    Awesome

    "Kaalo," featuring the versatile Ajay Devgn, is a gripping and thrilling cinematic experience that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Devgan's performance is outstanding as always, bringing depth and intensity to his character. The film's plot is a rollercoaster of suspense and horror, and the direction is impeccable. The antagonist, Kaalo, portrayed with eerie perfection, is truly terrifying. The cinematography and special effects add to the movie's overall appeal, creating a visually stunning experience. "Kaalo" is a must-watch for those who enjoy a combination of horror and suspense with top-notch performances, making it a true gem in Indian cinema.

    The movie has already become one of my favorites.

    Nightmare inducing

    Kaalo presents a unique look in the horror genre due to it being one the few horror movies in the 2000s to be shot entirely in the daylight. This can seem like a minor and overglorified thing to critics and audiences alike, but from the perspective of a 2000s kid, this was the stuff of nightmare. The human psyche associates only the night with fear of the unknown. From childhood, the darkness of the night was the only source of paranormal fear in our lives, However this movie broke this boundary fantastically with the haunting occuring in broad daylight. This broke our perception of the paranormal itself, which according to this move, could attack us in the day, and countinously haunt a moving location instead of just remaining in a place such as an abandoned home. Absolutely phenomenal movie, and in my opinion one the best horror ever produced by indian cinema.

    CULT

    I know I know it's a copied film Jeepers Creepers blah blah blah...but hey "NAKAL KE LIYE BHI AKAL CHAHIYE " having said that Jeepers Creepers film series is one of my all time favourites still I had to say this desi version is quite good the people on the bus are characterised so well, we got to see the human nature of each individual when faced with the dance of death in the dust of Kulbhata and the makers tried to scare us in the middle of a hot sunny day and the backstory of Kaalo lends a great support in characterisation of the story I believe this film gives wholesome entertainment if not an award or acclaim.

    A proper horror movie made in Bollywood.

    The purpose of a horror movie is to scare you.and this film, absolutely serves the purpose. I watched it multiple times and as a kid growing up around urban legends, it was the only movie I was scared of watching.still the thrill to is , Awesome!

    I was 10 first watching the movie I was a brave boy , as my parents went out to work.the movie was broadcasted on TV. I actually didn't know that it was a horror film. I just saw the main character, I knew as Avijit.

    Yes, I agree there were scenes inappropriate for children.but I didn't get it until I was sixteen. Then it was only fear. Boy! I had nightmares!

    Now at 21 it's just an nostalgia.but still I hope there will be movies made which actually serves the purpose they say .

    Rather then cheap entertainment.
