The Devil Within

Bad and boring. From the description I was hoping the saving grace would be gratuitous sex and nudity, but even that was few and far between. Sorry the movie doesn't deserve an in depth review.

Let me admit from the first that I am a fan of the lovely Miss Liz Di Prinzio and that I see a great future for her and that she is definitely one of the best things about this movie and I can see more better and better films coming Liz's way as she masters her craft. She is both talented and a very hard worker and very honest and passionate about her work and that shows through in this film.

The movie has lots of good points and like any budget teen flick also has all the negative points like stereotyping and mixed degrees of skills from both in front and behind the camera.

In the end the good points outweigh the bad and this flick has enough fun and gore and teen sexiness to entertain.

The opening scenes are edited really well although the alley scene, while critical to the story could have been handled better. The second half of the film flows better than the first part and the director needs to show more pace when establishing his actors or give them some tighter dialogue. The highlight was the dumb and dumber actors and of course the two female leads, Liz Di Prinzio and Sarah Harrison with good support from the vampy teen *itch played by Liz Bell. All three bring something to their roles and the beefcake school jock is exactly what you would expect, but he is outshone in all his scenes opposite Liz and Liz!!! The murder scenes were pretty well executed with some nice touches, which I won't reveal here, and the denouement is well done too and better than a lot of similar films in this genre.

Overall this film gets a 6 from me, but for movie lovers who like to see actors who are going places then see this one and enjoy Liz Di Prinzio and her two fellow female leads because I can see good things in the coming years. I love watching actors develop and change and grow and despite this film's budget restrictions it's still well worth checking out and has some excellent moments and nice touches.

I have just registered myself on IMDb only to warn people about this truly terrible film. The only reason why it has a score of 3.3 at the moment is because of a couple of idiots, who either fancy one of the actresses or get off from slasher movies.

This film has no storyline.It tries to create a plot at the beginning, but then doesn't follow it at all. As "airgoeg"'s review suggests, you have to be brain dead to enjoy this movie.

The acting is awful. There is no feeling from any of the cast. The only believable characters are a weed dealer and a street preacher, unfortunately both of which you hardly see any of, and are not even needed in the film/story.

Trust me. I am normally easily pleased when it comes to films. I am able to find the good in most things, but I don't care if this is low budget or not. I still wouldn't use the script to wipe my own *@#*. Even though it is only 1hr 15mins long (1hr 15mins too long in my opinion), I still feel I have wasted part of my life watching this film.

Sorry if i may sound a bit harsh! But let me tell you that in these days when, it is almost becoming an increasing habit to download for way to cheap or from the black market, any type of music and movies, without realizing that by so doing, they are destroying the only creativity left in the Entertainment Industry,and that, eventually and very soon, production will come to a stop, if they so keep on stealing, i am the one of those few, who always pays for his own movie tickets, DVD's/Blue Ray's and CD's! So i also feel the full right of bluntly honest expressed, when i payed for this abomination. A plot, that makes no justice to cult or Horror Films,and quite bring to a whole new level the word demeaning. Something so horribly created, directed, acted,well, if, of acting we can even talk here, where, even the savvy partial nudity is profane and vulgar and cheap, since all girls don't even seem belonging to the world of acting, but more to the one that represent the oldest profession the World can ever remember of! The guys are just so plain, considering all those talented, unusual, penetrating faces the world of underground Horror often tends to present, and i am thinking about people like Sid Haig,Tony Todd,Domiziano Arcangeli, Dylan Vox or even Toby Hemingway or Desmond Harrington,that probably weren't even available to read such a detrimental script,so shallow, bland,and juvenile, that you keep wondering how someone could even wanna produce! And last,but certainly not least,"something" filmed so badly to be able to bring to mind only some sort of real bad,poorly executed students film, whose director, had been plagued by severe hung over, during the weekend of this ill fated production! What else to say? Nothing,there's just nothing else to be said, sadly,and think that, normally i find great guilty and rewarding pleasures by exploring titles like this one,but here there's only one thing you may be wanna fully aware of: Run!

This movie is so dire, words can hardly express. Only watch it if:

a)You thought the last primary school pantomime you attended showcased some brilliant acting talent;

b)An engaging plot is unimportant to you;

c)You like to know exactly how a movie is going to end after you've watched the first 5 minutes; or

d)You're happy to watch anything where trashily dressed women constantly take off their clothes / can't keep their hands off themselves.

I watched this film with a friend who is a big fan of movies that fall into the 'd' category. Even he was forced to exclaim, about five or six times, oh my god, this is awful. Still, he argued, it's one of those movies that's 'so bad it's good'. I begged to differ. Two scenes in particular spring to mind 'the belch off concluded with a fart' scene and the 'I really need to pee' scene (the second one). Both impacted my quality of life in negative and irrevocable ways. My friend believes that the 'girl upside down with the pink panties on' scene should earn it a second star at least (as opposed to the one star which I generously awarded it, because I was forced to do so). Watch it for yourself and decide, or take my recommendation and re-caulk your shower recess instead, it's about as much fun and at least you'll care about the outcome.
