Urip ki mung mampir ngombe. Bondo, donya mung titipan. Bechik eling bondo donya mung titipan, gawe urip urip bareng bebrayan marang liyan.Contoh baik mengenai dari kutipan di atas mungkin bisa dilihat dalam setan kuburan, 1975, yang dibintangi Benyamin S (Salim), Yati Octavia (Lilis), Mansjur Sjah. Film ini bercerita mengenai keluarga Freeling yang menjadi korban kejadian supranatural di rumah mereka di Cuesta Verde yang ternyata terletak di atas kuburan. Yang bikin seram, film ini dikabarkan terinspirasi dari kisah nyata keluarga Hermanns yang mengalami pengalaman mirip di rumah mereka di New York di tahun 1958.
In about half a decade since May 1998, changes have taken place in the content, production, distribution, exhibition, and discourse of Indonesian cinema. During Reformasi (1999–2001), the rules and regulations of cinema authorized under the New Order government of President Suharto began to be contested and re‐negotiated. The rise of new film genres and changes in concepts about existing genres and formats took place, new discourses emerged, and different communities and institutions arose that identified themselves with certain film genres or which used the medium of film for particular means, such as a medium for advocacy of human rights issues. Five to six years after 1998, it is apparent that besides changes, there are also many continuities: many old film institutions and structures for film production, distribution, and exhibition are still in place, and topics of discourses often recall past discourses of the New Order period or those held in the newly independent 1950s. This paper considers some of the changes in the understanding of genres and formulas within horror films, and discusses modes of representation and constraints in choices of subject matter in narrative practices in contemporary Indonesian cinema.
