” Credit By Vicki Dameron Richard Beard 2017 I was as surprised as anyone when I heard that the North Carolina Legislature, in the late 1980s, had mandated that citizens within our state should, and would, receive a National Public Radio signal generated within the state boundaries. I had been listening to NPR, and especially Morning Edition, for decades on the WEPR affiliate of the South Carolina ETV network.

Directed by Alan Ilanthirayan Arumugam Screenplay by Alan Ilanthiryan Arumugam, Charles Benedict, and Mukund Ramanan Distributed by Film Regions International Not Rated https://www.aiyaifeaturefilm.com/ Aiyai: Wrathful Soul, directed and co-written by Alan Ilanthirayan Arumugam (Charles Benedict and Mukund Ramanan also participated in writing the screenplay), is a fascinating supernatural horror thriller that succeeds on just about every level. While the general story at play isn’t necessarily something horror movie audiences haven’t seen before (the movie has some quirks that are its own but “vengeful spirit” stories have been rampant since the inception of cinema), Aiyai: Wrathful Soul will still freak you out and get under your skin a bit, which is what all good “vengeful spirit” movies do. ....
