I am quite biased with horror movies since it's the only genre I like, but yeah, this generally was a good movie that stays with you a long time after you've watched it.

I find myself saying "Connect the Cuts" months after I watched the movie - that line was genius. Some scenes were quite disturbing, which is great. The acting was alright as well. But the ending wasn't very good at all, which is why I'll give it an 8. ...Connect the Cuts.… Expand

Best scary movie out there since Insidious! It does a good job of making you believe these characters are real and they are possessed by some kind of devil.

It does a good job of making you believe these characters are real and they are possessed by some kind of devil. The ending is good as well despite what others may have you believe. Packed with a ton of scary moments and makes you think that exorcism could actually be real, even though its not. Has more true scary moments(not false ones where a cat jumped down from a table or crap like that) than the woman in black, innkeepers, and paranormal 3 combined. Even the main girl in the movie is decent to look at… Expand

If you enjoy Paranormal Activity then you should enjoy this movie. Takes an interesting twist on exorcism movies and plays out as a documentary. Although as other reviews have said it ends abruptly.

Looking forward to part 2 (because you know there will be one).… Expand

Just Ignore the negative reviews. They are probably the same individuals that give Alvin and the Chipmunks 3 1/2 stars and give this movie a zero. I am a horror fan.

They are probably the same individuals that give Alvin and the Chipmunks 3 1/2 stars and give this movie a zero. I am a horror fan. I am generally not scared at movies these days. Movies like the typical Halloween slashing genre do nothing for me. My rating of The Devil Inside is based on similar genre of devil or exorcists movies. With the classic The Exorcists being the golden bar of devil movies, I have seen most every other exorcist related movies. I would put this movie (Devil Inside) at number 2 behind "the Exorcist." It is better than the Last Exorcism, much better than are the sequels (Prequels) to the Exorcist, better than Exorcisim of Emily Rose, and most recently The Rite. The movie stars slow and feeds the viewer in morsels until the awesome climax toward the end. The characters are likable with the exception of the camera guy. Good acting performance from all. There were several scenes that made me squirm in my seat. Many disturbing scenes. This is the type of movie where you will be glad to live with someone you trust and not alone. It is one of those movies that will stay with you. My guess is the negative reviews are from some people who are anti-Judeo Christian or anti-Catholicism. There is no way this movie is less than 7/10. I liked the ending as it was unexpected and different. This movie was better than expected and I recommend it be seen in the theatres. Go see it if you like this type of genre.… Expand

I watched the movie and liked, the movie is good, but lacked more terror for a movie exorcism. I must confess that I took fright at some moments, however, anyway, the movie didn't convince me much! a 7 is enough.

Up there with REC. I've seen quite a few exorcism movies. This is one of my favorites. I have no idea why it gets such a terrible review from critics while terrible movies like Dead Girl get a 65. That was trash.

I went to see it out of curiosity due to the fact that I have an interest in the subject matter. It is supposed to be a faux documentary, and as such does a very good job of grounding itself in reality. There are some very disturbing scenes in the movie, which are done extremely well considering the budget constraints. As for the ending, I thought it made perfect sense given the type of movie this is. Do not be swayed by the high number of bad comments, this is definitely worth a watch.… Expand
