A very scary film about the supernatural
This movie resembles to other bolywood movies like raaz, bhoot and some hollywoods like poltergeist, exorcist etc. But wat is special about thsi film is that it is scarier than the previous movies, i was literally crapping myself on some scenes. The actress played the best role. The songs weren't to my likeing but the plot was good. The film is about an old mansion that is haunted by evil spirits, many constructors have been here to turn the place into a hotel but the spirit kills them before they can even make any designs. A newly married couple goes there to make the conversion, on the first night the wife hears sounds and sees things. She can get into a room and the next minute it is locked, she tries to tell her busband but he doesn't believe her. She soon gets possessed by the evil being and the husband has to find out the background behind this supernatural being. He finds out that in the 1920's when the british and indians were at war, a indian comrade had snitched on his own groups whereabouts to which many of them got killed. He then fled to the mansion, where 3 woman stayed, there he hid for a while and tehy become suspicios of him. They find out wat he did by a letter, he kills the mother, the little girl fleds and the woman seduces him to draw time so her father can come and killl him. He gets hanged and vows that he will haunt the mansion untill she is dead. So the husband has to sum how carry out some exorcism to extract the evil from his wife's body, he gets a priest to help him but of no use. He being a devout hindu knows the 'bajrang bali' prayer, he recites his and it works. Thus saving his wife from death. Be prepared to be frightened a bit when watching this movie, the effects are excellent, a movie that will do good in the cinema's

The moment Vikram saw a picture of the mansion on the internet, he knew that this place was set to be the hero of his film.
The idea is big, the mounting is lavish and it is his most ambitious film till date.

Without doubt, 1920 is amongst Vikram Bhatt's finest works.
The best thing about 1920 is that the culmination to the story is most compelling, which is so vital for a horror-mystery.
Pravin Bhatt's camera captures the mood splendidly.
