Indonesian Cinema Admissions Increase 10% In 2024; Local Films Hit 80M Benchmark For 65% Market Share


Local comedy horror Agak Laen was the top film overall, while Thai blockbuster How To Make Millions Before Grandma Dies was the biggest imported film.

The previous record was set in 2022 when local productions, headed by horror KKN Di Desa Penari, racked up 58.16 million admissions by the end of the year. Agak Laen, produced by Imajinari Pictures, remains the biggest film of 2024 overall, with 9.13M admissions, followed by horror film Vina: Sebelum 7 Hari(5.82M admissions), comedy horror Kang Mak(4.86M), family drama Ipar Adalah Maut(4.78M), KKN prequel Dancing Village: The Curse Begins(4.02M), Joko Anwar horror Grave Torture(4M) and family drama Bila Esok Ibu Tiada(3.72M), the latter a November release starring veteran actress Christine Hakim. Bicara Box Office is predicting that with an improved supply of US studio tentpoles, starting with Captain America: Brave New World, and new instalments in local franchises Satan’s Slaves and 5CM, admissions for 2025 could reach 147 million, which is just a shade under 2019.
