Interesting facts

Demonte Colony is a 2015 Indian Tamil-language supernatural horror thriller film written and directed by R. Ajay Gnanamuthu in his directorial debut. Produced by Mohana Movies, and distributed by Sri Thenandal Films, it is the first installment in the Demonte Colony film series. The film stars Arulnithi, Ramesh Thilak, Sananth, Abishek Joseph George and Antti Jääskeläinen. It revolves around four friends who visit a haunted mansion, and the consequences they face after coming out of it.

Production

Demonte Colony is the directorial debut of R. Ajay Gnanamuthu. It was named after, and set in, a locality by the same name in Chennai. Arulnithi was cast as the lead actor after Ajay was impressed with his performance in Mouna Guru (2011). The director was introduced to Finnish actor Antti Jääskeläinen through a casting agency, and finalised him as the antagonist due to his "villainous face" and "sinisterly look".

Filming began in November 2014, and ended by March 2015. The film takes place prominently in an apartment in the slums of Pattinapakkam, Chennai, as Ajay wanted to avoid the clichéd trope of horror films being set in places like East Coast Road. Due to the difficulties of shooting in an apartment room, a set was created.
