Tunnel 26: The Curse Beneath the Mountain was supposed to release in cinemas in Nepal and Bhutan on October 9, but that release was postponed, with the film now being prepared for a worldwide release instead.
The production team has also announced that the film will now be released in four languages: Nepali, Bhutanese, Hindi and English, with no new release date yet, with further details expected once the worldwide release plans are finalised.
So why the last-minute change?
The official announcement points to the decision to release the film worldwide rather than just in Nepal and Bhutan after the film received such good feedback at its premiere, but there have also been reports of problems too following that premiere, where some viewers complained about dubbing and lip-sync issues, with dialogue not always matching what was happening on screen.
It’s worth pointing out though that the production team hasn’t confirmed these reports as the reason for the postponement, so it’s difficult to say whether they played a part in the decision, but either way, the film did not get the release it was originally supposed to have last week.
Written and directed by DD Kinley, Tunnel 26: The Curse Beneath the Mountain is a horror film inspired by real events involving a tunnel disaster.
