segoro Pitu”?

**Tommy Dewo:** Above all, I want viewers to reflect on fear and belief. The film ⁣raises questions about how far we are willing to go‍ when‌ confronted with fear. ⁣It’s ‍also a reminder of the cultural significance behind these stories and practices. ‍I want it to provoke thought, discussion,​ and ⁤a deeper understanding of the supernatural elements in our lives.

**Interviewer:** Thank you for those insights, Tommy. We’re looking forward to ⁤seeing “Santet Segoro Pitu” when⁣ it releases!

**Tommy Dewo:** Thank ​you! I hope everyone enjoys the‌ film and experiences the journey we crafted.
