Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt is back with another horror movie. Titled 1921, the film is a reboot of his 1920 series and is scheduled to be released on January 12, 2018.
The trailer for 1921, which came out on Sunday, features many of the staples of the 1920 series – a couple (played by Karan Kundrra and Zareen Khan) fighting off malevolent spirits in a Victorian-era set-up. Expect characters walking into the dark with candles, praying in churches and getting possessed by evil spirits. The movie has been produced by Bhatt’s Lone Ranger Productions and Reliance Entertainment.
The first part of the series, titled 1920 (released in 2008) starred Rajneesh Duggal and Adah Sharma and was a sleeper hit. A second film, 1920: Evil Returns, came out in 2012, while 1920: London, was released in 2016. Starting with the 2002 movie Raaz, Bhatt has directed eight horror films so far, including 1921.
