A film that has totally suprised me..... As I didn't expect much from the film.... On the whole '1920' is a well made film in every aspect. A Fascinating experience. it sure has moments that give you chills down your spine. Vikram Bhatt makes a grand comeback with 1920. As far as the box office, it has all the takes to become a box office super-hit. A must watch for horror film buffs!

Believe it or not Vikram Bhatt’s 1920 is far better than RGV’s Phoonk. I am really impressed by the director who is extremely brilliant in many of sequences. But the slow screenplay, and not so good story makes it little awkward indeed the movie is taken over by ultimate performance by Adha Sharma, who is USP of the entire friction. Rajneesh Dugal is good in his first step. I didn’t like the Rakhi Sawant’s usless item number. But belive me par-excellence Art work by Rajat Poddar throws audience in the same era of British period and hard to imagine cinematography by Pravin Bhattt takes all. 1920 is one of the finest supernatural thrillers MADE IN INDIA

This movie will invoke extreme reactions. There will be some who will absolutely adore this movie while there will be some who will abhore it. But trust me, this is a superior product than Raaz. Also the climax is the most satisfying and energetic one amongst all hindi horror movies I have seen. There are some flaws like the two songs in the 2nd half which stick out like sore thumbs. But if you discount that then the movie is definitely worth a watch. The screenplay (especially in the first half) is taut and filled with tension. Actors have done a decent job. This is the finest effort by Vikram Bhatt. It's better than Raaz and Ghulam was a copy of 'On the waterfront';so Vikram Bhatt doesn't deserve any credit for Ghulam. Go for it.

Saw the Yesterday night show , and what to say , Adah Sharma is really pretty in the non-horror scenes and really spooky in the horror scenes. Well to sum up , a well made horror film , with Vaada being the hit song by Pandit Jasraj. Infact even Rajneesh has done a good job.The only song which kind of sucks is the Rakhi Sawant number 'Bichooa'. Raj Zutshi as the priest is quite apt for the Role. I think after Phoonk being a success this one to is going to follow the same path and may even be a bigger hit. A good watch for people who like movies of the horror genre. Both the newcomers are looking good and have acted well. See it !

Haunted mansions, deserted forests, overprotective priests and of course a quintessential old…
Haunted mansions, deserted forests, overprotective priests and of course a quintessential old caretaker and that too in Victorian times, Welcome to the Text-Book Horror world of Vikram Bhatt , an antipode of Ramu’s Drawing room horror, which of lately has become the taste of Indian moviegoers. The film opens with a horse-cart passing through a 19th century forest, and then the camera shifts to a Pennsylvanian castle, and an architect arriving there with a contract letter. God, Bram Stroker’s classic’s prologue coming alive on screen! I knew this movie had nothing to do with the iconic novel, especially because you can’t expect a side actor to portray Jonathan Hawker. So why was he there? Obviously to die in a heinous manner, and thus trying to create a great opening for the title credits and he did succeed to an extent. As soon as the title credits roll, camera zooms in to a Herculean body in a hanuman temple in rural Rajasthan and enters our hero Arjun Singh Rathore(Rajneesh Duggal), who is in love with a vidharmi(in his father’s words) girl “Lisa†and is ready to leave his “parampara†and “khandaan ki izzat†for a “do take ki ladkiâ€. After delivering some heavy duty dialogues (which most model turned actors refrain from doing, watch him and you “ll know,why?) about love, religion and God, our hero leaves the village and gets married to his love. Hell, did we buy the tickets for a horror movie or this dreary Social drama!! But wait, soon our hero gets a contract by his firm to go to the same haunted mansion. The carriage lands in front of the castle again and we knew it’s time for some action. I don’t think, I need to tell you that Lisa soon becomes the victim of an evil spirit. So, where was I, yes, so as the rules go, Lisa starts doing all the bizarre activities that a soon-to-be-possessed woman should do, like sleepwalking, entering into a locked room and finding a wall sized portrait of a princess(Monjulika, anyone!!), and yes, there is a piano too(How come ghosts have this crush on pianos, I am yet to see guitar playing bhoot!), which she plays effortlessly and suddenly we heard a pat on her shoulder with a “bang†kind of background score, and we found her husband mouthing this don-to-death line, â€tum itni raat ko yahan kya kar rahi ho?â€. After a couple of such scenes it’s time to make some grueling faces and uttering manly dialogues for our leading lady. Enters into the scene a priest(Raj Zutshi) and a doctor, who seem to have seen many Ramu’s kind of horror movies as he tells Arjun “Can’t you see, she needs medical treatment, your wife is suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder(in 1920!!), you have to admit her into the hospital right nowâ€, and the father, a true Ramsay devotee, he utters this old rotten crap, “My child, Don’t try to ignore the truth, your wife is possessed, no medicine in this world can help her, but only God â€, and then ……………………………………………………………………… Then what, if the whole story will be told by me, who is going to buy Rs. 49 CD’s and Rs. 99 DVDs from PlanetM and MusicWorld, two months from now, because I know most of you are not going to the theatres for this one. For those who are really desperate to know, the rest of the movie takes you to a 40 minutes long flashback and a 20 minutes long climax. Where the former asks to leave your brains at home, the later though being surprisingly frightening, ends up with one of the most frivolous endings, I have seen in a long time. For those who really, really desperate to know, the flashback takes you back to the 1857 freedom struggle of India, and a story of giving away one’s womanhood for the sake of catching an apostate, Crapp!!! Why you should not go to this movie A horror movie 16 reels long, what was Vikram Bhatt thinking, even Ramsay movies used to be 12-14 reels. Let’s talk about music, though the tracks are soothing on ears, but they are totally out of place and if you have heard this phrase, “though the songs are ordinary but they look awesome when come onscreenâ€, it’s completely opposite here. Rajneesh Duggal said in an interview “I want people to get rid of this perception that models can’t actâ€, like many others in the past, he too fails. At least he could have exposed his chiseled body to attract some of the females; it could have resulted in getting some more tickets sold. Sorry Rajneesh, better luck next time (only if you will get another!!) Raj Zutshi’s overtly American accent gets on your nerves, especially when he enunciates that “Don’t worry ma childâ€, made me feel like slapping him. Why you can watch this movie in the first week If you have a girlfriend , go with her, there are plenty of moments to jump on your seat, cling to each other and hold each other’s hands tightly If you have a group of friends, and you want to have a good laugh, go and enjoy the typical Bollywood cliché moments, the movie is full of them. If you are those intellectual types who grew up on Hollywood movies, go for this one, you will find enough copycat material to grumble in this Dracula-meets-Stigmata-meets-Exorcist Why you should watch this movie in theatres in the second week Some of the scenes are genuinely scary, even though at times you will sense an “Aahat†kind of feeling, but you can’t deny that they are not scary indeed There is plenty of action in the movie, especially in the second half and of course, in the climax. It’s not like Ramu’s movies where you get two minutes of chills and one hour of prosaic camera movements on porcelain monkeys in a two hour movie The movie has an atmospheric kind of feeling, because of the textbook horror ingredients like the forlorn castle, and the picturesque forests surrounding the mansion. Watch out the hovering black clouds over the mansion, it looks ethereal! The actress though a bit wooden in first half, delivers a fine performance in the second half, watch her expressions while being possessed, she was way better than Vidya Aunti, in fact most of the viewers were wondering whether it was the same lady in the two avatars. She has this eerie coldness in her appearance which made her a perfect choice for playing this damsel. If you “re wondering what’s the story behind second week, read the previous section again, as you will find most of the viewers will be doing the same what I have written above. So if you want to enjoy the movie, avoid watching it in a crowded theatre, which I couldn’t unfortunately. A major factor why I liked this movie is the hoopla around Phoonk, it really got on my nerves to see those imbeciles telling on camera that it was scary as hell, if Phoonk deserves to be a hit, then so does 1920(Though I know, it won’t), and if some dimwits think that Phoonk was scary, then they should be made to sit and watch 1920, which is way better than Phoonk.

I never seen any movie like this in indian horror gener vikram bhatt really done very very very well .dont have enough word to show his excellent work in 1920 . we should never compare it with ramo phonk becoz 1920 in front of phonk ramo all horror film not more than a shit . Film location very good specially as they show allerton castle and camera man done his work very well . good story by vikram bhatt not like raaz which having some connection with english movie "what lies beneath". Ada acting mindblowing as compared urmila acting in bhoot. and vikram bhatt should continue his work in horror genre beocz as i think only he can give a hard hand to hollywoord in horror genre . Adnan sami music did work very well . I still wanna say too much about this movie but time is short good luch vikram for your next horror production like purple lake and phir .
