It seems the devil is back, after the last few dreadful "vampire years". We had the new Omen recently, a pretty good “Devil” movie, Religious from top to bottom REC2, and the awesome “The Last Exorcism”. So if people started liking exorcisms, priests and posessed little girls, why shouldn’t everyone jump on that wagon? And some more people did with the poor Emma Evans being posessed because she played with the ouija board, and sort of brought it on herself. Boo hoo!
So we had the last exorcism, the Emily Rose one, and now Emma Evans is in the house, playing FIFA on Xbox and being all posessed and sad at the same time. Too bad it doesn’t quite work because compared to “The Last Exorcism” this movie doesn’t win in ANY category. It’s simple, not scary, oddly written and the characters seem a lot out of place. It reminds me at times of Sy-Fy productions, just not the better ones. The acting is so-so, and the thing as a whole leaves the viewer impression-less. Nothing stands out in this movie – it’s just a horror flick about a possessed girl – nothing more, nothing less. If you’ve seen all the other recent Exorcism movies, then maybe you should check it out. But if you want a good Exorcism see the original from the 80′s because it’s far scarier. Almost as if the devil became more mainstream, like the one from South Park.
Not bad, not good. Sorry. I’d seriously like to see a good horror film set in the UK, but this one is pretty mediocre.
