For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Absolutely Fantastic
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
It's been awhile since I've seen this, but it was a real psychological thriller. The kind that makes one stop & consider what this movie was really trying to get across to the audience. While it's not the best of horror movies, it's certainly far from the worst. It stayed with me, often playing through my mind even a few weeks later. If you like horror movies that concentrate more on messing with your mind than cheap jump-out-at-you type scares & gore, I think you'll enjoy this one!
I didn't have high expectations going in, but was pleasantly surprised Movie had an excellent cast of both big and small name talent.Movie had a familiar theme but awesome twist on the classic horror plot.The ending was not very predictable, and although it was strange, it was well executed.The scenes were pretty gory at points but this is a must for any cheesy horror flick.Although it is not heart stopping amazing, it has replay value, it has character, it has an excellent atmosphere about it, and it should be a staple for any good b-budget flick evening.
Devour feels like several movies have been thrown into a blender by writers Adam and Seth Gross, and then wolfed down by director David Winkler, only partially digested, and finally excreted onto the screen; some of the original ingredients are still identifiable, but on the whole, it's just one big stinky mess.Part The Omen, part Brainscan, Part FeardotCom, and part Rosemary's Baby, the Gross's screenplay sees high school student Jake Gray (Jensen Ackles) experiencing hellish waking nightmares after his pals Conrad (Teach Grant) and Dakota (the perfectly toned Dominique Swain) sign him up for an online game called 'The Pathway'. To cut a long and very confusing story short, the game is controlled by the devil herself (yes, she's a woman, just as I suspected), who is searching the world for her missing son.No prizes for guessing who turns out to be the spawn of Satan...Decent acting from its young (but perhaps not young enough) cast, the odd gruesome moment, and a gratuitous sex scene between Ackles and a fully clothed Swain (what, no nudity?) cannot help Devour from being a disappointment; and with a final comment from Jake which suggests that the whole devil thing might have been a figment of his twisted imagination, it's hard to see this film garnering praise from anyone other than fans of its lead actor.
OK i watched this movie with my boyfriend and we enjoyed it enormously. The special effects on the demon on the end weren't great but it still got the job done and you got the general idea that it was meant to be a evil creature, so that was good. One main thing i can say about the movie is when Jensen Ackles was reading through the script one thing that passed his mind could of been "Man, I'm going to get laid!" I think the whole storyline was confusing and especially the quote at the end from Jake "...Our child.." it had me confused. I think the actors and actresses did a great job on their characters, and Jensen Ackles shows a lot of promise. We noticed that in a few scenes he wears his brown leather jacket he wore in Supernatural and also Jake's uncles house is the place in Dead In The Water Episode 3. I really enjoyed this movie and walked away from it thinking "Dude, Jensen is hot!"
