While this religio-horror effort does contain some nice scares, and a memorably unnerving turn from Crowley, The Devil Inside's biggest shock arrives when it abruptly ends - just as it hits its stride. The result is a found-footage movie whose third act remains missing.
Even with The Exorcist in the world, there is still scope for a contemporary, shocking and thrilling film to be made on the subject of possession. But this is not it: some found footage should really just stay lost.
Don't know why all the negative reviews, this movie is scary and these type of things usually don't scare me cuz They are not Real, the best horror movie of the year, the doc portions seem real, not fake and stupid like paranomal 1 and 2 or blair witch, this is nothing like that, worth giving a shot, i say 8 out of ten but because people being ignorant, i say 10 out of 10
Up there with REC. I've seen quite a few exorcism movies. This is one of my favorites. I have no idea why it gets such a terrible review from critics while terrible movies like Dead Girl get a 65. That was trash.
The mother/daughter drama should have played a bigger part in this film as the 87-minute runtime passes quickly and leaves us feeling utterly short-changed.
It has been a long time since I've heard people - many people - distinctly yell, "Boo!" Usually they just growl or moan or hiss. They don't bother actually to articulate the word "Boo!" I second their statement. The ending reeks.
The Devil Inside joins a long, woozy-camera parade of found-footage scare pictures, among them "The Blair Witch Project," the "Paranormal Activity" films and certain wedding videos that won't go away.
The hilariously convoluted thriller contains all the elements for a wacky parody of exorcism movies, except a sense of humor about itself: The Devil Inside never acknowledges its innate ridiculousness, so the laughs are unintentional.
Best scary movie out there since Insidious! It does a good job of making you believe these characters are real and they are possessed by some kind of devil. The ending is good as well despite what others may have you believe. Packed with a ton of scary moments and makes you think that exorcism could actually be real, even though its not. Has more true scary moments(not false ones where a cat jumped down from a table or crap like that) than the woman in black, innkeepers, and paranormal 3 combined. Even the main girl in the movie is decent to look at
This Was A Decent Attempt At A Horror Flick..
It's Just Not What We Wanted, This Had Already Been Done.. The Script Is Really Bad But The Acting Makes Up.. I Was A Inch Away From Giving This Film A 5... This Is Not A 2/10... Be Nice.. And Comeon 18/100!
The Devil Inside was a pretty decent attempt at an exorcism mockumentary. It had the presentation of Paranormal Activity and the delivery of REC and The Last Exorcism. The editing / mixing of the sound and the timing seemed a bit off somehow, too. It wasn't nearly as scary as it could have been, though the movie is still very tense.
The Devil Inside is a mad hybrid of various different films, ranging from The Exorcist, to Blair Witch, to Paranormal Activity - with all the interest, terror and excitement of those films cast out like an unclean spirit. The film draws on so many other sources that it has trouble establishing its own identity.
Another film attempting to cash in on the recent handy-cam craze, it is a faux-documentary that follows a woman trying to discover what went wrong in her mother's exorcism 20 years prior, which resulted in the deaths of three people and a life-long spell for her mother in an insane asylum.
A fairly unoriginal, but decent enough premise. The film does actually make some interesting commentary on the bureaucracy of the Catholic Church, and contains one or two well-timed scares. But the film is let down by clichéd jump-out-of-your-seat moments that you can see coming from a mile away, like the unexplained orchestral booming noise that occurs whenever the camera looks at something scary, and a ridiculously abrupt ending that stops the film dead in its tracks.
If you're gonna go with the whole "found-footage" thing, you have to keep it discreet. It's dangerous to show too much, whereas the likes of Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity did mostly suggestion work. Hell, even Cloverfield didn't let you see too much of the monster. The Devil Inside just keeps throwing too much in your face, and it becomes predictable.
Seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What's the point in making a movie if your only focused on money and not film quality? It's so obvious that the people who made this didn't give a crap about how good it was or even tried to make it good. Money, money, money!!!!!! Is what the producers and writers were thinking. It could have been really good and scary but all it was, was dumb and gory. Sure it had like 2 creepy parts, but not near enough to keep you constantly excited. The absolute worst part was the climax, if you call that a climax.
