About Iruttu
Directed by V. Z. Durai, Iruttu (2019) is a gripping supernatural horror thriller that breaks the mold of typical horror-comedy tropes in Tamil cinema. The film stars Sundar C. as a dedicated police officer, Chezhiyan, who is posted to a misty hill station where a series of unexplained, unnatural deaths have left the local community in a state of terror. Unlike many contemporary films in the genre, Iruttu focuses on a serious, atmosphere-driven narrative that explores ancient myths and dark mysteries.
Plot Summary
The story follows Inspector Chezhiyan as he relocates to a remote hill station with his family. The town is soon plagued by mysterious murders that occur during an eerie, unnatural period of darkness. As Chezhiyan digs deeper into the investigation, he discovers that the source of the evil is far older and more sinister than he could have imagined, leading to a high-stakes battle between the living and an ancient supernatural force.
