The Village

How could 33% of viewers give 10 to this?!! Maybe it's the entire film crew and their families who did... Because nobody in their right mind would give 10 to this. It was awful.

I was really enthusiastic at the idea of watching an Indian horror series, and the first episode was somewhat promising, but I became VERY disillusioned quite fast.

There are so many, and I mean SO MANY discrepancies in this series... Bad guys behavior that changed drastically (!!) when confronting random onlookers or "the heroes". Bad guys who behaved like in a very bad sci fi movie from the 70s: grunting and moving suuuuper slowly (and I really mean it!), for what seemed like an eteeeernity. It was awful. Nothing makes sense. Like absolutely nothing, even according to the script. So many scenes that don't make sense, that just "serve the script" because otherwise the director would be embarrassed and not know how to continue the series. I don't want to spoil, but really it happens way too often. Almost all the time, actually.

Like, even whole characters disappeared from the screen for no reason from one sequence to another, just like "ok from now on we won't be using them because I was lazy with the script, so let's pretend they never existed in the first place ok?". Seriously?! It feels like the script was written while the filming took place. It really does.

The bad guys are poorly done, it feels like papier-mâché from several decades ago. Maybe they did not have the budget, but why insisting on the bad guy's face for so long with the camera? Use suggestion instead, like in the first episode!

The heroes are also super stupid, like you want to smash your TV several times.

Summary: it's a VERY bad TV series, with poor make up, poor script, poor acting (mostly, especially the main hero), and the further it goes, the worse it becomes. The final episode is completely and utterly stupid.

This show kicked off with promise, looking like something new. First two episodes were decent. But then, hit episode 3, and it just nosedived. The main guy, the hero, his acting was off from the start-too corny. And don't even get me started on the CGI; it's stuck in the '90s. Shoutout to the supporting cast, they held their own. Except for that kid girl, her acting was a bit off. Others did fine. Overall, started strong but lost its way. Had its moments, but kind of a letdown. Despite its flaws, I found myself hoping for a redemption that sadly never materialized. Here's to hoping they fix the issues in the next season.

The concept is good but the taking was at its worst. The performance of the actors was purely intended for the early Doordarshan serials.

It was a slow drag serial with disgusting makeup.

We have come a long way. From free Doordarshan serials of the 80s to the 50Rs Dish serials of the 90s, from the 125 Rupees DTH for all Television sets in the same household to the 400Rupees per Tv DTH.

From the 100rupees per ott to the present 700 per OTT subscriptions.

All this development for what, to watch the same old drag serials at 100 times the price.

Got irritated with the last couple of episodes.

It's nothing but the poor version of The Hills have eyes & Wrong Turn combined. Poor Script, Poor casting, Poor CGI, Poor Dialogues Felt like a horror comedy show no intense scenes. It's really pity that nowadays directors can't come with good script, still copying story & scenes from other movies. The only thing I've found positive was Naren acting at some scenes & one disgusting twist. Arya really need to work his acting skills & dialogue delivery. I believe the production budget was less since the CGI quality is low. Started with a bang & ended miserably.

Waste of time, Watch at your own risk !!!

I started watching it but lost it when the guy starts walking in the pitch-dark jungle and claims to walk for 1 and a half hours.

Later he reaches some other small town, talks to people, and starts walking back without getting any help. Dude, just put yourself in his place, why the **** would you go back empty hands, that too walking again?

Later the girl also comes out of the car, starts running around to find their dog, again in the pitch-dark place. At least pretend to hold your phone's flashlight to make it logical.

Stopped watching after those homemade plastic PPU kits and those giant luminescent flowers.
