there ' s a great mixture of a handful of genres throughout this film and the blending of all of these elements mix quite flawlessly . with the portrait of jennie , we are given a love story that melds traditional elements of mystery , horror , fantasy , and drama , and then creates something entirely unlike any of those separate genres . one could say that portrait of jennie is in a genre of its own , because when you analyze each segment of the categories that i mentioned above , you can ' t pinpoint a single one within the story . each combines so delicately into the fabric of the narrative , that they begin to play off each other , morphing into a melting pot of ideas . the end result is something that defies logic , making it impossible to pin down . the ambiguity of it all is really what is most appealing about the film . it creates such a believable world out of such unbelievable material , that it boggles the mind when trying to rope in the individual elements of this complicated recipe of a film . portrait of jennie is definitely a unique beast .

portrait of jennie , much like its heroine , is way ahead of its time . fortunately for the films sake , it was appreciated in its own time and at the same time is still a relevant piece of work that can be loved for generations to come . the film has so much substance to it , that you can feel the weight of all it has to say within its expressive and fleeting moments . portrait of jennie only exists over a span of a few moments in reality , but through the same unconventional and otherworldly connection that occurred between its main characters , this amazing story will last within the minds of its audience for a lifetime and dare i say an eternity . this film is highly recommended for anyone who loves the power of cinema and the wonderful stories that it can bring into our lives .

“everything goes . / the wind blows , / the sea flows - - / and nobody knows .

while working on this article , i glanced at several other reviews of the film just to get an idea of what other people think of it . one review in particular caught my eye . it was an article written by ed gonzalez written for slant magazine , the link to which i have provided below . gonzalez argues that portrait of jennie is a metaphor for the creative process . he states that the film details eben as an artist coming to terms with his dependency on his muse . gonzalez writes :
a suitably earnest joseph cotten stars in this supernatural love story as eben adams , whose attempts to sell his landscape paintings are largely unsuccessful . but adams ' first portrait , of the bewitching jennie appleton ( jennifer jones ) , whom he first encounters in the park , immediately sells to gallery owner miss spinney ( ethel barrymore ) . miss spinney takes the young painter under her wing and proves just as intrigued by adams ' tales of the phantom - like jennie , who comes and goes at will , as she is by adams ' stunning portraits of the sad - eyed girl .

lonely and magical , portrait of jennie is often cited as a romantic fantasy masterpiece . thanks to a classic film starring joseph cotten and jennifer jones , it is the one book title by this sadly almost forgotten author which is vaguely familiar to modern readers . perhaps because there is something pure and lovely in his gentle tales , his oeuvre is incompatible with the crass harshness of modern life , and much of modern literature . that makes them no less wonderful , however , and for some readers ,

sah , übt diese sonderbare geschichte noch immer die gleiche faszination auf mich aus . allerdings macht mir dieser umstand es auch schwer , die literarische vorlage angemessen zu beurteilen . das mysteriöse auftauchen und verschwinden sowie das schnelle altern jennys sind mir bekannt , ebenso wie das finale , auch wenn es hierbei auffallende unterschiede zwischen buch und film gibt . dennoch übt die melanch
i n the last days of shooting extra scenes for portrait of jennie , in central park , the very last scene was in the sheep meadow ; fifteen sheep were hired from a hicksville farm . director william dieterle also contracted for a sheep dog , the scene cost selznick $ 800 . 00 in overtime , resulting from a sheep stampede through central park , pursuing the sheep dog . the dog’s owner apologized for the animal’s behavior saying “the dog was frightened . he’s never seen sheep before . ” [ 70 ]
this unbridled notion that if you capture an audience and make them believe that what they are seeing is something that they are truly experiencing , is a feat that isn ' t easily achieved , but one that dieterle has managed to master within the context of portrait of jennie . so confident is he , that he throws such a mind - blowing visual curve ball our way , as in the example of colorizing the finale , that you really have to admire the boldness of the effort . taking such strikingly abrasive techniques and inspiring visual cues to strengthen the overall feel of this epic story shows just how confident dieterle was on the overall pull that he had garnered over the course of the film ' s run time . a truly inspiring move for a truly inspiring film .
jennie is a devine fantasy / romance . selznick always placed that quality stamp on his work , and jennifer will forever be remembered as “jennie appleton” , with joe cotten sweet , gentle and passionate as “eben” , the starving artist . joy ! joy ! joy ! and hope , anytime you see it . . ; )
. what director william dieterle managed to do was create a film that was simultaneously a powerful love story and a supernatural…thriller ? no , thriller isn’t the right word . it’s more like a supernatural curiosity , like a more subdued episode of the twilight zone . there is something unnatural and unusual going on in portrait of jennie . and yet , the fantastical elements of the picture do not insist upon themselves . the story is about eben and his quest to capture his muse who may or may not be a figment of his imagination . after all , only he can see her . he learns that the historical jennie died years ago in a tragic boating accident . she couldn’t possibly really be there . and yet , such impossibilities are irrelevant . she is real to eben , the man who needs her most in the world .
no . i’m going to stop there . i refuse to spoil it for you . yes , there is a traditional hollywood rescue scene where eben desperately tries to save his beloved . but i’m not going to tell you what happens . all i will say is that while the set - up seems to be copy and pasted from a hundred other sappy love stories , the payoff is shockingly unique . all leads to a scene set in the present day where a group of schoolchildren attend a museum exhibit of eben’s work . the centerpiece is completed portrait of jennie . in a final sweep , the film briefly explodes into technicolor glory , showing that in the end eben was finally able to create a piece of art that transcended the natural world of the film to take on a life of its own .

as the weather clears , the movie is now tinted a pleasant salmon pink ( or something like that ) , and we see the lighthouse has withstood the storm . we find eben in bed recovering , still in new england , with miss spinney visiting him . whether or not she believed in jennie before , she might now . she is holding the scarf that was found on the beach , the scarf that jennie had received from eben , the scarf that she had left on the bench when she was a little girl . eben has it again , just as he has jennie , for eternity . which started a little earlier for jennie than it did for him , obviously…
jennie finds the scarf , the one that eben had since their first meeting in the park , many of her years ago . it disturbs her — is it part of the things that are going to happen , as she said before ? — and when eben turns back to her , she has vanished .
the story of the famous battle between the scots clans of macdonald and campbell , and the young woman who comes between them , annie laurie .
it ' s let down by a lack of explanation , but it ' s a sweet book that i bet inspired a lot of people .
this all - star courtroom thriller is also an underrated study of a master artist’s social demons , embodying the very essence of the auteur theory .
they go to his studio where he works on the portrait , and it is now clear that they are in love — she’s finally old enough for him to kiss , at least ! — and now that she’s here he can finish her portrait . she sits for him . she is tired and muses as he paints . “you know how you feel sad about things that haven’t even happened . perhaps they’re things that are going to happen . perhaps we know it , and are just afraid to admit it to ourselves . ” she falls silent and eben looks at her . is she dead ? asleep ? just asleep , it turns out . jennie is thrilled with the portrait , but also melancholy , getting those bad feelings again when she looks at eben’s lighthouse pictures . eben rhapsodizes about their love : “jennie , what is it that makes a man and a woman know that of all the other men and women in the world , they belong to each other ? and is it just chance — their being alive in the world at the same time ? …were there others , in other times of the world , whom we would have loved and who would have loved us ? ” not according to jennie . “no…no others . among all the people who have lived from world’s end to world’s end , there’s just one you must love — one you must seek until you find him . ” so that’s what the movie’s about .
cast : jennifer jones ( as jennie appleton ) , joseph cotten , ethel barrymore , cecil kellaway , lillian gish , david wayne , florence bates , henry hull , albert sharpe .
we don‘t know live painter - jennie lou art ‘s story by heart , but we can assure you it‘s pretty awesome . message them to get to know more about their business .
sidenote : i am waiting for the dvd release of the picture of dorian gray and hope that a morlock will chime in on that one soon .
very good write up for this hidden gem of classic film . i stumbled upon portrait on tcm a little while ago while channel surfing . osborne mentioned a ghost and , being a horror junkie , i couldn’t resist . well after watching it i wouldn’t quite put it in the horror genre , but i would emphatically recommend it to anyone and everyone . this is one of the finest ghost stories you’ll find .
eben adams is an artist who can ' t seem to sell a painting . miss spinney buys a painting but tells him that he ' ll never be a great artist unless he finds something to inspire him . after he leaves , he runs into a little girl , jennie appleton . she ' s wearing old fashioned clothes and talking about things that happened long ago . eben does a sketch of her , which he sells to miss spinney . she tells him that he ' s found his inspiration . he runs into jennie a few weeks later and she ' s aged three years . each time he meets her , she ' s years older . eben begins painting her portrait . in the meantime , he has fallen in love with her . but , he knows there is something strange about jennie . why does she age so quickly ? he sets out to find answers .
eben tells his friends , art dealer , and gallery owner ( played by ethel barrymore ) about jennie ; she has become his inspiration . he looks for her in the park for several days . when he sees jennie again , she has grown a bit older ! how can that be ? eben asks to meet her parents , so he can get permission to paint her . jennie says that her parents died in a high - wire accident . she doesn’t give her address . eben does some research to find out more about this mysterious girl .
inspired by his second encounter , eben is swept into a whirlwind of inspiration . soon , his work affords him new clothes , hearty meals , and a new sense of accomplishment . and yet , like the late autumn , early winter sky , he feels empty . to him , jennie is more than a muse , she is life itself . he goes to the park trying in vain to find jennie . nobody seems to have seen her . in fact , nobody seems to have remembered seeing her at all .

he wanted to highlight the plight of the tiger , which is seriously threatened by poaching and loss of habitat , through a documentary . the idea for kaal was born from that . the director , who has also written the script for kaal , spoke to news editor ( entertainment ) syed firdaus ashraf about the film and how he managed to get karan johar ' s dharma productions used to the sight of blood . excerpts :
kaal said that , during the transition , there may be a two - day period in which over - the - air viewers experience further signal loss . some western - area viewers may experience complete signal loss .

wildlife , anyone ? you got it ! the best thing that debutante director soham shah has done is to take his ingenious plot into the great wild outdoors . unlike ram gopal varma ' s jungle which used bizarre camera movements to stress the predatory mood in the wilderness , kaal lets you into the secrets of the jungle without getting technically complicated .
the kaal - hotel is located close to the airport and the main market and yet not walking distance . its a largish hotel for the size of leh tourist accommodation available . its a 3 star equivalent . expectations in leh need to be moderated as its tough to reach , stay & breath . all most everything is bought from outside the city . . . .
vivek says he had fun shooting the film with soham , who he has known for over 15 years .
he ( soham ) stays in juhu , near my place . we are like family . he has made kaal with conviction . it is not a preachy and a boring pro - conservation film . it talks seriously on the need to preserve wild life but at the same time , it will entertain you .
i can only say that all of us have given our 100 percent to the film . ultimately , it is the audiences who decide . they can either like or reject it . i am banking on the fact that people in our country have not seen this kind of a film . it is a clean , entertaining family film and everyone can enjoy it . i don ' t want to say that kaal is a different kind of a film because everyone says the same thing . i will let people decide whether this is different or not . this film is a two hour thriller - adventure . i want to give the audience the feeling that they have spent two hours in the jungle .
눉 it ' s life threatening to stay at the kaal . i am 58 years and suffered due to poor emergency service at hotel . no one manages reception at night . network doesn ' t work . manager , stanzin sonam physical assaulted me , injured me , used abusive language and threatened my life as his credit card machine was not working and insisted for all cash payment . i gave all cash i had which was upto 50 % , all atm at leh were down . was running from bank to bank with little time for my flight . one bank manager helped me to get some cash to get out of leh . never stay with such hotel and urltoken should disengage with such hotels and do some proper due deligence before . it ' s life threatening .
two british nationals are killed by a ferocious tiger in orbit park , india . this incident follows several other incidents , and many deaths result , prompting a national geographic correspondent , krish thapar , and his sexy photographer , riya , to take a trip to this park and ascertain what really happened . a group of youngsters , consisting of dev malhotra , ishika , bagga , and vishal , on a thrill and hunting trip also arrive there in the hopes of sighting and shooting some big prey . both thapar and malhotra groups meet with each other , and seek the guidance of a local called kaali . what these folks do not know that they are the ones who have been singled out to be the prey - and soon they will find out that there is no escape from kaal ( death ) - as it hunts them down one by one .
pride is what caused kaal . i could somehow feel karan johar in each and every shot , and the forced acting , the worst use of the wide angle , funny jungle sounds you could buy on a cheap cd , and of course , shah rukh khan and mallaika . for a moment it seemed more like a pepsi commercial , and a badly directed one at that . strangers meet in jungle , hacked one by one , until they come upon the big secret , something that you ' ll guess anyway within the first fifteen minutes of the movie . the only person it might fool is someone sleeping through the movie . the director must have really begged to get this chance , and karan johar must have been desperately bored . some claim this film is a hit . of course it will be . that ' s why shah rukh appears at the beginning , to tell us :
it ' s all right ! this kind of crap is endorsed by me , see ?
the movie is an insult to the paying - public . of course , only a karan johar can get away with such blatant disrespect , with his already immoral films setting the trends for today ' s youngsters . while aditya chopra strives for morals , karan johar exploits the lack of it . true , he does vibe well with the public . but for how long ?
awesome acting by ranbir and soonam as well . no doubt paresh rawal did his excellent role . . worth…

soham shah ajay devgan , vivek oberoi , john abraham , lara dutta , esha deol , vishal singh , kushal punjabi .
there ' s a directness to the deft and dark terror treatise , as oberoi and dutta , abraham and deol , plus a couple of other wacky friends ( kushal punjabi and vishal singh ) and two scowling chauffeurs , maneuver their cars and karma into quaky kingdom .
the ambience is electric . thanks in no small measure to the incredibly accomplished sound design ( dwarak warrier ) , the terror is stressed from within the plot . the film has the bare minimum of window dressing . the adrenaline is kept going completely from within , and that ' s the narrative ' s biggest asset .
the eco - friendly horror film starts with an ecologist ( john abraham ) expressing concern over the growing extinction of tigers . at this inceptive point in the narration , you wonder how the writer - director intends to hold up such a profound note of introduction in the rest of the narrative .
to our relief soham never falls into the trap of creating superfluous scares . the entry of devgan ' s character mid - way signals a unique journey into the supernatural , not just for the characters but also for the audience .
yup , we ' ve never seen anything like this before that ' s for sure . the last half - hour of the plot is sheer heart - in - the - mouth stuff . generating heat and horror through expressions of disdainful cynicism that melt into a reluctant belief in the supernatural , the film leaves us with the most positive mixed - feelings created by a film in recent times .
the performances , though not outstanding seem to fall into place in the larger scream of things . while the girls lara and esha are suitably skimpy in attire and startled in demeanour the men get the stunning sur of the story just right .
partly because of the nature of his part and partly because he plays his character with an appealing languor , devgan heads the list of acting honours . vivek oberoi plays his volatile character with a furious flair for bridled fear . john abraham represents a presence . in the way his hair falls on face and his face falls into place abraham denotes a quaint state of grace in the environment of dizzying fear .
the rest of the cast gets to do little except grow increasingly wary of those invisible forces that seem to stalk the ominous jungle . actor vishal singh ' s death on the wobbling wooden bridge is filmed with gory grace . it shows the director ' s strong hold over the complicated issue of suspenseful storytelling .
there ' re no superfluous moments , no song breaks and no diverting brakes in this full - on horror film . the animals of the wildlife sanctuary lend a powerful backdrop to the bristling plot .
here ' s another film this year that lifts spirits , in more ways than one .

e were staying in manu maharani resorts in jim corbett . every evening , we would have bonfires by the river near the resort . the entire cast and crew would be together . we would barbecue , and wrap blankets around us because it was very cold . we would play music and tell stories .
, which was right in the heart of the jungle . and ajay would come out with his ghost stories .
i would be up at 4am everyday , and be on location at 6am . the day was very hectic . we would pack up by 5pm .
shooting with my leg in a cast because of a torn muscle . i had recovered during the 45 days that we were there , but for the climax we were all hoping that it would hold !
it was really brutal for me . i was popping four - five painkillers from the first day just to get through the day . i was in a lot of pain in those days . i would remove the cast for the shot , and then put it back .
once we shot on this river , and the bridge collapsed so we dived into the freezing water . it ' s himalayan water , so it ' s very cold .
. he was hailed as one of the most promising actors , given the fact that he held his own against the brilliant ajay devgan .
vivek ' s other film , saathiya , also clicked at the box - office , where he shone next to rani mukerji in the shaad ali movie .
but that seemed to be the end of vivek ' s winning streak , unless you count the multi - starrer mild hit , masti . his duds , including kyun . . . ! ho gaya na and kisna , kept increasing at the box - office .
ask him what went wrong with his recent films and he points out quickly ,
all this is part of game . hits and flops will always be there for any actor . masti did so well . it was unexpected and clicked very well with masses . i believe in one principle : do your work and leave the rest to god .
. the film also stars ajay devgan , john abraham , lara dutta and esha deol .
when the film was offered to me , i wanted to do ajay ' s role ,
he explains .
but karan and others advised me not to insist on the role as it was not the right time for me to do such a role . i agreed . but then , i had a date problem , and i could not do it . luckily , everyone adjusted the dates and finally , i could do the film . soham has created an interesting twist to my character .
is jointly produced by karan johar and shah rukh khan . srk also does an item number with malaika arora khan in the movie .
the other star attractions in the film are the tigers , who earlier featured in the hollywood film , gladiator , starring russell crowe .
i took their paw prints as autograph ,
vivek laughs .
the three tigers were not tied ( up ) when they were acting with us . i just had to rely on the fact that the tigers were trained and would not harm us . once a tiger got lost in the elephant grass , and we didn ' t know from where it would emerge ! thank god everything went well .
recently , tamil nadu chief minister j jayalalithaa said vivek did not help tsunami victims as he had promised , and that it was just a publicity stunt .
vivek shrugs it off .
i have worked sincerely for the people who were affected by tsunami . as i said , you help the people who need help and leave the rest to god . god is looking into these things .
did he feel unlucky that whenever he tries to do good things , they backfire ?
i don ' t know whether it is bad luck . all i can say is i am lucky i have never had any misunderstandings with my co - stars . when people say that i work for publicity , i ask myself a question : did i do it because of publicity ? the answer that comes from my heart is ' no ' . i helped because i genuinely wanted to help . if others say good or bad things , it does not matter . i know what i am doing .
about his tsunami relief plans , he says ,
as long as 150 orphans get homes , i will be happy . i am building a home for these orphans at pattinicherry and i intend to go there after the work is completed . it was only last week that three boats left for devanamapattinam and i am keeping a track of the work that is going on .

in orbit park , india ; two british nationals are killed by a fierce man - eating tiger , followed by a few other incidents , all related to the death of human - beings . two months later , national geographic researcher , krish thapar and his photographer wife , riya , decides to take a trip to the park to investigate on these incidents . on their way ; they are introduced to five other hunters , dev malhotra , his girlfriend , ishika , vishal , sajid and bagga . the two groups join each other and are soon guided by kaali pratap singh ; little realizing that kaali is a wrecked soul determined to take them down one after the other .

go they are doing a pretty fair job of stepping up . growing up in central minnesota with coverage that wasn ' t live and certainly wasn ' t daily having three stations competing certainly makes for better quality . . .
we are very happy with the coverage you give . the staff seems to have fun together too . keep up the great work ! !
news cast at 6 : 30 . thats a plus . the only downside is they do not have a 9pm news cast on this tv , thats something that would be nice to think about adding .
i think it is horrible how cold and rude cindy morgan is . i would watch her on the morning show be very unprofessi
ut down haley . haley scored 30 on them tonight . we did lose , but our girls played hard and pushed through tonight . we
and one junior . i ' m very proud of our girls . i thought the coverage was very one sided .
omote her . she is also beautiful on tv . but , i am back with channel 6 , because they gave us a chance to reach out to the community and try to help .
what happened to that cute little girl in the ad for the morning news ? it was fun to see her shrug her shoulders .
i enjoyed watching her . put her shrugging her shoulders back in there . i miss her .
abc 6 news is the best employer i ' ve had in my career . i ' m so grateful to work for a company that instills integrity and innovation
f my family and having balance . abc 6 news is truly dedicated to serving this community and i ' m proud to be a part of the impact it makes every day .

many foreign tourist are killed in corbett national park in india which is to be believed the work of man eating tiger . national geographic sends their correspondent krish thapar to the park for their inquiries he is accompanied by his wife riya . youngsters dev , ishika , sajid and vishal have planned a hunting trip in the jungle . both the groups meet in the jungle and decide to travel the jungle safari . once they are trapped by tigers and have no way to escape . a local kali pratap singh arrives and saves them . but the trip becomes more and more haunting when one by one is getting killed .
it looks like we don ' t have a synopsis for this title yet . be the first to contribute ! just click the
edit page
button at the bottom of the page or learn more in the synopsis submission guide .
it had , one must admit , an interesting plot , breathtaking locales , slick sound - - which startles you even if you were laughing a second ago - - as - good - as - hollywood camera work and star power , with shah rukh and malaika arora khan in a pretty peppy ' item ' number that plays during the opening credits .
but all of that falls through , because of humongous holes in the script , corny dialogues and typical overdone bollywood drama .
krish ( john abraham ) is a tiger expert . the kind that runs after anaconda - esque snakes and gives them bear hugs , not letting go of the jhappi when national geographic calls to tell him to go to orbit national park ( yes , that ' s what they ' ve named the jim corbett national park ) where a man - eating tiger has killed a foreign expert . adjusting a part of the snake around his arm , he hangs up to tell his wife riya ( esha deol ) , ' holiday over . '
dev ( vivek oberoi ) is a yuppie who loves all things gizmo . he revs his suv on a holiday with his girlfriend ishika ( lara dutta ) and two friends sajid and vishal ( kushal punjabi and vishal malhotra ) , says ' cut the crap ' at every near - death experience and ignores his mini - skirted girlfriend ' s advice that running over a black cat on a friday is ' ashubh . '
dev ' s lexus goes kaput and he hires an ominous looking driver and his jeep to continue the joyride . the spooky driver spots sajid ' s revolver ( which he keeps caressing the way krish caresses anacondas ) and asks them if they want to go to orbit , which is big game country .
the two orbit - bound teams meet in the middle of tiger country when krish ' s hired car goes kaput and dev ' s drunk driver rams into it .
all the while , ominous sounds and camera angles convince you , as sherlock holmes would have put it , that ' the game is afoot . '
soon , it becomes clear why . a growl and krish ' s erstwhile driver vanishes . the same night , the guide - - who has been waxing eloquent about his jungle skills - - is dragged away into the jungle , to be discovered later without his head .
meanwhile , dev , krish and party move around in the ' core area ' of the tiger infested jungle , stopping where they want to , or where their car wants to , armed with a revolver that would do some serious damage to a fly , were it to sit on a tiger ' s back .
they meet a stick wielding , mysterious figure kaali pratap ( ajay devgan ) . mysterious because there ' s shloka chanting in the background every time he appears ( could only make out the word pushtivardhana , which to my limited knowledge has something to do with nutrition ) and he saves the tourists from three tigers . obey the rules of the jungle or the jungle will kill you , is kaali ' s advice to the tourists .
run , run , while you can , the forest officer tells the now scared group . but routes out of the jungle are closed because of landslides , and only kaali can show them the way out .
that you have to write so much to explain the plot and not give away the twist ( yes , there is one ) itself is a tribute to soham , the debutant director whose brainchild the film is .
shots and sounds inevitably remind you of bhoot and vaastu shastra , which , to my mind , were better .
and you wonder why the ' orbiters ' go about doing things that scream ' aa tiger mujhey mar ' - - as a scribe did , very aptly in the middle of a scary sequence .
you might differ , and want to watch a mindless horror movie which , actually , has very little to do with tigers .
sub : good story but poor effort . this movie would have been much better if . . . 1 . someone else who is more skilled had directed it . ( ram gopal verma ) . director was really . . . posted by beautiful _ mind

also , he has a * very * specific job title at national geographic .
for some reason the * tiger expert * has a large collection of snakes . maybe , because you can ' t roll on the floor with a tiger and make women drool .
then we meet this hip ' dalhi ' group which includes vivek anand oberoi , lara dutta , kushal punjabi and vishal malhotra .
vivek anand ' s response to everything is ' cut the crap ' . something everyone has been saying for his acting career lately .
disney boy vishal malhotra is apparently supposed to play the ' funny guy ' of the group .
they meet a character called bagga , who promises to show them a ' good time ' in a nearby national park .
complying with its ' dalhi ' roots , the film also has a road rage scene . in the middle of the fucking jungle .
any way , this ensures all the bollywood buddies finally meet . and they make their way to the guest house . where they meet tour - guide , pandey .
the next morning they find him dead . beheaded . the police tell the actors to gtfo of the jungle .
but ' dalhi boy ' being ' dalhi boy ' , one of them goes into a core area .
meanwhile his gang comes looking for him . and are greeted by kali , a local who ( for some reason ) has highlights in his hair .
they ' re all asked to leave immediately , but being the good - hearted idiots they are , they stay back longer to mourn their friend ' s death .
it ends in a deadlock , and * finally * they decide to run for their lives . there ' s a landslide , which means they can no longer take the usual way out . that ' s when kali appears again .
while trying to drive on a rickety bridge , disney boy loses his shit .
and obviously fucks it up with his stupidity . not before dying in a pure final destination fashion .
with only the a - list actors remaining , they resume on foot . and when they reach an abandoned house , kali ' s only instruction to them is - don ' t go near the well .
she dies , obviously . but that ' s when a major plot reveal happens . kali ' s reflection isn ' t visible in the well .
dayummmm ! he ' s an aatma ! he ' s the one bumping peeps left , right and centre .
