13 B Review / Comments

I saw 13 B, supposedly a horror!

A friend of mine who gets scared at the silent hiss of the wind, overcame her fear of the supernatural after seeing this movie.

It’s more of a suspense thriller; however the suspense is revealed by some harmless sprits living in the idiot box of the house.

Yes, that’s true. The storylines trying to say that “if souls can get into a human body, which is supposedly the most complex machine; why can’t they get into simpler machine like a TV or radio or phone, and use them to communicate with people”. Wired ah... An inspiration of a Hollywood movie ‘White noise’.

It’s not a big budget movie, 70% of it being shot in one house with around 10 soapy unattractive actors, and the remaining movie has been shot in vicinities of Mumbai and B’lore.

The script of the movie is not very strong, you will walk out with lots of unanswered questions:

· Why could the nail not be put on the wall, when the divine photos were already in the house

· How can a 3 decades old photo album be extracted from a newly constructed building’s play area

· When everything was true, why did the cop’s wife survive

· Why was the lift not working for Madhavan, when the gosht were supposedly in the TV

· Why was only Madhavan’s pic in the mobile corrupted

· Dr Shinde first appearance in the movie is as a psychiatrist, but operates on the mothers leg problem and wife’s miscarriage

However the good part of the movie is, it keeps people engaged with multiple action filled events, which not necessarily have head or tail.

Another plus is, its script writer Vikram Kumar has well managed to keep the suspense on till the end.

If you wish to watch this movie, I would recommend you waiting for its VCD to be out.

NJoy,

Happy viewing.
