Review of Raat

Raat (1992)
5/10
Way to long to get to the payoff.
7 March 2004
Raat was an OK movie but was not all that scary and used music and dream sequences throughout to make it seem scarier than it was. I will have to admit that, for the most part, the music was a great asset to the film. I think that about 3/4 of the film was a lead in to the last quarter which was pretty decent but no more effective than most B Grade movies of the type. There were also way too many red herrings throughout the film and, when the girl acted possessed, it looked like she was acting possessed. The film quality was also only so-so. A much better film of this genre on all counts is Bhoot where Urmila really looks and acts possessed and the chills and story are top notch in every respect.
