Dipak P. Power pack of entertainment. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/25 Full Review r96 s 'Tumbbad' is very good folk horror fare. It's a movie that feels unusual for what Bollywood tends to offer, at least the sorta films that I've checked out from this part of the world. Aside from the evidently irremovable music interlude, it felt different - a good different. I would say that the story gets a bit underwhelming across the middle portion, though the opening chunk and final moments are impressive - both featuring young actors, in my opinion this flick is at its strongest with Dhundiraj Jogalekar and Mohammad Samad (plus Jyoti Malshe, Rudra Soni) onscreen. The special effects for when the characters are involved with Hastar aren't the greatest, but the film undoubtedly makes it work and it still adds the required creepiness. The practical effects for the 'old woman' are excellent though, very unnerving. Story-wise it is sturdy, it's fairly straightforward in terms of the message of greed but it works and is portrayed nicely. As noted, if not for a meandering middle I'd be rating this higher. All the same, it's a suitably entertaining movie and one that's worthy of recommendation. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review 21 - Priyan B True horror. Rating: 7.8/10 Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review Arun S This was an interesting film on greed and the presentation was awesome. However, there were a few scenes in the film that did not add much momentum to the screenplay in the later half. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/25 Full Review Lee M What a hidden gem. I’ve never seen an Indian horror movie before (I belief it’s Indian). Out of curiosity, I did a google search for one and this one came highly recommended. Since it was free on streaming, I figured, why not. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Avoided all the typical cliches. The beginning part with the kid and the old lady was scary as hell. Felt like this movie is a retelling of a centuries-old myth that doesn’t exist. Seeing how a character transforms as he ages was great. Not at all a flat, one-sided lead that we’re used to in most western horror movies. The only downside is the slightly weaker CG effects. But it’s not enough to spoil the movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Ricardo d É um belo conto de fadas de terror. Temos aqui um trabalho indiano, portanto fugindo das regras ocidentais. O roteiro tem bons momentos de climax. Os cenários e trabalhos de fotografia são primorosos. As atuações sustentáveis. Maquiagem e efeitos também valiosos. A edição falha em alguns momentos não detalhando as ações que são saltadas, deixando no ar para o expectador.
