Must watch movie.....When i saw the movie, i can feel my hearbeat sounds faster. Each and every short,vishual's is outstanding & perfect, No words to say..., 100%% sucess.....movei, spoilers Please dont degrade this wonderful Movei.

I watched Ratsasan today and was compelled to review and ask movie buffs to add this masterpiece thriller in their wish-list. This is a rollercoaster ride which doesn't let you comfortably sit in your seat. This is the longest rollercoaster I have ever sat on. Very gripping narrative, with a mind numbing, soul quenching background score. From cinematography to editing to acting, all in all a masterpiece. Movies first half ends at a point, where you are hungry to discover the killer but the second half leaves you at the edge of your seat until you reach home, still in the reminiscences of the killer, one struggles to sleep. Yes, all of this despite being completely unfamiliar with Tamil language.

This is amongst the best thriller movie to come out of India. Period.

Now I'll rant a little. I'm a Hindi speaker. Why can't bollywood make even close to such movies. Nepotism and Khan kapur nexus has destroyed our movie industry!!

Mild spoilers: Film follows a whodunit style narrative and the lead cop is trying to catch the serial killer that's what forms the crux of the story. Typical concept that we usually see in investigative thriller however what makes it cut above rest is its screenplay and spine chilling bgm. Film has its flaws and often tries to deceive audience by throwing usual bait to confuse and later lead to another perpetrator, to me which was quite obvious. Make up department could have done a better job. On the acting front lead actors were convincing and has done good job. Positives: background score, Screenplay, Actors, cinematography. Negative side: film was quite lengthy, killer's killing motives lack finesse. Film definitely deserves your time and money because after completing watching movie it will definitely haunt you for some time for its eerie vibe and bgm that has to offer you.

I came across this title on IMDb n the synopsis piqued up interest. As a fan of serial killer films n aft seeing almost every Hollywoood, Korean, Spanish n German serial killer films, I can vouch that this film is well made for fans of the genre. I am not familiar with any of the star cast, director or people involved with this film. The lead actor is decent n the actress very hot. The plot is about a man who is obsessed with serial killers n who wants to join film making business but out of family pressure has to join police police force. At the same time there is a serial lurking in the cops's precinct killing young girls. The female who played the cop's sis cannot act for sure. Some of the action sequences were laughable n also the last scene with the cop n the killer face to face n the then hide n seek n the action was a bit lousy. The house of the killer had a creepy feel to it n there is sufficient tension n suspense. The background story of the killer was given too much time, in fact the problem with Indian cinema is that they spoon feed too much but thank God there were no lousy songs n unnecessary muscle flaunting. The film deserves a 7 but I am a bit generous with an 8 cos of the effort.
