The Elixir (Indonesian: Abadi Nan Jaya; lit. 'Everlasting and Glorious') is a 2025 Indonesian zombie film directed, produced, and co-written by Kimo Stamboel.^[1][2] The film stars Mikha Tambayong, Eva Celia, Donny Damara, and Marthino Lio. It was released by Netflix on 23 October 2025.

Kenes, her husband Rudi, and their son Raihan visit Kenes' estranged father, Sadimin, and brother, Bambang in the village of Wanirejo to discuss the sale of Wani Waras, their family's jamu business. Kenes resents Sadimin for marrying her best friend, Karina. Sadimin drinks a prototype jamu and drastically becomes younger, to his family's disbelief. He then announces that he would no longer sell Wani Waras and will instead expand Wani Waras by selling the jamu, titled Abadi Nan Jaya. The family descends into an argument before Sadimin suffers a seizure and collapses. As his family panics, Sadimin reanimates and attacks two servants, Aris and Pardi. Sadimin then attacks Bambang, who impales him with a crossbow bolt. Rudi asks Aris to seek help in Wanirejo, but Aris reanimates while driving and crashes his car into a celebration at the village chief's house before emerging and attacking the attendees, causing an outbreak.

At Sadimin's residence, Pardi reanimates and infects other household staff. Kenes and Bambang drive away in Kenes' car and become separated from Rudi, Raihan, Karina and a maid, Mbok Sum. Rudi's group runs to the village chief's house seeking shelter, only to find it overrun by zombies who attack Mbok. Rudi, Raihan and Karina barricade themselves inside the house. Rudi calls Kenes and Bambang and tells them their location, but Kenes inadvertently attracts the zombies by honking her car, forcing her and Bambang to flee to a police station and crashing their car along the way. Rudi's group flees to a nearby house, but are accosted by a reanimated Mbok. Rudi kills Mbok using a meat cleaver but is bitten. Rudi says farewell to Raihan and Karina before reanimating and attacking them. He is impaled in the stomach by a metal pump lever and locked in a room by the houseowner, Ningsih.

Kenes and Bambang reach the station and warn the officers. The station commander orders his men to inspect, but are devoured by the zombies. The infected commander reaches the station and orders a subordinate, Rahman, to barricade the premises before reanimating. Bambang locks him inside a prison cell while the station is surrounded by the undead. Ningsih calls her boyfriend Rahman and tells them that she is trapped along with Raihan and Karina. Karina tells Kenes of Rudi's infection as they reconcile. Rahman's group resolve to rescue Ningsih's and equip themselves using the station's armory. Rahman calls other police units for backup, only to find them devoured by the undead. Rahman and Bambang realize that the zombies are attracted to sound after the horde attacks a mosque upon hearing an adhan. At nightfall, Kenes, Rahman and Bambang launch firecrackers confiscated at the station to divert the zombies, but are bogged down by straggling zombies until a rainstorm renders them immobile. Kenes advances down the road and hides inside a truck, but Rahman and Bambang fall behind and return to the station.

With the rainstorm as cover, Ningsih's group uses her motorcycle to flee to the station and finds Kenes in the truck surrounded by zombies. Kenes fires a flare to lead the undead towards a ricefield as Ningsih's group reaches the truck. Karina then inadvertently rams the truck into the station, pinning Bambang and allowing the undead to enter. Ningsih goes to the prison cell and is bitten by the commander, who is then shot by Rahman who is in turn bitten by approaching zombies. As the couple are devoured, Rahman proposes to Ningsih, who accepts. After shooting the reanimated Rudi, Raihan, Karina and Kenes try to pull out Bambang from the wreckage, but Bambang orders them to leave before throwing a firecracker to ignite leaking gasoline from the truck, detonating the remaining firecrackers and destroying the station and most of the zombies. Kenes reveals that she had been bitten and stays behind while entrusting Raihan to Karina. Kenes fires flares to lure away the zombies before shooting herself in the head. Karina and Raihan escape on motorcycle as the zombies follow on a trail of destruction.

In a mid-credits scene, Sadimin's business partners in Jakarta—Santoso and Grace—unsuccessfully try to contact Sadimin and his family. Grace ingests a vial of Abadi Nan Jaya and finds herself becoming younger before showing it to Santoso.
