All these years Indian audiences were craving from the makers of the
horror genre to try out something different. It seems someone has
finally heard our long pending demand in the form of Mysskin who has come out with a varied form of horror. His latest work Pissasu
is a horror flick without too many of those blood and gore we have seen
quite often from ghost movies. Backed by a beautiful screenplay minus
all the cliched horror dramas, Pissasu stands tall among the genre with a
different approach to storytelling and at the same time a notable
making style with the trademark of Mysskin.
A little bit of spoiler alert is here so people yet to watch the film, I request you to please skip this paragraph of the review. Our hero here is Sidharth who is a violinist and a young man with a kind and good heart. He happens to witness a road accident of a beautiful girl whom he takes to hospital but the girl dies upon reaching the hospital holding Sidharth's hand. But what that follow him to his home is the ghost of the girl Bhavani. Siddharth's attempt to find out the cause of the ghost following him is what rest of the movie is all about.
Mysskin magic we have seen in movies like Onayum aatukuttiyum, Yudham Sei, Nandalala, Chithiram Pesuthadi etc are seen here in Pisasu also. The script is the backbone of any film and situation is here is no different. Screenplay, the making, the direction all holds together the movie which is just one hundred and thirteen minutes in duration. Along with excellent background score and camera angles, Mysskin puts his latest flick also into the big league. The attempt and approach is different and it has yielded results in a positive way.
Naga portrayed the character of Sidharth and eventhough he is a newcomer, he showed no signs of nervousness. Prayaga Martin is Bhavani and though her face will haunt us till the very end of the movie, the character as such have very little screen presence that later appear as the animated ghost character. Not much familiar actors among the supporting casts except Radha Ravi who appear as Bhavani's father and all of them were equally upto the task in terms of emoting.
The technical side also has its lions share in making the film a standard one. And here cinematography and background score are the two impressive areas that scored the most.
So overall its a Mysskin magic once again and his attempt in presenting a ghost story without any cliches and so called gimmicks of our desi horror movies definitely deserves to be appreciated. I go with three and a half out of five for Pissasu and recommend the film to people who likes experimental themes and experimentation
Rating - 3.5 / 5
