| This is the film that introduced
a new kind of monster to the world’s cinema screens. A sensation
on its initial release in Asia, Mystics in Bali was deemed too bizarre
and shocking to be screened in the west. Until now... This is the
first time the film has been released in the US and is completely
uncut and digitally remastered from the rare original negative.
The film tells the
story of a young American woman who goes to Asia in search of the
secrets of ancient magic. One night in the forest, she encounters
a female member of the terrifying cult of Leyak. She agrees to become
the Leyak’s disciple and begins to indulge in many strange
and savage rites. But the Leyak witch has secret plans for her young
acolyte. Plans that culminate in one of the most bizarre and shocking
scenes in all horror cinema.
The holy grail of
Asian cult cinema!
