The premise

A forbidden exorcism is livestreamed in Indonesia, awakening the legendary female spirit Kuntilanak. What begins as an online spectacle quickly turns deadly. In Taiwan, Mila watches the ritual—and becomes the curse’s first victim. Soon, mysterious deaths and violent possessions follow. When Yulan collapses and is found to have lost part of her soul, it becomes clear that this is not an isolated incident, but a transnational curse. Seeking answers, Mila’s son returns her ashes to Indonesia, hoping to uncover the truth behind her death. Instead, he steps into a nightmare rooted in ancient folklore and unresolved hatred. As supernatural violence escalates, the group realizes that once Kuntilanak is summoned, the curse will not stop—until it claims everything in its path.

Horror Vault's take

When a forbidden exorcism is livestreamed from Indonesia, something ancient and wrathful is unleashed — and the carnage doesn't stop at borders. A Taiwanese woman watching the ritual becomes an early casualty, pulling her grieving son into a journey back to Indonesia where local legend and lingering malice collide. The legendary female spirit Kuntilanak proves far more dangerous than any online audience bargained for, turning a viral moment into a mounting body count across two countries. Rooted in Southeast Asian folklore, this fourth entry in the Rope Curse franchise escalates the mythology into full transnational nightmare territory.
