A Deadly Pursuit of Youth Triggers Zombie Outbreak in Indonesia: Netflix Unveils Trailer for 'The Elixir'
When the search for eternal youth triggers a terrifying zombie outbreak, what is the true cost - and how can it be stopped? Netflix has unveiled the trailer for its upcoming Indonesian film The Elixir, directed by the acclaimed Kimo Stamboel and premiering October 23. Offering a glimpse into the sinister chain of events that sealed the dreadful fate of unsuspecting people, the trailer sets the stage for a chilling tale of horror and survival.
Set in a remote village near Yogyakarta, the movie opens with a patriarch's ambition to maintain power, leading to family disputes and catastrophe. Kenes (Mikha Tambayong) and her family visit her father, Sadimin (Donny Damara), the owner of a renowned herbal medicine business, to discuss the future of the family business. Tensions escalate when Kenes confronts her best friend, Karina (Eva Celia), about her intention to marry Sadimin. But the quarreling abruptly turns into fear when Sadimin, having just drunk his new potion of eternal youth, suddenly loses consciousness and transforms into a terrifying creature - a zombie.
Panic erupts as the undead pounce on humans, while the uninfected try desperately to escape. All disputes, egos and emotions must be set aside for one goal: helping each other and fighting for survival. The Elixir immerses audiences in a world of raw terror and unrelenting suspense, promising to be one of the year's most anticipated thrillers. It weaves in Indonesian cultural elements, from the herbal medicine jamu to zombies with local characteristics, all set against the backdrop of familiar family dynamics. The film is written by the director alongside Agasyah Karim and Khalid Kashogi, with Edwin Nazir serving as producer.
