The plot is a simple yet effective premise: a young girl stuck at home with her mother begins to experience a terrifying possession. With the world in lockdown, the mother must rely on a priest from a different city, connecting with him through a video call to perform an exorcism. This single-screen format is the movie’s biggest gamble, and for the most part, it pays off.
Director Ashwin Saravanan skillfully uses the limitations to his advantage, building suspense through claustrophobic shots and cleverly timed jump scares that mostly rely on sound rather than visuals.
What truly works for the film is the atmosphere. The aural design is a standout, with every creak, whisper, and bang contributing to the eerie tension. The cinematography effectively captures the feeling of isolation and dread. Nayanthara delivers a convincing performance as the panicked and desperate mother, carrying the weight of the film on her shoulders. Anupam Kher’s role, though brief, adds a necessary layer of gravitas to the story.
However, the film’s biggest challenge lies in its third act. The innovative "screen-only" gimmick starts to wear thin, and the climax feels a bit rushed and generic, borrowing too heavily from classic horror tropes. Some might find the initial pace a little slow as it focuses more on building mood than on action.Overall, "Connect" is a commendable attempt at a fresh take on the horror genre. It’s a compelling, one-time watch that successfully delivers on its promise of suspense. It may not haunt you long after the credits roll, but it’s a solid effort that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
