Dara-Kula

1973

A grim, slow-burning horror that lingers on betrayal and supernatural revenge, unsettling more than shocking.

Overview: Samad and his pregnant wife Dara work hard to save enough for the arrival of their first child. Unbeknownst to the couple, their friend Osman secretly lusts after Dara, burgles their home and steals their savings. Osman spends the money on gambling and drinks leaving his pregnant wife Kula in the lurch. Tragedy befalls the two women as Osman makes his advances towards Dara. Dara is raped by Osman in her home when her husband Samad is away. The sexual assault is witnessed by Kula, Osman’s wife, impelling Osman to commit a double murder of the two women. Dara and Kula – names made to sound like ‘dracula’ when spoken in succession – are both pregnant when they are killed. With supernatural forces at work, Samad struggles to comprehend the changes in his wife’s behaviour and is oblivious to the women’s desire for vengeance.
