Alex (Michelle Argyris) is going to school and rooms with two other girls: Jessica (Shantelle Canzanese) who is like her BFF and Bree (Vanessa Broze) who is her frenemy. Unknown to Alex, her and Bree share her boyfriend Brian (Kevin Jake Walker) because Alex is still a "pure vessel."One night after some parting, Alex and Jessica visit a gypsy (Louise Hollingsworth). After this episode the film turns in "Rosemary's Baby," "The Exorcist", and "The Entity" which you can pretty much tell by the two titles for the film:The Devil in Me" and "The Devil's Seed." Guess who the kid is.The film has a good build up and creep factor. It is far superior to "Devil's Due" a film of similar topic. Worth a view for horror fans even if you know what is coming.Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Vanessa Broze).
... View More"The Devil In Me" (Not Devil Seed, more on that later) is a cliché ridden, hilarious mess, and the only way I can come to terms with it is by compiling one of my infamous lists. So, here goes...1. Why is the victim of these atrocities always 'The new girl in town?'2. Why is the only one doing nude scenes the bimbo with the boob job with a bit part? 3. Why would you break into a psychics for a 60 dollar reading after a heavy night out drinking? 4. Why is it the initial SHOCK when you hear a noise turns out to be nothing, but it always followed by the REAL SCARE?5. Why bother possessing someone you're raping so she'll give birth to THE ANTICHRIST?6. Why is it so convenient that the school councellor's father turns out to be A BLOOMIN' EXORCIST?!7. Why can a demonic spirit in flight be stopped by A SHOWER CURTAIN?!8. Why is this marketed as a horror when it should be a comedy? (18 you say?! BWHAHAHAHAHAHA etc)9. Why bother changing the name of the film in the UK? (Might have been better if they'd changed the director, writer, actors, caterers...) 10. Why, in this genre, do the credits ALWAYS begin with an appalling loud cacophony of noise by a metal band you've never heard of?I'm sure there are more, many more, but I'm off now to take some paracetamol and have a lie down. I've just got time for perhaps the most important question of them all: 11. Why was this ever made?! 4/10
... View MoreI will put up with a lot to watch a horror.... it's hard to find a really good one and I understand, accept and even like that you have to watch a lot of B's, C's and D's to find one that might rate higher.This one rates way, way lower. If the main actor wheeze-breathed any more I think I would have to rip my ears off. She has 3 expressions - blank, concerned/worried/scared (they're all the same), and devil face.The only redeeming feature about this film was the supporting actor, the brunette friend. The rest of the cast acted like they were in a school play and they'd had about 3 days to rehearse. There were no real scares, no jolts, and certainly nothing unexpected. My friend and I were anticipating the dialogue and most of the time we got it right.... there are no new premises here! I really would rather have re-watched nearly any other movie than see this for the first time..... Give this one a big ol' miss.
... View MoreGreat plot, acting, cast, filming, sound, editing, etc. LA quality out of London, Ontario. This movie has horror, humour, sexy actresses and actors, and much more. Room-mate troubles, bad boyfriend, demonic possession, excellent priest, spooky psychic and some memorable props. I remember seeing a lot of these places when living in London, ON and it was great to see them again on the big screen! This is an amazing movie, and am proud to say I own it. Am very impressed that a new Canadian team can produce such a first class movie.Kudos to Greg Sager, Robbin McDonnell, Gary Elmer and Geoff Hart. Joe Finlan and Steve Scott did an awesome job with sound as well. Can't forget Noel Sargeant, Michael Wilmont, Owen Flood and Leah Elmer. Can't wait for Matchbox to release more movies!!! Heard that Kingdom Come is next!!
