When people talk about horror movies, they often think, “Horror is all about jump scares and gore.” Many believe that fear in movies comes from loud sounds, sudden jumps, and lots of blood. But real horror goes much deeper. True horror reaches our most basic fears, creating feelings that stay with us.

This is why Suzanna, Indonesia’s queen of horror, is so unique. Her films, especially the classic Sundel Bolong, are great examples of horror that doesn’t rely on cheap tricks. Instead, her movies use a slow, creeping fear that makes audiences feel unsettled long after the movie ends. Suzanna’s haunting performances and atmosphere show that fear can be powerful without being loud or flashy.

People Misunderstand Fear in Horror

Modern horror movies are often criticized for focusing too much on jump scares and ignoring deeper, psychological fear. The big misconception is that horror must be obvious to be scary. But Suzanna’s films show this isn’t true. In her movies, fear isn’t about blood or sudden shocks. Instead, it’s about her intense gaze, her ghostly presence, and her ability to make viewers feel truly uneasy.

Fear is Like an Iceberg Imagine fear in a horror movie like an iceberg. The part we can see, the tip, is like the jump scares and the obvious shocks—it’s right there, easy to notice. But the real terror is hidden below the surface, deep and vast. Suzanna’s films embrace this idea, leading us into that hidden part of the iceberg. Her horror is more about what we can’t see and what’s left to our imagination, tapping into a psychological fear rather than just making us jump.

Suzanna’s Way of Creating Fear

In Sundel Bolong, Suzanna plays a ghost with a hole in her back. Her character is filled with sadness, revenge, and despair, which makes the story feel powerful on an emotional level. The fear in this film doesn’t just come from her appearance but from her quiet rage and sadness. Watching her is like watching a lost soul who can’t escape her pain. This kind of tragic horror is what makes the film so chilling and unforgettable.

Suzanna’s movies remind us that real horror doesn’t need loud noises or jump scares. Instead, it needs storytelling that stays with you. Her legacy shows that fear doesn’t have to shout; sometimes, it can be a quiet whisper that lingers in your mind. Suzanna proves that the coolest horror movies are the ones that make you think and feel, not just the ones that make you jump.
