Barun Rai and the House on the Cliff

Save yourself from this mess ,don't believe the fake reviews. What starts as John Constantine meets Haunting on hill house is boring ,painful and a complete waste of time.

I don't know what these people are thinking. I usually watch the movies after checking rating on IMDb. But this 8 star rated movie is a complete disappointment. This is full of illogical scenes, pathetic acting and VFX/editing. General, old, poor and boring story also...

I don't usually review on IMDb, but for this I had to, having seen the multiple 10 star user reviews outnumbering all the others on here.

It's obvious that the makers have put a lot of effort into this (mostly in post-production), but the film is a bit of a mess. The titular character doesn't feature all that much to warrant the title, and his gift (demonstrated at the beginning of the film) is conveniently ignored, which otherwise would make a 10 minute film.

There are some good ideas here, but they're not very well executed. The suspense and fear is missing, partly to do with the acting & direction, but more to do with the voice-work. Some character's voices sound like they have been dubbed entirely, so I spent a lot of the film disengaged because it was so jarring. Some characters, no matter where they were, seem to have the same vocal echo; be it a police station, beach head, cottage, etc.

Maybe in years to come I will be proven wrong and this will be a cult film - the silliness was intentional - but for now, a 10 star film it is not.

Story is not extra ordinary pretty simple i mean really simple and direction is worst so many cuts without affect it's like a amature cut videos using their phone no effects between scene change, neither acting was good.

One simple reason not to watch this movie despite high rating: someone may spell "awesome" as "ossum". Some other people may follow suit. But if everyone who is giving a high rating is spelling it the exact same wrong way, it tells you that something is fishy.
