So, 'Female Imp' from 1979 is quite an interesting follow-up to 'Tuyul'. The premise is quirky, with Sol Soleh stumbling upon these tiny statues and bringing Darto, a particularly endearing one, to life. The blend of comedy and fantasy really gives it this lighthearted yet whimsical tone that you'd expect from an era like that. It’s got its charm in the practical effects—those little tuyuls have a certain kitschy appeal, don't you think? The pacing has its lulls but keeps you engaged with the antics that unfold as Darto helps Soleh gain riches. It's not just about the laughs; there's a subtle commentary on greed woven throughout, which adds some depth to the overall experience.
This film has a bit of a curious history among collectors, often regarded as a rare find due to its limited distribution and sometimes elusive home video releases. Copies in decent condition can be hard to track down, especially those featuring the original promotional artwork. Given its connection to 'Tuyul', there's a niche interest that may appeal to fans of Indonesian cinema, making it a fascinating piece for those who appreciate the unique blend of comedy and fantasy from that period.
