評価とレビュー

I came here to try to BUY this film, not to rent it. Sadly, I'll have to look elsewhere. It's a film that will stick in your soul for months after watching it. You're literally transported to a visually accurate 1987 and back - and forward - and back. Twists, turns, both teased and anticipated, then shocked again with no apologies. In my top horror films are The Ring, Silence of The Lambs, Dumplings, the original VHS, Let The Right One In and the original Jeepers Creepers. This is in that top list now. This is from the writer of The Pact which is also a definite must see.

My wife loves horror films. I'm not such a fan, but this particular film didn't make her jump even once, and only made me jump a little bit. Let me reinforce the fact that I am quite easy to scare when it comes to horror films. The story could have been interesting, but all credibility is lost in the ending. At best, this movie has a creepy ambiance, but it in no way worth the $10 rental fee. Disappointing and pointless. That's all this movie is. Don't waste your money.

Nicholas McCarthy is officially a genre staple. When I first watched The Pact a couple of years ago - I remember thinking that I hadn't felt that sort of suspense in a horror film in quite some time. McCarthy has returned with At the Devils Door, and that spirit of suspense is in tact. Possession movies are a dime a dozen these days, and never have been my favorite sub genre to begin with. Even the trailer had me strongly considering passing this one up.However, strong writing, acting, and camera work make this one a favorite of recent (even not so recent) memory. Do yourself a favor and check this one out.... then go back and watch The Pact as well in case you haven't.
