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.

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.

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.

Good flims not needs Big budget , yes there is some loopholes and no logic things.

But the quality of movie and screen Play is very good with superb comedy scene, must watch.
