Wogma rating: Catch on TV/online for sure
Quick review: A meaty story and a gory film which deviates from the typical possessed body horror storyline. Chills the spine as a horror film about supernatural phenomenon should even though I am not convinced horror films should be made at all.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: A different but thin story-line that stretches too long, most of which you know from the trailer, including the 2-3 funny lines. ‘Different’ gets some points though.
Wogma rating: The keen must watch on screen; else TV/online
Quick review: An absolutely absorbing first half written, performed and executed so well that the slightly convoluted and stretched second half cannot mar the experience.
Wogma rating: Catch on TV/online for sure
Quick review: Almost every frame of the film tells you it is not about these two sisters, but there is a larger purpose here. Once you give in to this theme and adjust your hearing to its loudness, the film is engrossing while it lasts.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Finesse comes through in language, costumes, and even performances. Not so much in the story writing or telling.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Considering it is an almost 3 hour film, it doesn’t bore. That the two halves are two films might have something to do with it.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: A dispassionate narration might seem like an unbiased view but comes across as dry. It’s still a decent watch to get a glimpse of the man’s life.

This piece is fanboy material by design - it is for the most part about the influence of his - the Joharian school of cinema - on me, as someone who grew up in the late nineties as also on our popular mainstream culture - something that our man isn't credited for often and not nearly enough with.
No fanfare, no bells and whistles. Just plain happy to be 10.
