Keisya Levronka & Ummy Quary Reveal the Atmosphere of the Factory that Became the Filming Location for 'PAMALI: TUMBAL'

Kapanlagi.com - Keisya Levronka & Ummy Quary star in a new horror film titled TUMBAL: PAMALI. In a recent segment on KapanLagi Show, the two young actresses revealed several facts and stories that sent chills down their spines while filming the movie, which is scheduled to be released on August 7, 2025.

"We shot in Bandung for a month. The scariest setting seems to be the factory," said Keisya Levronka. "For me, it's the factory and the house," replied Ummy Quary when asked about the filming location.

Then, Keisya detailed the factory that Ummy Quary mentioned. Keisya stated that the factory was an abandoned pharmaceutical manufacturing site. As a result, the air inside the factory felt stuffy.

"Because we are indeed in the story's background, we are adventuring into a factory. An abandoned factory, you know. And coincidentally, the set is also a real abandoned factory. So it felt really stuffy and smelled like medicine. So we could barely breathe. As soon as we cut, we would immediately go outside to breathe. Because it was really stuffy," continued Keisya.

Keisya's statement was immediately confirmed by Ummy Quary. "So the set wasn't artificially made. But it really was a set that already existed from the factory," she added.

1. Enjoy the Shooting Process

Despite the shooting location having a creepy impression, Keisya Levronka actually enjoyed the pleasant shooting atmosphere, even though it was from night until morning.

"Yes, it was really fun, Kak. I mean, despite the horror genre of the film. And we shot in the morning and at night. But throughout the shooting process, it was very enjoyable. Just joking around, right? Yes, it was very fun," said Keisya Levronka.

Even so, there was a scene that they found very difficult. However, Ummy Quary did not want to specifically explain what that scene was.

"But if there’s a scene that is very serious, there’s one scene that I, Keisya, and Kak Fajar found very difficult, (that scene) is basically," said Ummy. "(The scene) that requires a lot of emotion," replied Keisya.
