Libéranos

The start of the film was glorious, totally intrigued by the lore, but I was frustrated by the lack of attempts to expand on it, which could have helped other story elements be better. It kinda felt like whoever wrote the start to the film was kind of absent afterwards. After a creepy and compelling beginning I was bored and disappointed that this was just another poor attempt at an end of days/antichrist film. It's pretty to watch and at times really has a good grip on catering to a dark and isolated haunting atmosphere. I'm just sorry it wasn't better at scaring me or keeping me interested.

And for anyone who plays Dead by Daylight, keep an ear out for the Huntress's lullaby!

The film looked like it had a good premise, religious/horror feel to it but overall it was too slow, story all over the place and poorly executed. There was no scares in the film, no twists or turns to make it interesting or pull you in. Just a very basic religious film about God & the devil and the fight against good/bad.

This film should have been so much better and kind of feels lost in they wasn't sure what to do here. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, there is just no real importance, action, scare, acting etc for anyone to get anything from this film. Real let down and a waste of 2 hours.

This written by a pair Kunz, and it shows. Lee and Kane Kunz to be precise.

This was right up my street, I thought. Immaculate conceptions, warrior priests and nuns on the run, what's not to like? Well, apparently, quite a lot.

This movie doesn't know what it wants to be. An arthouse drama, action thriller, horror?

There is a little too much messing around in a church then giving birth on a train (because yeah, that happens) with no blood, afterbirth, washing or cord cutting. Then a forest.

The dreams were good and quite spooky in parts, the acting adequate, the cinematography good but with poor direction.

I don't know what happened here. The first twenty minutes of this movie had me asking myself how I'd never heard of it, much less how it was not receiving an absurd amount of praise in the horror movie community. It was awesome.

And then the rest of the movie happened. The middle was so boring, and almost as if it was written by a totally different person. The ending livened things up a bit but not nearly enough to rekindle the atmosphere and engrossing nature of the beginning.

I give it a 5 because it wasn't awful. I'll probably never watch it again. Had the same passion been put into the entirity of the movie that was clearly placed into the beginning... I probably would have placed it into my top 10 in horror.

Deliver Us got a decent production, a good working cast and a fine visual quality, but, like other reviewers already stated, the script/story is way too predictable and can't provide something really new or too exciting to the genre of what I would brand supernatural horror with a religious theme. The end of the movie is also a rather weak one, at least in my opinion. What else? The level on the horror-o-meter is a mediocre one: a few scenes of gore don't provide more than just a little spicy flavor here and there but not much. Verdict: Deliver Us - solid and decent but somewhat meandering around the level "mediocrity", not bad, not too good either, but that's mostly because of the plot. Okay, if you like movies a la The Exorcism of Emily Rose, The Rite, End of Days (starring the mighty Schwarzenegger) also comes to mind. Last note: next time, just deliver us a lil' more and surprising evil ;)
