Matula
Matula
1941, Indonesian. Directed by Tan Tjoei Hock.
Johan Bessey is a tycoon with two daughters, Emma and Diana. Matula (the ugly face), wants to court Emma, so he makes a pact with the shaman to make him look good in return for his soul. He almost loses his soul but Johan Bessey’s magic bamboo spear prevents this. Matula returns to his original ugly look, and his body emanates a rancid odour.
