Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Majorthebys Charming and brutal

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

arfdawg-1 The Plot. generally An old man sells his soul to the devil, and turns into a young man. He then uses witchcraft and black magic to win a woman from his rival.An interesting thing to note is that as movies transitioned from the 50's to the 60's there were lots more location scenes and it makes it fun to look at the cars and buses and such from back then.And the early 60's films also had a smattering of beat music which is interesting to hear.So on tot he movie. Not's not horrible, but there is one fatal flaw, When the old guy sells his soul and becomes young, why does he lose all his memory too -- except that he's the young old guy? He doesn't remember the people who knew him and such. Dumb.The movie is a bit slow and the acting isn't always that great but it's an OK watch

Wizard-8 I must admit that I usually have a soft spot for movies where people get great powers and start eliminating their enemies one by one, so I thought that I would like "Devil's Partner". But in the end I thought the movie was a letdown. I will admit it gets off to a decent start, with some intrigue and even a little eeriness, plus also a little style injected by the director. However, after the promising opening, the movie loses its way. It becomes a real slow-moving story (despite having a running time of only 72 minutes), and it is seriously lacking bite. The movie really needed a harder edge; as it is, it feels too soft as well as slow. While I wouldn't call the end results terrible, the movie all the same is a big disappointment.

gavin6942 An old man (Ed Nelson) sells his soul to the devil, and turns into a young man (also Ed Nelson). He then uses witchcraft and black magic to win a woman (Jean Allison) from his rival (Richard Crane).Nelson is probably not a well-known name to many, but perhaps he should be. For fans of horror and science fiction, it is worth pointing out that he worked with famed B-movie producer Roger Corman on such films as "Cry Baby Killers", "A Bucket of Blood", "Teenage Cave Man", and "Attack of the Crab Monsters". That is not a bad bunch of films to appear in! Stanley Clements should be given credit for writing a simple yet compelling plot. He was primarily an actor and was known to be a part of the East Side Kids or Bowery Boys film series. Apparently, he could have been just as successful as a writer if he had chosen that route!

Gafke Don't get too attached to the idea presented by the movie poster or the film box cover for this movie - there is no beautiful naked woman bareback-riding a wild centaur anywhere to be found. Sorry. But despite this fact, The Devils Partner is not a terrible film. It makes up for in mood and performances what it lacks in the style that a bigger budget might have given it. A nasty, hairy, smelly old hermit sacrifices a goat in his dingy shack and is given a new life by the Devil Himself...or at least I'm assuming it was the Devil. You only get to see a burned black hand co-signing a contract that our hermit has already signed with the blood of the poor, aforementioned goat. Anyway, the hermit - minus about 40 years and having benefited from a recent flea bath - waltzes into our story which takes place in a heat blasted desert town. Mr. Brand New SatanicPants never breaks a sweat, strolling cool as ice cream into the lives of Nell and her boyfriend and causing major problems for both of them before he can be dispatched. True enough, this is a low budget extravaganza, but it makes the best with what it has to work with. The performances are sincere, the mood is spooky and the plot is actually rather original and benefits from some light yet surprising touches of perversion and sadism. Filmed in black and white and totally devoid of gore, The Devils Partner still manages to be disturbing, especially when you take into consideration the year in which it was made. Harmless entertainment, and not a total waste of an hour and a half or so.
