Mariology It's been awhile since I've seen this, but it was a real psychological thriller. The kind that makes one stop & consider what this movie was really trying to get across to the audience. While it's not the best of horror movies, it's certainly far from the worst. It stayed with me, often playing through my mind even a few weeks later. If you like horror movies that concentrate more on messing with your mind than cheap jump-out-at-you type scares & gore, I think you'll enjoy this one!
Paul Magne Haakonsen I can't really say that "Devour" was a great movie, despite having both Shannyn Sossamon and Dominique Swain on the cast list. They were, in fact, the reason why I purchased this movie.The story is about Jake (played by Jensen Ackles), who sees macabre visions that turn into reality, as he has been introduced to an online game named "The Pathway". Trying to make sense of the disturbing events, Jake seek help from his newly met friend Marisol.Story-wise then "Devour" was mediocre and nothing extraordinary happened throughout the course of the entire movie. The movie wasn't particularly scary or thrilling, and it was sort of an ordeal to make it through to the end."Devour" is not groundbreaking in any sense, and not even Shannyn Sossamon and Dominique Swain could do only that much to lift up the movie, given the restraints of the script and the directorial hand of David Winkler. And "Devour" can't even bolster itself on having an impressive array of special effects to rely on.There are far better horror and thriller movies out there.
heystartrek The opening credits and music do suck.Lots of drool goes to the boy from Supernatural in this film (according to the reviews thus far). We found his performance to be very good. We found the dialog to be oddly inspired. We enjoyed the plot twists and we also enjoyed how the twists did not play as overtly cheesy.Right when this movie is about to get lame, it does something cool again.Right when you think you've nailed down what's going on with this film, it switches it up just enough to make you wonder what might be next.This is a an above-par straight to DVD horror flick and it does not put us to sleep. It's recommended for wild moods that want grotesque imagery, meandering childhood fears, and respectable acting for just under two hours.This is the movie we're hoping for when we grab a random title at a pawn shop. A cheap horror flick with a little thought, a meandering plot, a touch of gore, and a couple of memorable scenes.Other than that, we must implore that the review thread about "the chair scene" take a jealousy pill and relax. Dominique Swain rocked it and if you hated it, it's cause it wasn't youse straddling Supernatural guy. She was (is) hot, sorry to break the news!Just sayin'. :)
beesofia According to most of the reviews for this movie, I thought it was going to be cheesy and lame. Boy was I surprised, Jensen Ackles did a great job, Shannyn Sossamon is always a pleasure to watch and Dominique Swain was trippy good. I also enjoyed the supporting cast-it's always fascinating to watch William Sadler-he constantly holds your attention, no matter what he's in or what role he plays. It's pretty neat to see that Jensen Ackles Dad, Alan Ackles, was also in this movie...I thought the story line was pretty good, and I really liked how the movie ended. Most movies of this genre end on a crappy note, this one didn't.
