Critic Reviews

J.R. Jones

Some of the illustrious cast members were on their way up (John Travolta), but most of them were on their way down (Eddie Albert, Ida Lupino, Keenan Wynn). Read full review

Roger Ebert

The problem is that the material's stretched too thin. There's not enough here to fill a feature-length film. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

When the explanations begin (mainly a flashback to 17th century ancestors), things become heavy-handed, revealing the ragged direction, a dire script, and performances which range from the bemused (Albert) to the awful (Borgnine). Read full review

Richard Eder

The Devil's Rain is ostensibly a horror film, but it barely manages to be a horror. The quality of writing, acting and direction give a general and routine witlessness to this movie. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Staff (Not Credited)

Uniformly dull and predictable, save for the sight of Borgnine turning into a goat-headed demon--not much of a stretch, perhaps--and Travolta (in a small role) melting along with the rest of the cast. Read full review
