Ghost stories are passe.
With many horror and horror comedy films being churned out in Tamil cinema, the fear factor is on the wane.
How about a zombie film? Something on the lines of Evil Dead and Night of the Living Dead?
Shakti Soundar Rajan returns with his third movie, a zombie film, the first of its kind in Tamil cinema.
Titled, Miruthan (Zombie), this story written by Shakti Rajan (as he is commonly known), features Jayam Ravi and Malayalam actress Lakshmi Menon in the lead.
Ravi plays a traffic cop and Lakshmi Menon plays a doctor.
The film was shot in Coimbatore and Chennai. Supported by CGS effects, Miruthan hopes to make viewers jump out of their seats.
Miruthan is produced by S. Michael Rayappan. D. Imman has composed music.
