Movie Review: Yeh Raat Honeymoon Ki

Written by Deepti Lamba

There are times when one is so bone tired by the end of the day that all one wants to do is watch a no brainer movie or a flick so rotten that it relaxes the mind with its B grade script, unknown actors and lousy production quality.

Yeh Raat Honeymoon Ki (Honeymoon's Night) was one such crappy Hindi horror movie that I enjoyed from beginning till the very end. The theme was sex based; on the way to going to a place called Khandala, newlywed couples would come across an unexpected turn, and their car would breakdown. A little distance away there was a mansion, maintained by a taciturn caretaker. He would show them to their rooms, and they would try to have sex, the woman would get possessed and death would be the final outcome of the simulated and exceptionally tacky coupling.

The caretaker would warn the couples not to spend the night at the mansion but when they would insist he would let them stay; the pattern repeats until one ugly, horny SOB keeps his pants zipped long enough to crack the case and save his woman from becoming possessed and kill him.

The ghost obviously was the caretaker's daughter who was nearly raped by the rich owner of the house and his friend. In the middle of the rape scene, things got out of hand when the daughter's boyfriend tried to save her culminating in the death of the girl, her lover and later the criminals by the angry ghost of the girl.

When asked why she continued to kill couples she explains that since she didnt get some, she didnt want anyone else to have some either. She sounded more like a mother in law wilfully out to jeopardize a young couple's marital relations than a irate ghost.

The happy ending comes easily when the possessed heroine is hypnotised and the ghost is made to leave the body.
