As per my post somewhere:

Adapted from the Monkey's Paw (the 2nd half was exactly that except instead of using the moors in Northern England, the setting is Kagbeni and the Jomsom area).  Reminded me of the play that was performed in the house concert every other year at school.  Apart from that, movie was acted well (actors are all professional theatre performers in Ktm).  Highlight of the movie: The love scene, that did make all around the hall twitch a lil...Was uncalled for, but justice was done considering that the conservative Nepali film industry is still in its infant stages (superglued to that same caliber for the past 20 years or so).  Beside the 2 main roles, Mohammed Hanif has done a terrific job...Never knew that the bugger could act except for the occasional roles back in the days during the school concerts.  Awesome!! 

BTW, the psychological udus and upiya bites were prevalent throughout the movie...Once again, it was just a psychological thing.  Who knows, maybe since there already was another hindi movie screened before Kagbeni was, the udus and upiya were already full.  LMFAO
