Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past Twitter Reviews

The horror film is released today. If you are interested in watching the movie, here's what netizens have to say.

Given below are some social media reactions:

User ‘iamshreytyagi’ wrote, “Every shot in #HauntedEchoesOfThePast that doesn’t have real faces is fully AI-generated (very low res). The shots with real actors are shot on green-screen & blended with AI-generated sets. 3D is also AI-converted (it was inverted, so I watched whole movie with reverse glasses). Apart from that, judging by the kind of story it has, it too doesn’t seem to have been written by a real human. Even the title of the movie looks AI-generated. Yes, I am idiot that I went to watch this movie. Anyone who goes to watch this movie will feel the same.”

Another one, ‘DIVYASOLGAMA’ commented, “#Haunted3D - Echoes Of The Past - Review...‘Highly Gripping Tale Of Love, Deceit & Chills…’ The Ramsay Brothers defined the horror genre in India, followed by B-grade filmmakers like Mohan Bhakri, Kanti Shah, and others. The '90s era elevated the genre further with directors like Mahesh Bhatt and Ram Gopal Varma. The latter took it to the next level, followed by #VikramBhatt in the early 2000s. Vikram kept experimenting with different kinds of horror movies, a few of which ended up being big hits—including 'Haunted', which was in 3D. Audiences loved its music, horror, and 3D chills. After a long gap, he returns with its sequel in the form of Haunted 3D - Echoes Of The Past. The film starts on a slow note, but the moment it enters the horror premise, it holds you until the last frame. The story is super engaging and intriguing. The current track, followed by the flashbacks, is nicely written and presented on the big screen. The finale is nail-biting. The lead actors, #Mimoh and #ChetnaPande, play their parts with full conviction. Chetna adds a mystical element to her character, which works in the film's favour. Music has always been Vikram Bhatt’s forte. There are a few good, soulful songs here. A special mention goes to a Rajasthani song that has been brilliantly placed in the film. The only downsides are the initial usage of AI and the desire for more horror elements, along with a few more impactful jump scares. There are some in the finale, but the film needed more of them throughout. Nevertheless, the story and the music are highly engaging, which helps this movie end up as a winner.
