Odiyan Review

'Odiyan' is based on an urban folklore legend in Kerala.  A fantasy thriller, the Mohanlal-starrer is based on the legend of Odiyan, who in the Kerala folklore are men possessing shapeshifting abilities, who could assume animal form at will.  As a synopsis of the film says, "Odiyans are said to have inhabited the Malabar region of Kerala before the era of electricity."
