Yellow Veil Pictures knows this all too well, and their latest release, “Rats!” is a perfect example of the kind of risk-taking that can lead to cult status.

Our Western bias often means our references ignore how the themes of love and horror emerge in other parts of the world, particularly Southeast Asia where “Inhuman Kiss 2: The Last Breath” hails from.

After an outstanding showing at last year’s Fright Fest UK, we now get a chance to see if “Cara” is more hype or more horror.
