Demonte Colony

Before actually reviewing let's quickly analyse the horror fever in Tamil movies. It obliviously seems to be hitting high this season. All horror movies have done well in the box office proving ghosts have become more bankable for producers than big stars. More over thesehorror flicks doesn't require high budget becoming producer friendly.All the recent flicks in this genre had more comedy and less scares but "Demonte Colony" come as the coin changer. Director Ajay Gnanamuthu has made his debut with some perfect ingredients to present a creepy tale that might make you petrified. Haunted houses are always been most sought after subject when it comes to horror stories. Demonte Colony is a story four friends who lives in housing board in Pattinampakkam, Chennai and their dare to visit a house which is believed to be haunted for years. They come back with an evil spirit which puts them in a situation which has no escape. In short the after effects of visiting a ghost house. So the paranormal activity is the rest of the plot. For a ghost story the director has also ensured a quick period flashback with a killing spree. This is a typical low budget movie with no A-list actors. In fact the story completely revolves around the four protagonists among which are the Mounaguru fame Arulnithi who has the boy next door image , Ramesh Selvan and other two where new faces. All four of them had equal screen space. The antagonist played by a Finnish actor who has the natural built and looks w

Superb acting mixed with humour that actually fits, unlike what we see now nowadays where they just randomly throw something in that completely throws the viewer off due to the sudden, unexpected and not needed change of pace. There was a twist early in the film that completely had me shook and thinking like "How could I fall for that?".

Pro's: Brilliant Screenplay.. Excellent Cinematography...According to the budget given Thrilling Storyline, Excellent twists in the story...several unexpected sequences. Excellent Direction...well directed by a newcomer...Interesting show of level design and the background of the movie. Brilliant thinking in making the character's house as the haunted location, making the necklace the source of the haunting. Great acting shown by the main character and the comedian. Focus was well given to the haunting rather than on the main character. Removed all unnecessary f

I might have rated this movie down, but please bare with me for my explanation. I would say the genre is now changing and movies have adapted to be funny, yet with a few jump scares. In that pattern, this is a flip-version. No fun at all, only scares. So good job movie in bringing the crux of the horror flicks back to us. Apart from that, the movie is very flat Honesty in movies will always strike a chord, but when you mix a lot of Hollywood movies and try to recreate the same scare, no movie no! That's just a cocktail of laziness. Seriously, make movies with a purpose. The premise was about a colony in Chennai, which was very intriguing, in that sense it should have been either a "Found footage" genre or a horror-based on real events. In the end it's neither of these two, which is very disappointing. If this was your story you might as well chosen any place to script your story, just does not make sense. First, the camera speed, by god, the slowest i have ever seen, moving from one frame to other almost made me sleepy. I understand the movie is waiting for the peeking factor, but in the end it just makes it so boring. The second, the murders were so freaking confusing, here i think the director has made a mess of things. The plots were way too convoluted and it just keeps adding in more. Plot twists are good when done in moderation, you do more, people just lose interest and when the dots don't connect you are just making a mockery of your ignorance and you still think you a

The word "horror" has become increasingly cheap in today's Tamil cinema with every week has a horror movie waiting to be released.Even though Muni stared it all its because of Pizza we are having whole lots of horror movies in Tamil cinema in last 5 or 6 years. Except 3 or 4 films remaining are mostly disappointing mainly because of Masala approach by not giving importance to the script and story. But this is where Demonte colony differ from other movies. The story starts When four friends after getting drunk in a bar, decide to do something interesting and eventually break into a terrifying bungalow in Demonte Colony which is believed to be possessed by spirits. The next morning when they return home, a chilling turn of events takes them hostage and puts everyone's life at jeopardy. Will they come out of these unanticipated circumstances alive? This forms the rest of the story. The movie doesn't have large cast so no place for female lead and comedians but the cast has done great job with their performance. Arulnithi again does an excellent job. He has a knack for choosing a good script hope he continues to choose good script in his future projects . All 3 other male friends with significant screen space also stand out. Director Ajay Gnanamuthu has done great job with the script, though he takes time in establishing characters, things speed up once they enter the bungalow.Brilliantly written and well executed. Cinematography by Aravind Singh is excellent. All the scenes are

Demonte colony is a roller coastal ride with twist. Director R. Ajay Gnanamuthu scripted the movie himself. Main factor of the movie is that this is not a usual Horror movie like Ghost/Evil coming and scarring you inseconds and vanish off. This movie makes you the feel of the invisible Ghost who is haunting down in behind. 1:30 hours of movie is inside a house were we don't get bored nor the grips get loosed. Director * screen writermakes us gelled on to the screen with the Scenes. One main part which i noticed is the background score by Keba Jeromiah, ( reference is from bernard herrmann Psycho) even though he had played a vital role in elevating the scenes. Am sure its a 2 time watch for everyone who are the fans of Horror thriller genere
