Capsule Review: Bhayanakam / Slow-Paced Brilliance / 7 Stars

It is after a long time that I am watching a film that is aptly titled, making me much eager to recommend this to anyone who likes slow-paced arthouse drama. If not for its artistic quality, one should watch it for the realistic portrayal of hardships of a messenger. Bhayanakam (Horror) tells the story of a middle-aged ex-armyman (Renji Panicker) who now works as a postman in Kuttanad, a village in Kerala, India, during the eve of the Second World War. He is loved by his village folk because he brings them letters and money sent by their sons who have joined the Allies in the inevitable war. A cripple himself, he is seen as a god by men and women until the war begins when he starts delivering them the bad news. Jayaraj's scope of storytelling is extensive, heightened by Panicker's singular performance, good photography, and a fitting score. Even though I had issues with the pacing, I would still recommend Bhayanakam as a drama that narrates a hard-hitting story and eloquently brings out another evil facet of war. TN.

The postman mentions the First World War ("Onnam Loka Mahayuddham") in the beginning of the movie (August 1939). However except for a few articles in western newspapers, the general public referred it to as the Great War. Only after WW2 started in September 1939, there was a general need to refer to the first war as WW1. So likely, the postman should have referred to it as the World War / Great War ("Loka Mahayuddham").
