"Every time a creator dares to explore a new space, especially if it’s in this
risky railroad of a genre called ‘horror’, you wish for it to be novel enough to forgive its shortcomings. But The Village, billed as India’s first live-action adaptation of a graphic novel, is an unforgivably banal, corny and utterly contrived attempt that at times comes off as a mock-up of the done-to-dust horror tropes."
"Firstly, throughout its six-episode run, The Village punishes you with mind-numbingly campy dialogues. Let slip even the exposition dumps and how unoriginal they are, the dialogues are somehow stretched beyond effect and at times repeated. A petrified man lights up a cigarette only to be politely told that it might attract unnecessary attention. Only to be followed by, “Also, smoking is injurious to health.” We didn’t know! Interactions between stone-cold mercenaries and panic-stricken scientists are decent spaces to introduce some levity but the jokes you get here make you wish for some skeleton in Kattiyal to wake up and object to such blasphemous attempts at humour."

As a sci-fi horror series, 'The Village' is a nice attempt and works well in
some areas also. A good start and end. But in the middle of the series, it tested my patience.

Milind Rau's THE VILLAGE:
It's definitely a underrated series in recent times,
because the series took you in the village and make swear if you watch it after night 9'0clock.
