No plot, no story, no script
only with few horror scenes they made a movie
total time waste and one of worst horror movies ever seen.
Acting of faisal qureshi and sameena peerzada is good but that is the only point story is super bakwas as even child stories are better than this , I mean whoever wrote the story must be fired from this industry.
Then plot and speed is too slow and even boring and sometimes I want to fast forward the movie but have to be there as I paid money for ticket.
Pakistan cinmea made some good movies in the past like majla jatt but this movie really disappointment and made me sad.

The plot was painfully slow-you kept waiting for something to happen, but it didn't build until the interval. Even after that, the story didn't take off, and the ending felt completely forced. The film only grabbed some attention in the last 15 minutes. The CGI was awful; practical effects with makeup would've been much scarier and more effective. Instead of being scared, the audience was laughing throughout. It felt more like a bad comedy than a horror film. Soundtrack and sound mixing were also poorly done and failed to build any tension or suspense. Very disappointing overall, not worth the hype.
I waited a month to watch this movie and I feel stupid. The movie had no character build up and the ending felt so rushed. I got sick of the house shots. It felt like the director ran out of ways to show that the days are passing by. The horrible CGI just made it worst. They could have hired so many talented individuals but they decided not to. The movie had so much potential. Each character in the movie had zero arcs. The storyline was dry and boring. I just wanted to leave. There was no build up. The entire storyline was focused on the mother and it ended with her. They could have ended it in a better way. Just disappointing.
Deemak does a fantastic job as a psychological horror film, giving us a very realistic take on horror within a middle-class household. The grounded story and strong acting create a real sense of tension and dread.
What makes Deemak stand out is how it dives into psychological trauma, mental health, and family struggles, issues that are very real in our society but rarely talked about. The horror isn't just about ghosts, it's about emotional breakdowns and the weight of guilt and fear.
Sure, the CGI could've been better, but the message, story, and performances more than make up for it. For Pakistan's first take on psychological horror, it's a really solid start.

When watching a horror film in Cinema I expect to be scared, maybe not leave a scaring impact on me for days but at least in the move... The VFX was not really impressing, better editing can even be done by YouTubers. But overall not a bad choice, this was the first Pakistani horror film and was definitely not a bad first step. I'll recommend to watch it 👍 support Pakistani cinema in this genre for the people who are tired of typical love/comedy Pakistani films. It had great acting by the old woman, great expressions by her... Faisal Qureshi also played a very nice role, just like realistic, typical family men of Pakistan.
