Sinopsis

Suster Victoria (Charlotte Hope) dan seniornya, menyusuri lorong menuju pintu bertuliskan “Tuhan Berakhir Di Sini.” Sang senior membuka pintu, mencoba menjinakkan makhluk yang ada di dalamnya. Sang senior tewas. Makhluk itu lantas berbalik mengincar Victoria. Victoria berlari ke ruangan lain, mengikatkan seutas tali di lehernya, lalu terjun ke luar jendela. 

Beberapa minggu kemudian, jasadnya ditemukan salah satu warga Desa Biertan, Frenchie (Jonas Bloquet). Tragedi ini sampai ke telinga pihak Vatikan. Vatikan sebagai poros Katolik dunia mengutus Pastur Burke (Demian Bichir) dan Suster Irene (Taissa Farmiga) mengusut kasus ini. Keduanya dengan bantuan Frenchie, mendatangi Biara St. Carta yang kini dianggap tempat terkutuk.

Review

Siapa yang tidak tahu film The Nun, film yang tayang tahun 2018 ini telah banyak menjadi perbincangan masyarakat. Film ini merupakan lanjutan dari film The Conjuring 2 yang bercerita tentang hantu yang bernama Valak. Dalam The Conjuring 2 Valak telah meneror sebuah keluarga dan ternyata terror Valak memang sudah ada sejak lama. Karena di film The Nun ini saya mengira bahwa film ini akan menceritakan tentang awal mula Valak ketika masih hidup sampai dia meninggal dan menjadi iblis, tapi ternyata saya salah Valak sudah menjadi iblis dalam film The Nun iblis yang berusaha untuk merasuki manusia dan meneror hidup manusia. 

The Nun film bergenre horror yang selalu memiliki kejutan disetiap adegannya, hantu yang selalu datang dari arah tak terduga, permainan kamera yang membuat jumpscare serta tata cahaya yang remang-remang menambah suasana kelam sepanjang film. The Nun disebut juga sebagai cerita horor supranatural yang menggabungkan narasi fiksi, horror, thriller serta sejarah. Selain valak ada tokoh lain yaitu Daniel yang menurut saya konfliknya kurang jelas kenapa dia selalu menyerang Pastur Burke (Demian Bichir). Film yang seharusnya memberikan jawaban tentang Valak namun terasa kurang mendalam.

College Life: what do you imagine?

When you graduated from senior high school you will enter the level of college education. So, what do you think about college life? Is it more fun than school? Is it more difficult than school? Or is life in the campus same as in films….

College is definitely different from school. At school you are educated for discipline, obeying the rules, and still under the responsibility of the teacher. Meanwhile, at the college you have grown up and must be independent in anything without always being assisted by the teacher. When you are in school you have to go to class on time and go home with a specified time, however college isn’t like that if you come late you will not get nagged. You have more free time at the college.

Let me tell you a little bit about my experience to be a college student. Early in college you will surely found new friends, new schedules, new lessons, new environments, all new (and new clothes maybe hehe..). I am studying at Gunadarma University, in the first semester is a semester that is not too heavy even though one week full, but your burden was only the assignment of lecturers. The second to fifth semester your schedule is not too full in a week, but when sixth semester you will face scientific research task it is similar to thesis or it could be said as practiced before making a thesis. Maybe at other campuses there is no this task but Gunadarma is different from the others. Here is, I think the hardest semester because I’m not only doing assignments from lecturers every week, but also have to be diligent in guidance with scientific research advisor. What is the power of student can only accept all of existing tasks.

When I wrote this blog I was in seventh semester. Thank god my scientific research was finished. In the seventh semester my schedule is only three days, but because at the moment I am working as an Assistant Laboratory there is no holiday for me. Unexpectedly, I will go to the eighth semester and face the thesis may everything can go well. Ok…That’s all for me, whatever choices you take you have to go through it, never regret to doing it.
