Review of Adhura

Adhura (2023)
3/10
Lacks Horror.
7 July 2023
I have seen many horror series and movies, but none as disappointing as Adhura. The series fails to deliver on its promise of Horror per se, and instead offers a dull and predictable plot that leaves the viewer feeling "incomplete". It is a shame that Indian Cinema has not yet mastered the art of creating effective horror stories, as they resort to cheap tricks like loud horror music and cheesy jump scares that do not evoke any genuine fear or suspense. The characters were also poorly developed and uninteresting, especially the kid who was supposed to be the main focus of the story. I could not connect with his emotions or motivations, and I did not care about his fate. The series lacked any sense of atmosphere or tension, and I found myself yawning and checking my phone more than once. I would not recommend this series to anyone who enjoys horror, or anyone who values their time.
