1920-Evil Returns' has a threesome in a house that looks similar, doing ditto. It may not be a sequel, but it uses the same old notes to scare us. Creaking doors.

What 6 critics are saying
Critical reception for '1920: Evil Returns' is largely negative to mixed, with most reviewers finding it derivative and unoriginal. A handful of critics acknowledged that the film generates some genuine scares, particularly in its second half, and benefits from its association with Vikram Bhatt's horror brand. However, the predominant criticism is that the film relies on familiar horror tropes, suffers from weak writing, and offers nothing new to the genre. At least one critic found it outright bland and cold, with little to recommend.

5.0On the whole, 1920 - EVIL RETURNS scares and shocks in bits and spurts. The film rides on Vikram Bhatt's brand, more so after the super success of RAAZ 3, but its writing plays the spoilsport.

4.01920 Evil Returns has nothing new to offer, but if you do want to watch a scary movie for the heck of it, then go ahead.

3.0Overall, '1920: Evil Returns' showcases some good 'horror' moments in the second half, provided you sustain the tyranny of the first half.

2.01920 Evil Returns is yet another needless horror film. It's cold and bland.
