    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Betaal' offers a unique zombie horror concept blending Indian mythology, eliciting mixed reactions. Praise is given to the cinematography, production design, and initial gripping episodes. However, the storyline is criticized for being predictable and shallow. Acting performances are seen as inconsistent, with some efforts appreciated and others deemed lackluster. Special effects and zombie makeup are often faulted for being subpar. The series is also criticized for relying on clichés and lacking originality. Despite these issues, some find 'Betaal' enjoyable for its novelty and entertainment value.

    First of its kind!

    Betaal is a spooky treat to watch. Unique concept, good acting and direction having forgettable dialogues but backed by concrete storyline.

    The show loses its grip for a while in third episode but apart from that it will keep you on your toes for sure. A definite watch for the fans of horror genre.

    P.S. Army of dead could have been more scarier!😅

    Fresh & new Story

    I found the Story line of Betaal very refreshing & new. The Indian version of Zombie Army is done quite well. I just felt that the Emotional Scenes of the Characters could have been much better developed. It sometimes gave the impression of the scene dragging.

    The ending left us with Season 2 that should come

    Good try .... Watchable , nice storyline , flaws but don't mind that much 👍

    Indian serieses are trying something new ... We should appreciate it. May be next season will be much better than this. Less horror more thriller 👍. People giving single star needs peace truly. Everything which is made for screen has lot of effort behind that thing. Work appreciation is must 👍

    great start, average in middle, disasterous End!

    First episode was great, plausible plot, interesting characters, great cinematogrophy. 2nd Episode did pretty well, great horror scenes, fast paced, not knowing what the next minute will reveal. 3rd Episode was lazy, Soldiers being stuck in a building & doing nothing but wait, with no real plan. let alone plan B or C. The actions of the soldiers made no sense, 90% of action is you watching rifles being fired. Nothing else. 4th Episode was disasterous. No surprises, nothing interesting happens. Actors just look lazy and not interested in trying, again no real plan. the final "plan" on how to end all this was a "chutiyan" plan, in one of the soldiers' own word.

    Cinematography was pretty good for the indian standard. Acting was bad. Even Viineet Kumar, (whom I personally admire , he is a fantastic actor) was just clueless 80% of the show.

    Hope there is no more seasons, or at least not with the same writer & director. Disappointed.

    Great beginning, messy ending. Rushed but worth watching

    Not bad, felt like watching a horror game like last of us. Didnt expected to be a zombie movie. It was more like a scary demon/monster movie. In fact, the first 2 episodes brings great horrific scenes and effects that can beat most of the horror movie. Story wise was okay, glad that they use an ancient cultural practice and mix it with curses, zombie and demons. Most of the casts were okay except for the colonel. Saanvi was annoying throughout the series. Everything getting messier starting in 3rd episode. Few things that doesnt make sense, the last episode was dissappointing, probably run out of budget or ideas for continuation. Glad that i watched, enjoyed the horror aspect of this. Recommended.
