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 cum 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

It's a good break to the chain of horror comedies. There isn't much elements that will make u jump or scream from your seats but it will hold u in the edge of your seat in the second half.
The first is very average becoz of the over exposition of the characters which wasn't needed for the rest of the movie. It could have been used for adding more elements of horror instead of starting the story in the second half. With the good camera work the BGM is good to create anxiety but it's very normal, (And it's really not needed to tear the audience's ear drum even when its on the script).
With many of the horror sequences present in the narration are highly inspired from Hollywood and visual effects just supporting it and not lifting it up Demonte Colony is one time watch for sure!

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?".

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 which can scare you enough.
The major highlight of the movie would be the length which runs less than 2 hours like a Hollywood movie. Screenplay was another plus which had harmless start and as it paced gradually ensures to spook you. The ultimate strength was the BGM and the art direction which entirely takes us through the supernatural world. VFX was good considering the budget of the movie. Mute light cinematography is what it takes to give you the paranormal mood. One last thing I liked about this film was it had no routine exorcisms exercises by priests. On the negative side the plot had lots of logic holes but what does logic have to in this kind of movie.
Verdict: Yet another haunted house flick which has all it takes to declare as a well made supernatural thriller.

The movie plot revolves around the demonte in chennai who was a french king man lives in the palace long ago which is it is in the alwarpet area.The story is about four people who goes to the demonte palace after more 100 years and one of them steals the demonte wife's necklace to make money.After that the four of them were strucked in their house by the demonte spirit and how they can survive or not is the one line story . Arulnidhi as shreni who done a hero and the producer of this movie done his job neat.The next one is acted in movies like soodhu kavum he done a character as vimal.The other two faces are new.Director done a script with neat screenplay.Vfx is superb in this movie and the BGM is also a great one.since we can feel little bit reference from 1408 movie but is OK.So overall is above average movie with neat in all aspects and fulfill in all aspects especially in the length of the movie

I love international horror movies, Turkish, Russian, Japanese, chinese, korean, Thailand and so on. With one or two exceptions, I have yet to see a remotely scary Tamil / Indian film. I'm not looking for extravagant CGI or makeup, just halfway decent acting, storyline, script, directing. This has nothing except the standard idiotic comic relief that does nothing for the story. The cookie cutter song and dance scenes that add nothing to the story. Musical rip off from the movie Psycho AND a very badly recreated video clip of the movie Ju On. I've seen better 0 budget films made by first time film students or highschoolers. Skip it.
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 are way too clever, wrong again.
I understand the purpose of the ghost, but why kill a astronomer for no reason? would his survival be of any difference? Make jump scares relevant to the plot, don't make the plot revolve around jump scares, that is just a weak script. I think many people like this movie specifically because they weren't expecting a total horror, rather they were in for the horror-comedy, which has been floating for years now. The major up-selling factor is the actors, who have made a really phenomenal effort, much appreciated. Apart from that i would say its a self-convoluted movie which does not know where to go and decided to end when it can't go the distance.
You wouldn't be disappointed, but i was. because i expected something legit and all i got was a ready made story from various sources

Despite being slow paced at the beginning and despite being a low budget movie, the story was well written. I was looking for a good horror movie to watch & found this. It's really nice movie. It was intense towards the end. I just love the ending. This movie is worth watching but it is slow paced until we reach to the main part, the central focus point of the movie. There were unnecessary scenes to lengthen the movie. Keeping that aside, the story is very short, could have been completed in 45 minutes or 1 hour. Still, this is one of the best , not the greatest, but one of my favourite stories to watch in horror genre. It is worth watching but with skip button as there are unwanted scenes included. So, if you trim them from the movie, this is still worth watching. My review is 5 out of 10. This is not a bad movie at all, you just need the forward button to skip some scenes that were unnecessarily added. That's the only fallback in this movie. You will love the story.

I wasted nearly 2 hours is my review. The story, however, had some thrills, but the acting and directions sucks. It is nothing more than a mediocre movie with no expression from any of the actors. The hero in the movie better not continue acting as a profession, because acting has no relationship with him. An average Joe could have done a far better performance compared to him. He is expressionless other than his bulging eyes like Gobbels; the director should have made him the real ghost in this movie. Other than looking at each other without any expression all the actors in the movie look like a deer caught in a headlight. If you want to waste your time, please watch this useless movie. There are many Korean or Asian horror movies that have a better storyline and acting. Skip the movie is my verdict.
