Mikael: Hunter of Two Realms (Mikael: Pemburu Dua Alam)

THIS FILM IS A WORK OF FICTION.

THE CHARACTERS, EVENTS, LOCATIONS, AND DIALOGUES

ARE IMAGINARY OR USED FICTITIOUSLY FOR DRAMATIC PURPOSES.

ANY RESEMBLANCE IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL AND UNINTENTIONAL.

IT IS SAID THAT THE HUNTER IS THE PROTECTOR OF THE TWO WORLDS,

THE FINAL FRONTIER BETWEEN HUMANS AND JINNS.

OUR WORLD IS MADE OF TWO REALMS,

THE UNSEEN REALM AND THE PHYSICAL REALM.

IN THE PHYSICAL REALM, HUMANS, ORIGINALLY CREATED FROM CLAY, ARE THE SUCCESSORS.

IN THE UNSEEN REALM, JINNS, CREATED FROM FIRE, REIGN.

IT IS THE NATURE OF JINNS TO BE ENVIOUS, TO DESIRE POWER IN BOTH REALMS.

GREEDY AND ARROGANT BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE FIRE IS NOBLER THAN CLAY.

CONFLICTS BETWEEN THE TWO WARRING REALMS OFTEN ERUPT.

AMONG HUMANS, A GROUP GIFTED WITH THE POWER OF SIGHT EMERGED,

ENTRUSTED TO PROTECT THE PHYSICAL REALM

FROM BEINGS BURNING WITH REVENGE AND EVIL.

IN ANCIENT TIMES, THEY WERE WARRIORS AMONG THE LEARNED.

TODAY, THEIR DESCENDANTS STILL SERVE IN A SPECIAL UNIT WITH NO OFFICIAL RECORDS.

THEY ARE THE ENFORCERS, JUDGES, AND EXECUTIONERS.

THIS SACRED TRUST WILL BE REVOKED

IF THEY ARE FOUND TO HAVE BETRAYED AND KILLED THEIR OWN KIND.

THEY ARE CALLED...

THE HUNTERS

Hey, wait for me!

Arif, hurry up. It's almost Maghrib.

There's a feast later.

The villagers will complain that our class ended late.

Okay, Ustaz. Peace be upon you.

Peace be upon you too.

Arif...

I worship you, the burning desert.

I worship you, the corrupted flesh.

I worship you, the bloodied heart.

I worship you from seven feet under.

Save your servant from the destroying night.

Arif...

You know, right?

Who are you calling

when you recite that incantation?

How do you know my name?

This incantation is to protect me.

No, Arif.

That incantation

is meant to summon...

Summon who?

I want to dedicate a poem to the bride.

One, two, the cats are on the run

Sarah and Amin are now truly one

I've been divorced once before

God willing I'll find a new wife tonight

Hold on a minute.

Hold on!

What if my mom is calling?

Go to hell with your mom!

Damned Hunter!

You're so rude.

My mom isn't even dead yet.

Should I stuff chilies in your mouth?

You humans will never win!

Your Protector will fall.

The dead shall rise.

I will never die.

I am the Grave Jinn!

I will remain eternal!

Remain eternal?

Don't bet your head on it.

- Hello, Chief. - Mikael, where are you?

Sorry, I was sending some things back where they came from.

We have a new case.

Huh?

A new case?

Enough with these insignificant little jinn.

How long are you going to keep holing yourself up in those places?

Hey, I'm serving the country by keeping the mischief down.

You're an elite, Mikael.

We need you back.

This is a major murder case, Mikael.

I wouldn't have called you if this wasn't serious.

People killing people, that's normal, Chief.

I'm busy here.

This isn't a common case, Mikael.

Many have died.

All in the same place.

A schoolboy was playing hockey

when he bashed his friend's head in.

A 20-year-old girl

who had never raised her voice in her life

went berserk

and killed her friend while they were partying.

An elderly woman

threw her pregnant niece

into a well.

All these cases happened over three consecutive days.

It's insane, Mikael, insane!

These are crazy times, Chief.

Crazy weather, climate change,

extreme technology.

People have also become...

crazy.

I want you to go in and scan that place.

Report your findings back to me.

About your sister,

I know you like to work alone.

But I can activate a special task force for you.

Mikael!

TIJAH, MIKAEL'S SISTER

A special task force can't help me, Chief.

Mikael.

Go in,

recon the place,

then come back.

What's the name of the place?

Kuala Gerbang.

NEAR KUALA GERBANG

KUALA GERBANG, PROJECT OF THE FUTURE

KUALA GERBANG, NATURAL HERITAGE SITE, LIVING STONE

Inspector Mikael.

Inspector Mikael.

Inspector Mikael?

I'm Sergeant Kok.

I've heard a lot of stories about you. Hey, turn off that music!

Like I said,

I've heard many stories about you.

All the strange cases,

you solved them.

This.

Inspector Mikael's famous car.

This car must be fast.

I heard you don't allow anyone to touch this car, right?

Inspector, I've just been transferred from the headquarters.

This is my hometown... no.

This is my parents' hometown.

Be careful, sir.

This victim's name is Nam.

Sorry, it's Man. Man Sate.

Age, 23. Male.

Confirmed dead.

Speaking of death, my parents are dead.

They died when I was young.

I was raised in KL instead.

Sometimes, I miss them.

When I look at their faces, I...

Why are you talking so fast?

Nervous?

A little, sir.

Because your reputation...

is huge.

Sir.

Twenty-five corpses.

Twenty-five people were hacked to death outside during a feast.

Sir.

Headquarters needs to send backup.

This is the fourth case like this in a row, sir.

This one is the most horrific, sir.

What's the story with Arif?

Just the usual stuff, sir.

An orphan.

Quiet.

Weird.

Always bullied. Didn't like to talk to anyone.

Even when he talked, it was to himself.

I've already interrogated him.

It's confirmed.

He was quiet.

Weird.

An orphan.

I'm an orphan too.

But I'm not weird.

Or perhaps, sir,

he just snapped?

But 25 corpses, sir.

That's extreme, isn't it?

Sir, this is definitely a strange case.

What is that, sir?

An ancient incantation.

This ancient incantation is used to summon a demon.

Take me to the coroner.

It might explain the pattern the bodies are arranged in.

A pattern?

KUALA GERBANG SQUARE

Calm down.

- Everyone, stay calm. - Calm down.

Calm down, everyone.

The police from KL have arrived.

Tok, we need to call a shaman.

The police definitely can't handle matters like these.

Am I right, everyone?

Yes!

Besides, it's not like the police will admit our town is cursed.

Wong, don't talk nonsense, all right?

But it really is cursed, Tok.

The weather has turned so hot.

The crops have withered and died.

Our water has turned black and muddy.

Our people, our relatives, were all hacked to death, Tok!

- That's right! - People have died!

Mak Su.

Be patient. These trials are only temporary.

But our town is getting worse.

We need to do something, Tok!
