The makers of this film are under wrong impression that good sound techniques can surprise the audience. The visual horror is missing in this tolerable film '12 AM Madhyarathri'.

Kashinath veteran supervising production, direction, and post production has failed to give a brief film. The length is the main villain of this film.

Karthik in his debut has made an engaging screenplay but it is too stretched in the second half. Half an hour trimming would make this a better film.

Revenge is the main focus. Shalini murdered at 12 AM by a politician son instead of taking revenge as ghost on main culprit barges on four friends who did not help her at that situation. The four friends of Shalini later fall in the trap out of fear.

The director unveils all these developments later on in the film but in the beginning he shows Shalini (Divya Sridhar) and Trishul (Abhimanyu) roaming all around for six months. The intimate lovers life falls like an ash at the end when the Mantrik uses all his force.

The surprise for the audience is Trishul and Shalini together for some time. When the truth is revealed Trishul is not able to believe as he suffers from paralyze schizophrenia. When Trishul comes back to normalcy, ghost of Shalini decide to take revenge one by one. The four friends and Trishul run for Mantrik support in Kerala. How Shalini power is demolished is rest of the film.

Divya Sridhar strikes well; Abhimanyu has done a good job. Kashinath role deserves editing, Shastri role is interesting.

The main hero of the film is the screenplay and technical values - especially sound effects from Rajesh Ramanathan. Umapathi cinematography is also in top gear.

This is a passable film. You have some chilling moments.

Score - 6/10
