Film Review- Yamirruka Bhayamey....(YIB)

I am venturing out on a review in verses
review of a regional movie
review of a Tamil movie
on ghosts and the supernatural
Yamirruka bhayamey..."when I am here
there's nothing but fear!"

We have heard of the famous
 horror films, filled with suspense
thrill and fear...
Hitchcock & Dracula films, omen, exorcist..
Indian ones of Ramsay brothers
classics like Madhumathi & Bhargavi nilayam..

Of late however,ennui has set in
"So what's new?"is the question
in the  viewers'mind  with
neither the visuals or the strange sounds
failing to impact them

instead of fear, it is a chuckle
that escapes the viewers..
any suspense lost amidst
cat calls from the audience
horror movies in fact  have
turned out to be comedies!

But YIB surprises
it starts of as a comedy
nobody is taken seriously
no famous actor playing
the hero,heroine or support cast

moving from beginning in smooth
 everyday comic situations
there's of course oomph & some glamour
through the two girls who give company
to hero & friends in a long abandoned villa..

suddenly we are shook up
from slumber by unexpected
twists and turns
from light hearted to suspense
from comedy to fear...
and not viceversa!

YIB impressed...
I must confess
and I will now look out
for work of the director, Deekay
4 out of 5 is a just and fair rating
for this novel ghost movie
that could be a trend setter!

East or West RML is the Best!



           I say 'hello' on the phone -if 
           do not get the return hello
            most of the times
           how then will I know
           that I have been heard ?

            even if being heard
           wouldn't any one stop talking?
           if no return hello is forthcoming
           for a long time.. It's the same with creativity......

           In RML  the hellos from many
           gets your juices surging
           if  from no other, rest assured
           the fairy, the guardian angel will respond-
           to you, me,  everyone!

           In a century, when no time for hello
           even from spouses, siblings,
           children or parents
           RML beckons like, an oasis
           a haven in a hapless world
           which is why for many, it's home sweet home
           a home away from home.

         Yes, for sharing thoughts, for a pat & a chat
         east or west
         RML is the best!
