I remember watching this for the very first time with my family, good old days that time when Bollywood used to make great movies.

(2012) 1920: Evil Returns

Yes 'evil returns' is not in the same league as previous 1920. The acting, horror and direction are not as par with 1920 but the 'story' and 'music' is something that is better than previous 1920. The story is fantastic, even acting by the girl (Tia) is very good and comparable to 1920 girl (Adaah). Music is definitely better with quite a few hummable songs. I think the direction is a bit loose and there are not much scary moments. Aftab is good. I think his role was of a silent and introvert person and he performed it well. Overall a great movie. Do not go by negative reviews and low ratings. The movie is definitely worth a watch. 8/10 from me.

1920 was much better than this. like so many other sequels this 1 also fails miserably. very bad movie. don't go any waste your money. i wasted my money and then i am writing this to warn others to not do the same as i did. not a single scene to scare you. even children were not scared watching this movie. so friends please don't go to see this s**t. avoid it n save your time and money. i don't how some people are praising anything about this movie. very bad acting by everyone, useless dialogs, waste of time. Creaking doors, background music trying hard to scare, laughing ghost for some joke that nobody knows, , extra innocent lady possessed by a evil spirit who just won't let go - yep these and many more standard ingredients of a horror film trying hard to scare. It doesn't really scare at all. in one word...........AWFUL

1920 Evil Returns---Not Much Too Horror But Pretty Good Just like an unbeaten series of Raaz, Vikram Bhatt is successfully making a franchise of his 2008 hit movie '1920'. As it's a sequel, one would be definitely expecting a better product than the original. Thus '1920 - Evil Returns' should be spookier, horrifying and attention-grabbing, along with an excellent storyline, more than '1920'. However the makers had effectively impressed the moviegoers, especially to the one who have loved the first part....... 6/10 Awesome Direction by VIKRAM BHATT Pluses: Full of chilling moments, impressive background score, edgy-direction Minuses: Climax is stretched,songs come as lo break Watch it for real jump out of the seat moments

Seeing 1920 brings back memories of B.R chopra's Mahabharat,mainly the portion between Dronacharya and eklavya.With this film Vikram Bhatt again proves that he is a modern day eklavya to the Ramsay brothers who act as his multiple dronacharyas.From the screech in the opening scene (which takes place in a jungle set where the fog machine naturally went on an overdrive) to the hero(a beefy Aftab with an even beefier stubble) strapping a Om printed cloth onto his hand and grabbing the the collar of the evil spirit,Bhatt gives a proper shraddhanjali to the fathers of the Indian horror genre.The film is replete with innumerable clichés from horrific close ups,a homeless villager who can see spirits,secondary characters who get murdered one by one to some forgettable love scenes,but just when it seems that the film is going to sink like the titanic halfway through the runtime,it picks up steam,some interesting back stories are shown and ultimately it hurtles towards a memorable climax.The climax is full of spine chilling moments,the actress Tia bajpai makes up for her careless acting in the 1st half by delivering some gruesome moments with great panache.Ultimately on seeing 1920,you are left with the feeling of savoring a biriyani from a roadside stall,your stomach churns a few time,you have to gulp a few extra glasses of water but ultimately you would be left craving for more.

This movie was really diabolical one.What do you want to expect from this movie a good plot,horrorness,scary environment,honestly saying that it really ruined the expectations and hopes that people had.This movie continued to torcher me for the time that i spend in the theatre.I thought that this time Vikram Bhatt will do something unexpected but to no avail.Some scenes of this movie were same as there in 1920 like the ghost was knowing the family background of priest. Honestly,i will say that Jia Khan was far more scary than Tia bajpai.Arjun Rathod was best in acting than the experienced Aftab Shivdsani.I really liked the songs sung by ghost that was something new added to this sequel.

"Tum achha sangeet gaa leti ho. Tumhara naam Sangita rakhenge." is one of the few gems that is delivered with a serious face by Jaidev Verma played by none other then Aftab the great, in a movie that is so genuinely entertaining(unintentionally). Talking bad about a movie that made me laugh so hard through out non-stop would not do justice because I got more than my money's worth. So here's what I thought about this movie. This movie is one of the best unintentionally enjoyable films that you would ever find. Talking about all the different factors in this film like direction, acting and all is hilariously futile. Except for one actor named Sharad Kelkar who does something that resembles the word "acting". But I'm sorry I never went into watch anyone act! In fact this isn't a movie that you sit and seriously watch. It's a movie to make fun at and in the process get all your money's worth. So go buy a cheap ticket and be the dialog writer of this movie along with your friends. Bring out the creativity in you man! Conclusion: Go strictly with a group of friends, keep an open mind and have a blast. You will enjoy like you have never enjoyed before. Thank you Vikram Bhatt.
