Watch The Boy from Hell For Free

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

So majority of this movie was meh, however Alexandra Kennedy was fabulous as Debbie. She was so pretty and bubblyandadorable andsweet. She really captured the essence of her character and did a great job displaying emotion. I rate this movie as a whole 5/10, might see again, but I rateAlexandra Kennedy 15/10, which is why my final opinion is....................... 10/10. Also the 80s costumes are authentic and I bet George Michael would be proud. The whole cast did a great job with their acting.

Teenager Daniel (a solid performance by Anthony Jenkins) gets sent away to a special home for disturbed kids by his mother in order to protect him from his demonic father Luther (played with frightening intensity by John Reno). However, Luther still finds Daniel and takes over Daniel's body with his powerful and malevolent spirit. Director Derwyn Warren, working from a compact script by Gerry Daly, relates the absorbing story at a snappy pace, grounds the fantastic premise in a plausible everyday reality, draws the characters with some depth, delivers a couple of cool murder set pieces (the gruesome wood chipper sequence rates as a definite gory highlight), and pulls out the thrilling stops for the exciting climax. The decent acting from the competent no-name cast helps matters a whole lot: Aarin Teich as the troubled, sensitive Charlie, Twink Caplan as sweet house mother Jenny, Alexandra Kennedy as the pretty, bubbly Debbie, Edward Dloughy as amiable guidance counselor Tony, and Kimble Jemison as hip black dude Georgie. Ronn Schmidt's sharp cinematography gives the picture a nifty misty'n'atmospheric look. Randy Miller's shivery score does the lively ooga-booga trick. A fun little fright flick.

I first saw this on cable (as Bloodspell) like 15 years ago as a kid. I enjoyed it. I saw it for the first time again since then last night and didn't really feel the same way. The only thing I remembered was the kid who got sucked into the wood chipper and the lady from Look Who's Talking was in it. Anyways, this is not really all that great. No special effects, absurd acting, and a dim-witted story. I guess it could be good for the bad horror movie buffs, but even I had a hard time sitting through it. Teens start dying at a center for troubled kids. The villain is the new kid who may or may not be possessed by his crazy father. Rather bloodless affair, with next to nothing to recommend it, unless if you were a fan of USA's Saturday Nightmares and your trying to see all those wacky movies again. One and a half stars.

One of the worst horror movies I've seen, this one hardly has any entertainment value whatsoever. To be avoided.Plot summary: boy dropped off at troubled teen center (I don't think it was a school), bad things start happening to the mean kids, lame showdown with happy ending.
