Name the Demon

I really enjoyed it, the enclosed claustrophobic atmosphere fit perfectly with this story. The practical effects were what stood out the most for me, so many big budget films overuse CGI and it makes it look too cosmetic. What this pulled off was what Sam Raimi did in Evil Dead, I believe that was definitely inspiration for this film, I can't spoil anything examples, but if you watch this film you'll know what I'm talking about.

I hope to see more from these filmmakers and the two actors Danny and Scotty, horror genre fits them perfectly as I know they're huge fans of it.

Check this film out and enjoy what will be a cult classic.

I'm not sure which is worse between the dialogue and the acting. I'd swear this was done by college students or even high schoolers. I will skip personal attacks but will state that the acting was atrocious.

What was the completely unnecessary part about trying to kiss the cameraman??

If there was anything at all scary in this flick I completely missed it. A complete Exorcist ripoff without character development.

How was it even stretched to 1.25 hours except for repeated lines about "you have to tell us about ...."

Advice to viewers: pass on this one.

Advice to filmmakers: Please just stick to podcasting.

Atrocious writing, poorly acted (except the possessed woman, who was not terrible and the daughter, I guess), ludicrous conceits at every turn.

The one fun thing was the battery life on the camera being on screen at all times, It heartened me to watch it dwindle and bolstered my resolve to see this move through to the end. Watching the battery deplete was the best part of this film.

Thankfully, it was short. It could have been even shorter if we didn't have 10 minutes of one character's pointless searching of the basement while breathing directly into the microphone, but considering the rest of the movie it wasn't the low point.

True horror fans will enjoy this unique possession movie! Great special effects for a lower budget films and great performances from the actors! A few plot holes, but what horror movie doesn't have them!?

Jessi Nerud, Danny Bohnen, Scotty Bohnen, & Scott Moore gave great performances. If you like this movie this director and cast did another good horror movie called Sin Eater, which has a really cool premise and back story as well.

Found footage films often miss the mark but this one did not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and watch this low budget, horror found footage film it is definitely worth the short run time!

Forced into a house call, a team of exorcists arrive at the home of a query looking to perform the ritual which soon sets the group on a series of exploits trying to keep her from harming herself or those in the house with her while they attempt the fateful exorcism that will save her.

This was a really enjoyable if somewhat problematic genre effort. Among the better setups with this one is the series of exploits that go on involving the possession and all of the antics that follow. Featuring a strong setup to bring the group out to the house and why they need to keep filming everything which gives this a great cover for the found-footage format to follow, this one gets rather interesting as things play out involving the priests trying to get a handle on the situation the more they visit her. This leads into the first of several encounters within the house where the exorcism attempt tries to save her which goes through the usual epithet of exorcism films with the priests spouting the usual declarations of faith to God while the possessed writhes around on the bed spouting vulgarities about the hidden truth of the meeting behind everyone. This all comes together to provide quite a lot of fun in the final half when it gets to the released entity stalking them through the darkened house using only the camera for light as there are some genuinely unnerving scenes here involving the supernatural powers it has being put to good use all giving the film a lot to like about it. There are a few issues present with this one. The biggest drawback to the film is the bizarre series of different behaviors exhibited at the start of everything that tries to paint a specific picture of everything going on. The initial scenes of the crew arriving at the house and meeting the antagonistic father and his reactions to everything make little sense as if everything appeared out of nowhere despite repeated claims of being there due to him summoning them, when the situation is broached only leads to snarky comments about the nature of the church. It's all unnatural and confusing enough when this confrontational attitude continually presents itself to the point where it's pretty hard to trust what's going on. That becomes even worse when the series of revelations come about which only enhance that further as this brings about a series of generic and expected setpieces about relationships rather than doing what they set out to do in figuring out the name of the demonic figure possessing her. That's not even brought up once it was presented and instead turns this into a run-of-the-mill exorcism tale despite how much fun these scenes are. These factors are what end up holding this down.
