646f9e108c Indonesia is a country in turmoil. The people are poor and oppressed by the Dutch Government. However one hope remains in the form of rebel leader Djaka Semboeng.

Semboeng again faces Kieten and is overcome by his magic - finally being turned into a pig before escaping the prison! A kindly magician returns Semboeng to his human form and teaches him new skills that he will needhe prepares to face Kieten for the final time. This Indonesian film belongs to the strangest obscure oddities of film history. It offers a wild mix of Action, Fantasy, Horror and Epic, with the title character Jaka Sembung, maybe the most vulnerable super hero ever put on celluloid.<br/><br/>Although the production values are laughable compared with almost any American production, the film delivers good entertainment and never becomes boring. The action scenes are trashy, the sometimes astonishingly gory special effects are cheap but effective, and the dramatic story boosts plenty of unintentional humor to make this pic a thoroughly funny experience that certainly bares cult potential. The Warrior, Jaka Sembung, played by Barry Prima, is an Indonesian Robin hood with magical powers who fights evil Dutch Imperialists. This is one little strange movie filled with martial arts, mysticism, blood &amp; gore, and a strong anti-imperialist message. It is also quite funny, and the dubbing is of course priceless. The final battle between the evil Ki Item and the warrior has to be the most weird piece of bloodshed in movie history, and who can forget the sequence where Jaka Sembung gets a new pair of eyes. Essential viewing for fans of Asian weirdness. the U. K. version seems to have some minor cuts, but is still worth watching.<br/><br/>Recommended.
I have watched many movies but this movie seems to be very interesting and wonderful one. It contains lots of action and fight scenes that makes the audience so interesting. I really love this movie from the start to the end recommended reading
