Get ready horror film fans – mm2 has announced the release of local horror film, IBU, slated to haunt the big screens islandwide this Halloween!

IBU is directed by Raihan Halim – best known for writing and directing Singapore's Oscar entry for Best International Feature Film, La Luna – and stars Alicia Amin, Nur Sabrina Nasir, and Mariana Yati.



When twenty-eight year old Huda Juraimi lost her husband in a car accident, she is left to take care of her teenage step-daughter, Arissa, who has nothing but disdain for her. The harder Huda tries to be close to the girl, the further Arissa pushes her away.

Everything changes one day when a Pontianak attaches itself to Arissa. And in order to keep Arissa forever, it first has to destroy any bond or love that Huda has for the child.

Huda will be forced to fight for the child and prove once and for all that she has what it takes to not only be Arissa’s mother but guardian and selfless protector.


IBU opens in cinemas 31 October.
