Malaysia's Mamat Khalid Heads North For WEREWOLF DARI BANGLADESH

Some people rest on success. Not Mamat Khalid. The prolific Malaysian director has a string of hits to his name, many of which mine the horror-comedy vein, but he's showing no signs of slowing down. If anything Khalid seems intent on setting new challenges for himself, finding ways to stretch his signature style into new areas. Today's case in point: Werewolf Dari Bangladesh.

It started 20 years ago, when a Bangladeshi named Mirdu was bitten by a werewolf and ended up turning into a werewolf himself. Not only that, Mirdu turned violent and began to attack the people in his village. The villager then burned down Mirdu's house and hunted him down. Before Mirdu's died, he managed to bite a pair of twins named Kumba and Kumbi, thus, spreading his werewolves' DNA to both of them. Presently in Malaysia, Usop Wilcha moves to a new place with his friend Wahab B and decides to start a business there. At the same time, Kumbi, who is already an adult arrives at Malaysia and plans to spread his werewolves' DNA in Malaysia so that he can eliminate all human species with the help of Jaynab Ramunggei, Usop's new neighbour. Pilun, another foreign worker who works with Usop knew about the situation and tries to inform Usop about it.

Hugely popular comedian Zizan Razak stars alongside a stable of Khalid regulars. No subtitles on the trailer, unfortunately, but it looks like a good time. Check it out below.
