T&Cs apply.KUALA LUMPUR, April 1 — The push for ideas beyond the comfort zone in Malaysian film production continues to gain momentum with, the latest local feature directed by Zahir Omar and brought to life through the combined efforts of writer and producer June Tan. In an industry often guided by familiar genres and proven formulas, a growing number of filmmakers are stepping forward with bold, unconventional concepts that challenge audience expectations. The story follows Mikael, played by Datuk Remy Ishak, an elite police officer haunted by past trauma, who fights jinns. When a powerful jinn prince, Torsim , emerges with plans to dominate the world by overthrowing seven mystical protectors, Mikael is thrust into a race against time to uncover an ancient artifact capable of stopping him. An unexpected band of allies rallies: Winston , a dealer of black-magic concoctions, Sergeant Kok , an earnest but awkward young policeman and Aisyah , a resourceful thief skilled in tracking rare artefacts through the black market.is being touted as the first local film to merge action, comedy, and horror into a single cinematic experience. Zahir said he got the idea for Mikael from a line he had encountered regarding Angel Jibreel, who is said to have stopped smiling after hell was created.“These films were typically B-grade. The story doesn’t make much sense, but it’s entertaining,” he shared with the press during the gala screening ofZahir believes the timing is right to bring such a story to Malaysian audiences, as expectations for quality have risen. “I think the demand for good quality local films now and the expectation of the Malaysian audience, you cannot make a mediocre film. “You have to make an interesting film that looks good, and I really wanted to deliver that to the audience.” The film stands out for its approach to the supernatural, favouring physical combat between humans and jinns rather than traditional rituals or exorcisms.Remy’s performance as Mikael channels the charisma and rebellious edge of classic action heroes from the 1980s and 1990s. “This story cannot be carried by one person alone. Alhamdulillah, the whole team worked together so well, from all the actors, the technical crew, and the stunt team, everyone was superb.“We all poured our hearts and souls into it, and I hope this comes through as something that everyone loves.”Outrage in South Korea as suspects in indie director Kim Chang-min’s assault still free five months after his death, family condemns handling of case
