Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Misteraser Critics,are you kidding us

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Mike LeMar This could've been rated higher had it not been for the lame tangent it goes off on at the beginning after its cool/interesting premise. The couple goes to a fortune teller who determines the main girl's born from death, which really freaks her out and repels her to where she continues their walk around town not being able to get it off her mind. I thought, "Interesting. So there's something about her." Then, they go to a club where they get drugged so that they have a seance done on them to make her have a satanic baby. All in all, the rest of the movie had very quality suspense and interesting scenes, which is why I didn't rate it lower, but why hit the audience with an initial scene in a fortune teller's office when the rest of the movie really has nothing to do with that? Once the seance happened, I thought, "Oh, so this has nothing to do with her being born from death, which would've been a lot more interesting and cooler." The problem turns out NOT to be ALREADY her, it BECOMES her because of the SEANCE...and really, it's actually the evil group who keeps performing it on couples. Also, during a house party, a little girl wouldn't keep prowling around a pitch-black upper floor on her own with her camera in search of someone if she wasn't able to get her to respond by calling her from the stairs. Get real.

MitchellCombden this film is in every sense of the word atrocious. "directed" by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett in the year 2014. I have never seen a film so that was this uneventful and awful.the sub plot involving the satanic cult is preposterous and foolish. why do what they are doing, to people who are from another continent? because it's easier to lure tourists? if leisure is a factor, wouldn't it be harder this way though? keeping in mind that you have to follow the tourists back to a totally different continent to pursue the baby? why would you not just hold them captive until the birth? would it not make sense to do what they are doing to some locals instead? nothing about the plot makes sense and comes off as totally idiotic and abysmal.the characters are by far some of the most dull and idiotic characters I have ever seen. I am not even going to bother listing the actors names because it really doesn't matter. the husband is the biggest twit I have ever had the displeasure of watching in a horror film. immature and annoying to the extent that it becomes unwatchable. he decides to video tape EVERYTHING, the reason being because "i have to film everything so I can remember all the little things." so the film is the footage from his camera. yet we get clips from a grocery store security camera? as well as a segment filmed by random kids? it just doesn't make any logical sense in the context of the plot and ruins the realism. the acting itself is so wooden and unmemorable it's astounding. these characters say and do nothing interesting or even slightly fun.when I say that this film is uneventful I truly mean nothing interesting or memorable happens. zero effective scare scenes and zero tension. it's attempt to build itself up to the climax is laughable. the most interesting things that happen are the wife eats raw meat and she shouts at a youngster. the only scene that was even slightly, and I mean slightly decent, would be the scene involving the priest. Even the climax of the film comes across as uninteresting and has zero suspense or visual flare to it.truthfully one of the most dull and uninspired films I have seen in my entire lifetime.the verdict: 1.5/10

Leofwine_draca DEVIL'S DUE is another 'devil baby' movie, albeit one with a slightly left-of-centre twist: this one's a found footage reworking of the same storyline as in ROSEMARY'S BABY. The familiarity of the material means that it's something of a bore to sit through.The film isn't strictly found footage in that the camera-work isn't supposedly taken from characters using video cameras and the like; instead, the ever-present camera shoots in a documentary style. The actors are to be commended for giving naturalistic performances, and there are some decent shock sequences, particularly one involving a local vicar.It's just a shame, then, that the film has such a jaded feel to it and the premise is so hackneyed. The shake-all-over-the-place climax is particularly nauseating, and not in a good way. DEVIL'S DUE has potential but in the end the indifferent execution makes it a bit of a joyless chore to sit through.

putrescent_stench A mess of a film with totally unnecessary bookends. It's one in a long string of "found footage" films that doesn't add anything new to the genre, and falls below an even average, by-the-numbers example. It started out sort of intriguing, but it deteriorated quickly. There's lots of little weird scenes that don't seem to add much other than to show the "strangeness" of the child/Sam's behavior. For example, her penchant for eating raw meat - captured in a slightly funny supermarket scene, and later in an utterly pointless woods scene with some random characters who show up for no reason other than being killed off. Why would the Antichrist make someone eat raw meat? He's fighting back against all the vegetarians? This is just one example of many pointless scenes/tropes.The end (last 30 minutes or so) was what really killed the movie for me. Although it's filled with decent effects as others have noted, it's basically 30 minutes of Zach running around shouting, "Sam! Sam! No, Sam!" and shlt flying around. Killed any slight enjoyment I had. I loved the directors' "10/31/1998" segment in the original V/H/S (in fact, maybe my favorite segment of that movie), which bears some similarities to this film, but this fails to have the twists or originality that "10/31/1998" had.
