Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Excellent but underrated film
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
'Here Comes the Devil' is an excellent example of how to stretch your hard-earned dollars to make a small film that is entertaining. Thankfully, and gratefully, someone made a horror film without drunk teenagers in a remote cabin in the woods where cellphones don't work and the local gas station has Ted Bundy for a clerk.I've been enjoying the depth and quality of foreign horror for a long time. Somehow, they seem to get it right, from 'Interior' to 'Dogtooth' to 'Man Bites Dog'. The frat/sorority/high school clone movies you see these days have no story or tension. Hell, you can see more blood from a skinned knee than from some of these travesties. 'Here Comes the Devil' is not a masterpiece but it is time well spent.The basic story has been told many times before so there's no need to write a synopsis here. What is interesting, though, is the way the movie evolves. It's unpredictable and well-acted. It's very refreshing to see a horror movie that doesn't turn out to be a waste of time. Yes, 'Here Comes the Devil' is no 'Exorcist', but in this day and age, it'll do.
This is a very weird movie. Almost feels like exploitation. And while this is a hard sell, the way it is portrayed and played is really great. There are some holes in the plot and you might wonder about motives and actions of the main characters (especially the mother), but it all fits into the rhythm of the movie and the way it tells the story, no matter how out there it seems.The acting is really good and for a small budget movie this really knows how to set the mood. This is something that some other movies miss out on. If you can dig that, you will also dig the abyss this movie opens from time to time. Ending something like this, is always a fine line. And I think they did a really good job here with that too ...
I can honestly say I was really pumped for this movie after viewing the trailer. The trailer, however, makes it look like something it just isn't. Portrayed as a horror title about the devil, but merely comes of as a boring, stretched and far from scary flick. The pace of the movie was just very slow. It felt like I was waiting for some climax that eventually didn't even come. Sure, slow pace can be beneficial for a movie, but there has to be some sort of development, either in the story or characters which is believable. The character played by Laura Caro was so ridiculous in here decision making it was just laughable. She saw things, heard things and even experienced things but never even thought about confronting her kids with them or even talk about them with her husband. I actually never understood why the policeman was in this movie, trying to get information about the couple if they didn't even do anything whit him in the end. Slap on some random nudity and a few gory scenes and you've got this movie.At the end I didn't even care about anything happening to the main characters, they just felt really dull and so did the two children.I was expecting a horror movie, with an interesting story, a scary atmosphere or at least some kinds of scares. Sadly, I was really disappointed. Don't led the trailer or the hype mislead you, it's not worth one and a half hour of your time.
Honestly i don't understand how it's possible that this movie at the moment got so many good reviews and a general decent response. The screenplay is just dull and the characters makes stupid things for all the time. Really. What kind of parent would leave their children go alone for a walk in the creepiest spot in the world while doing a quick bang in a car parked? Or again what kind of parent would bring their children to see who was supposed to be their harasser just after a psychologist have told them that their children needed support because they are experiencing a traumatic event? The movie is full with this kind of nonsense plot things, completely unnecessary nude scenes (like the lesbian scene at the start of the movie), plain dialogs and the ZOOMS. There are lots of zooms and all of them are really really annoying. In conclusion "Here comes the devil" it's just a mess, avoid it if you want to see a good horror movie, but if you are looking for a comedy keep it in mind because like "Manos:hands of fate" it's so bad that eventually you can even found it funny.
