It Lives Inside

Summary: Indian-American Samidha "Sam" (Megan Suri), already dealing with a culture clash between American society and her Indian origins, accidentally unleashes a demon after a fight with childhood best friend Tamira (Mohana Krishna).

Solid directorial debut with good colour usage. Feels a bit safe, however; not quite as scary as it should be.

Rating: 3.5/5

IT LIVES INSIDE - Review

DISTRIBUTOR: NEON

SYNOPSIS: Sam is desperate to fit in, and not just due to the peer pressure of high school. Turning her back on her Indian culture and estranging herself from her mother and best friend, Tamira . Tamira attracts some negative attention among the students after suddenly becoming withdrawn and unkempt, carrying everywhere a mysterious jar. When Sam confronts her to try and have an overdue heart-to-heart, Tamira reveals that a mythological demonic spirit, the Pishach, has latched onto her and resides in the jar. Before they can finish, Sam accidently breaks the jar and unleashes the spirit. Sam must now come to terms with her heritage in order to defeat it.

REVIEW: Rarely does a genre film come along that draws upon classical mythology, finds a footing for it in a contemporary setting, and weaves it into a generational tale that works on the subconscious and is viscerally haunting. Bishal Dutta Dutta’s IT LIVES INSIDE taps into the lightening of Wes Craven’s original “A Nightmare on Elm Street” while weaving in the literary and cinematic narrative of “the other.”

Bishal Dutta’s screenplay is an outstanding contemporary work of genre fiction. He takes the Hindu and Buddhist myth of the Pishacha, flesh-eating demons often referred to as the very manifestation of evil, and weaves it into a contemporary tale of high school, peer pressure, and assimilation. His main character, Samidha (aka Sam), is not simply dealing with all the pressure of being a teenager, she is revolting against her parents' culture and beliefs. Dutta’s story features many subtle touches of Sam attempting to fit into her view of American life. When Sam finally confronts Tamira, who used to be her childhood best friend, a nightmare is unleashed that forces Sam to confront her beliefs. Dutta crafts a “heros’ journey that Joseph Campbell would be pleased with. Unlike Nancy in Craven’s “Nightmare,” when Sam needs help she has a strong family support system to rely on that adds another dimension to the tale. Additionally, Craven’s Nancy is battling a supernatural that results from the sins of her parents. Here, the appearance of the Pishacha can be seen as a psychological and more complex issue based on Sam’s beliefs and actions. However, like any hero's journey Sam must ultimately find the strength to battle the demon. Dutta’s tale is an exceptional example of horror fiction at its finest.

Clearly Dutta’s previous film work has prepared him well for his feature film debut with IT LIVES INSIDE. The cinematography sets the tone for the film as it maintains a somber mood to the film. He does an excellent job of framing and editing his sequences that adds a lot of tension to the scenes between characters and dread as he builds up to the film's scarier moments. There is a scene when one of the characters is attacked on a wing set that is one for the cinematic history books. Clearly a student and fan of genre films, he plays his creature cards close to his vest as he keeps it in the shadows, building the tension and suspense, building up to its final reveal when Sam must face the nightmare. Even here Dutta keeps it in the shadows, only giving us glimpses, thereby creating a powerful image in the viewer’s subconscious. Truly adding to the emotional intensity of the film is an amazing score by composer Wesley Hughes. There are many unique musical cues that enhance the character’s state of mind in addition to the creepiness of the Pishacha.

The film has a great cast, but the film is clearly Sam’s story, played by actress Megan Suri. Over the years Suri has appeared in numerous television shows, including “Never Have I Ever,” “13 Reasons Why,” and most recently an episode of “Poker Face,” in addition to her film work. She does an outstanding job of drawing the viewer in and taking them along on Sam’s dark epic journey. She conveys the character’s emotional struggles with her family and school life, as well as relationship with her childhood friend. She allows the viewer to feel empathy for the character and she delivers this amazing performance as she builds her resolve in her final battle with the creature.

Bishal Dutta’s feature debut IT LIVES INSIDE is an emotionally disturbing and terrifying coming of age tale. Bishal Dutta is an extremely talented filmmaker who demonstrates a powerful skill as a storyteller. He combines a classic style with a refreshing vision to deliver a formidable tale of terror. Clearly, we can never forget who we are and where we come from because those ancestral myths and legends can haunt a new generation. More frightening is that these nightmares we think we might have left behind can find us regardless of where we settle. IT LIVES INSIDE is a haunting tale that will follow you home. I’m excited to see what Dutta delivers next.
