I will start this out by letting you all know that I have never written a 'review' for anything before, so I hope I don't disappoint you all too much. I'm sure I will get better.
'The Devil Inside'...Oh, where to begin? I was so excited to see this movie, so much that I went to see the midnight showing. With that being said, I had high hopes, but I already knew that it was going to be a huge disappointment! I was right.
In it's defense, it's not the worst movie in the world. It's not even painful to sit through to be honest. I was entertained the entire time, but like so many other movies that deal with the demonic/possession at some point you are going to compare it to 'The Exorcist' and it's going to ruin the whole movie for you. It's not really that scary, not really disturbing, and like most 'Blair Witch Project' spawns, the whole 'found footage' makes the movies rather annoying and predictable. I don't think there was much of the movie that I didn't predict 5 minutes before it happened. A lot of people walked out of the theater.
The biggest disappointment of all is the ending. You'll absolutely hate it!
On the plus side, some of the demonic activity and effects are cool and if you enjoy the subject, you won't be able to not enjoy the movie, even though it will most definitely not be your favorite.
Overall, it's worth seeing...when it is released to DVD and you can rent it...from 'Red Box'...because it's really only worth $1 per viewing. And it should only be viewed once because like I said, it isn't 'bad' but it isn't 'good' and there really isn't going to be anything that you miss. So definitely don't waste your money buying a movie ticket to see this film...it's not worth it. I don't regret going to the midnight showing, but I do kind of feel like an idiot now. This film was trying to be a hybrid of 'The Exorcist' and 'Paranormal Activity'...and it fails.
P/S- Note to self: When writing a review, it is a good idea to make sure you get the title correct! lol... Sorry guys... 'The Devil INSIDE'
