The Devil and the Daylong Brothers

The Devil and the Daylong Brothers is a wickedly entertaining, blood-soaked symphony of Southern Gothic revenge, supernatural intrigue, and foot-stomping blues. This genre-bending masterpiece follows three estranged brothers-Ishmael, Enoch, and Abraham-on a relentless, music-fueled quest to hunt down the father who doomed them before they were even born. Sold to the Devil for their father's personal gain, they now work as collectors of souls, chasing down those who made deals with the Devil just like their old man. Their ultimate goal? To settle the score with him once and for all.

With a richly woven mythology and an electrifying mix of action, horror, and dark humor, the film never lets up. The music is nothing short of spectacular-soulful, bluesy, and seamlessly intertwined with the narrative, heightening every moment without ever feeling intrusive. The lead actors deliver powerhouse performances, balancing grit, charm, and pitch-perfect timing, making these blood-stained antiheroes impossible not to root for.

Thrilling, stylish, and dripping with Southern-fried menace, The Devil and the Daylong Brothers is a wild, vengeful road trip you won't want to miss.

The whole movie was very engaging and the ending was unique and haunting. Very impressive acting, storytelling, and the music was integrated perfectly.

I expected the ending to be executed in a stereotypical "redeeming" ending, but the way the characters made their decision made sense.

The main characters defying the stereotypes of being "good people" also added to the depth of the movie.

Don't read too much into the plot (hey supernatural doesn't), it's a fun romp with great singing and music. It's basically a music video movie with plot sprinkled in to contextualize the songs and tie them together.

The brothers were fantastic, everyone was very talented in the film and enjoyable to watch. The cinematography of the south was beautiful (I'd rather see on film then visit - not a fan of humidity) and visuals were great. Very catchy songs. It's a great movie to drink and sing along to. It's got a basic overall story it follows, the hate is just from those expecting a traditional movie when this is more music driven than story/plot driven. Just don't take it too serious, pour yourself a drink and enjoy the music/movie.

This film is so incredibly rich. The characters are deeply developed and riveting and the storyline is engaging and surprising. I've never scene any like this film.

It feels like Quentin Tarantino made "O' Brother Where Art Thou" but in a way that feels intimate and personal. It's the right combination of violence, beauty, folklore, and hope. The action scenes are real and gritty, while the songs compliment there scenes in a way I never saw coming.

The actors embodied their characters in such and powerful way. I felt connected to them.

The story, the songs, and the score are all outstanding. Truly a unique and powerful film.

I enjoyed The Devil and the Daylong Brothers quite a bit. It's strengths were it's sharp writing (reminiscent of a Coen brothers film), catchy songs, and how well it nails the Southern Gothic style. Unfortunately the director's vision exceeded his budget in some of the action scenes but having many of them be musical numbers helps with that. True to the genre, the film explores the darker side of human nature so it's not for everyone but if you can stomach the violence and general evil constantly on display there is a powerful portrayal of mercy in the climax. I would love to see more of the Daylong Brothers quest to get their souls back.
