Bloody Beggar - 7.5/10. This film is a victim of bad release time. Had this movie come out on its own, it might’ve worked way better for the audiences! The thing is is that in comparison to Amaran, this movie pales in quality. But, even with its flaws, this movie goes about it self with a conviction to be a dedicated dark comedy thriller. Some films don’t need to have a wide spread acclaim or reach. Sometimes, movies could satisfy just a segment of the audience, and that is totally fine! The comedy aspect of this movie sadly doesn’t work, as the jokes are pretty mediocre. The situation gets darkly hilarious though, especially the last half hour or so. It has a zany tone to it, with wide eyed looks to the camera, trademark Nelson mannerisms, and dead pan atmosphere. And I can appreciate the movie’s strong sense of being true to its dark nature, unrelenting with some of its tone in that said last half hour. Its a film that touches upon some interesting things, including karma, greed, the “eat the rich” plot path, and fate. And the way it goes about these subjects is interestingly showcased by the director too. Its obvious he is directly inspired by Nelson, and if copying is a grade, then his copying of Nelson’s technique here is an A grade. I appreciate Kavin’s dedication to trying new things in his career with each and every film. A role like this is one that some upcoming actors wouldn’t want to do, so I gotta say kudos to him for doing a role like this! Its not an award winning worthy role, but one that shows the actor that the man is trying to be. Though there’s flashes of Ready Or Not in this movie, I wouldn’t say its a straightforward remake or adaptation of that film. Overall, this an entertaining film with flaws, but one that feels a little more original and true to its genre!

Kavin winning with his interesting script choices is lovely to see. This is a film that the OTT audiences will most likely lap up, given its minimalist premise utilized to decent effect. I won't say all the moving parts work, but how writer-director Sivabalan Muthukumar executes the dark+absurd humor elements warrants praise. Jen Martin's score is also wonderful, adding to the emotional side of the film (in an unexpected turn of events).The survival thriller bits are fun, but the commentary on poverty, social strata, and abuse within the family, is explored to a deeper extent than expected. Redin Kingsley, whom I absolutely wanted to "DELETE" in Kanguva, frequently scores with his one-liners here. I suppose it's a matter of the filmmaker he finds himself working with. The other supporting performances are a mixed bag-some enjoyable, some not so much. "You're Next" and "Ready or Not" are obvious inspirations.
