Creature

Vikram Bhatt's 'Creature' is ambitious, but its also flawed & unbelievably predictable. Sure, Bhatt creates a monster that does scare you, but a disappointing romantic-track & lack of drama, spoils the fun.

'Creature' Synopsis: A newly opened lodge in the deep forest of Himachal Pradesh, is haunted by a creature. But, the owner of the resort, decides to take matters in her hands & faces the enemy.

'Creature' begins well, with the opening sequence leaving an impact. The fear of the Creature is nicely build up, but the romantic-track involving the protagonists, is disappointing. Also, there is a lack of drama in the narrative. In short, 'Creature' only works when the Creature appears on-screen. Sadly, there isn't much of the Creature, either.

The Screenplay isn't without merit, but adding a dull romantic-track, certainly could've been avoided. Bhatt's Direction is good, as ever. He creates a world of fear most convincingly. But the Screenplay lets him down. Cinematography is fair. Editing could've been crisper. Music by Mithoon is wonderful.

Performance-Wise: Bipasha delivers sincerely. Imran Abbas Naqvi needs to groom himself. He's raw. Mukul Dev deserved more footage. Deepraj Rana is alright. Aparnaa Bajpai is decent in a cameo.

On the whole, 'Creature' is a watchable fare, at best.

As a fan of horror genre, I have always been curious to watch different kinds of spine-chilling and spooky films. After watching Creature, I was not scared at all and was disappointed as well.

After opening a forest resort in the middle of dense jungle, Ahana( played by Bipasha Basu) is threatened with life-death situation by brahm-rakshash who creates a havoc among the tourist.

From the director of horror films like 1920 and Raaz series, Vikram Bhatt disappoints once again with his lame and over-melodramatic drama. The movie does have a new concept introduced in Indian Cinema but with dose of typical Bollywood narration and unnecessary inclusion of songs will leave you unsatisfied. On the positive side , visual effects are fine with good 1st half. But they are few moments to keep you engaged. when you will watch the film, you will be flabbergasted to watch that the film had no spooky moments enough to scare the hell out of you. In fact, the movie will remind you early 80's Ramsay' classics like Purana Mandir and Veerna which had C-grade actors , blazing lights, big-old broken house. Only silver lining is the storyline and commendable performance by Bipasha Basu.

Overall, a bad film in every context. Avoid at any cost. Below average 1.5 /5

Tried to build a good hollywood style creature movie but ended up with worst movie...

Why would I give this movie 1 star? 1. Horrible acting by most of the actors. 2. Mixture of English and Hindi dialogue is so stupid and so wannabe. Stick with your true "Aukat". Either keep all the dialogues in English or in Hindi. The stupid mixture makes it funny, you wannabe westerners. 3. Horrible screenplay and direction

The only good thing about the movie is the concept of that creature other than that everything is crap. That is the only reason it deserves at least one start otherwise it doesn't even deserve the single star for it's plain stupidity from actors and their acting skills. Entire dialogue delivery and way the direction looks is so fake. Don't even watch this movie if offerred free.

So the movie is about a creature awakened by fault of some construction work which happened in forest.

It was an opportunity for the director and writer to make it above average film but they choose slow paced songs ,unnecessary melodrama and a plot which is ridiculous.

While the movie was premiered in 2014, the graphics used in movie is fair.

Acting wise - No one has done good work.

Ahana had huge amount as loan so she pursued to kill creature . Loan kuch bhi Kara sakta hai !! Lol.

Himachal movie police is so dumb that the only ammunition they got is few guns . Wow!!

I can surely say that the writer was high writing the script .
