Ghost in the Cell, directed by Joko Anwar, will be released digitally on October 27, with a 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray combo edition arriving November 17, according to reports from both Bloody Disgusting and Dread Central[1][2]. The film, which recently screened in theaters, is distributed by Well Go USA Entertainment[1].
The story centers on a high-security prison dominated by feuding gangs and a harsh warden. The arrival of a new inmate triggers a series of gruesome murders, forcing inmates to overcome their rivalries to face an invisible, supernatural threat[1][2]. The cast includes Abimana Aryasatya, Almanzo Konoralma, Aming Sugandhi, Arswendy Bening Swara, Bront Palarae, and Dimas Danang Suryonegoro[1].
The home video release will feature a behind-the-scenes special called 'Behind the Cell,' focusing on the making of the film[1][2]. According to Dread Central, director Anwar describes the ghost as both a literal and symbolic presence, hinting at real-world issues, including Indonesia’s deforestation[2].
