Since leaving her career in advertising, the Labuan native has forged a long and exciting path for herself in the acting world, appearing in numerous plays, movies and TV dramas.
His life took a plunge when his daughter Ayu was brutally murdered. While the rest of the village blames the wild crocodiles of the swamps, Ramlee believes otherwise.
How would you describe the movie in three words?
What was it like to return to the world of horror after Harun Malam in 2022?
But it is a challenge to face my fears in a way. For Kulit Wayang, I would say a big part of me being in this film is because of director Dain Said.
And I am happy to say my journey from Harun Malam to Kulit Wayang was a fruitful one. I have gained a lot more enjoyment doing this one with him. It was very enjoyable.
When I read the character description of Mak Ta, it sounded as if she was a makcik bawang (nosy old lady). But when I read the script, I realised I could not be further away from that.
She is a Chinese woman who lives in Kelantan. She, like many other Chinese people in Kelantan, has assimilated into the local culture.
How did you get into the shoes of Mak Ta?
The voice helped me carry through that a lot, which made it easier for the other physicalities to come in.
When you are filming a supernatural film, it makes sense for most of the filming to take place at night. For us to be in quite a rural area, the mystical aspect will come through on set.
Your mind plays tricks on you. In my case, a lot of my scenes were shot at an old-school wooden house. So, there is a lot of creaking. It sets the mood in front of the camera and behind it.
I am agnostic. So if the supernatural is true, it is true. If it is not, I am okay. But I am open to it being true but I am also open to it just being nothing.
No, I did not and I did not know how spiritual it actually was. That was a real eye-opener and it definitely added a layer, which made me more interested in it. If I ever had the chance, I probably would play with it. But I do not think I have the talent for it.
I would use the word shocking instead. There are elements that will shock people. Even though it is something we do not experience, it is something we can definitely relate to.
If you are interested in finding out more about traditional arts and how Malaysians view the mystique, come and watch this film.
