If you think that all horror films these days are stretched glamorized versions of Manichithrathazhu/Apthamitra or The Conjuring, look no further than this film, Yashogathe, to change your mind, probably. For a glimpse at the movie, check out the theatrical trailer here Trailer
Periodical – Paranormal film! What an unexpected combination that is. It is claimed to be a realistic horror film and it is evident from the trailer also. From trailer, it looks like an unsettling film that slowly builds up the horror. It also just looks extraordinarily well made, with gorgeous set design and sfx. With the unusual atmosphere Yashogathe has potential to be a great time. Yashogathe hits on April 22, 2016. There are enough engaging interesting pieces in place that this is a film I’m keen to check out.
