A reporter, Saleh, finds himself stuck in a kampong after his tyre of his MG was punctured by a strange keris, (with the bones of a hand attached). Within his short stay in the pekan kecil, he finds out that when there is a full moon, a man will disappear from the village.. He meets the beautiful and mysterious Cik Putih, sister to the mechanic Jongkidin, and is immediately smitten. At the same time, rumours abound (quietly) in the village of a pontianak who was killing their men for their blood. This is told to him inadvertently by Mahinder Singh, who quickly disappears after spilling the beans. Cik Rogayah and her parents, worried that she will never find a husband at the rate men were disappearing in the village, set their eyes on Saleh. Rogayah wants him to save her from her lounge singing life (actually her parents want her to be saved, she quite enjoys singing in the Jubilee Park), but Saleh is not so interested as Cik Putih’s beauty and strength has his heart captured.
