Junglemahal: The Awakening

Refreshing Indian low-budget hits all the marks for a quality production - great acting, perfect script, A+ atmosphere & photography. The sense of dread throughout was a nice change of pace. The Indian rainforest as well as the magnificent ancient house were the true stars of the film, really making a don't-miss all by themselves. It's IMPOSSIBLE not to love the visuals amongst the rainforest backdrop.

No annoying bickering, audio or lighting issues. Just sit back, relax & enjoy a well-made film for a change. It's a contender in that regard - high standards. And it is mostly in English as well so you don't have to read the movie.

To be honest, the horror elements didn't impress me & the story wasn't that interesting. But the authenticity of the jungle natives was cool. And the whole thing was very believable so you could just go along for the ride.

The director takes you through a journey of events with a group of travellers stranded in the middle of nowhere near the eastern ghats of India in 1985. Zthe series of events follow a storyline of the travellers, the days they spend in an abandoned guest house and the aftermath.

The story is very well supported with the awesome cinematography and sound design. More than some of the jumpscares, the director has focussed on making you fell eeire through the music and the setpiece. Its more of an environmental horror.

These kinds of movies are very rarely made in India and I wish more and more movies are made in this genre.

Another thriller by the Hindi Parallel Cinema, and they dont fail to deliver! This movie is destined for great things!!! Not at all predictable, this thriller keeps you on the edge of your seat and guessing the entire time.

In a nutshell the movie is about a young people who travelled to a haunted house for reaserch . And things they encounter during their journey and the hidden threats they should face .

Excellent performances by both the male and female leads . The supporting actors were pretty decent too. This is a movie thats worth spending your time to watch, so hurry and catch it, you wont be disappointed!

Constantly something creepy happening on the screen and you don't have any time to catch your breath. Out of all the horror movies I've seen this is one of the few that actually had a scene that caught me off guard. I think it is a pretty scary horror movie which you can enjoy safely with your family as there are no explicit scene. Furthermore, you can experience something unusual watching horror movie set in Kolkata. I really recommended this film for those that love horror film. If I have to give a score for this film as a horror I would rate it 10 out of 10. Give this trailer a try first...

The movie captures the location and settings of rural, interior eastern mountain ghats and jungles of Bihar like never before. It captivates the audience right from the start and probably holds them till the end. Full marks to Cinematography and the DOP. Use of lights was done exceptionally well in the constrained budget. Actors were decent although there wasn't much scope for performance given the weakest link of the movie - script and screenplay. It's an average story described in a stale way, thus leaving very little for the actors. Overall, the movie does succeed to haunt you in some parts.
