Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Michael Ledo The film opens in 1955 with the birth of a daughter under dubious circumstances. The mother dies, it is a cat thing and we jump 22 years later to Jessica (Elyssa Davalos) a dress designer in San Francisco, a dead Satanic give-away, although Jessica doesn't know anything about this. It would seem the Dark Lord could simply occupy a willing person that designated someone who grows up clueless and doesn't want the gig. I don't write this stuff. Andy (Dack Rambo) runs into Jessica and falls in love in about three dates (not 10) and realizes something is wrong because of an old building has a draft and enlists the help of a couple of priests...cheaper than fixing the furnace.This was a TV pilot film for ABC in 1977 which would have had a long train of "Exocist", "Omen" and "Rosemary's Baby" type episodes without Ave Satani, Tubular Bells, or Carmina Burana. The music made the films. This film was boring as hell. Available on some multi-film discs.

MartinHafer This film begins much like "Rosemary's Baby", though in this case Beelzebub apparently got a girl--a girl who grew up and had no idea she was the child of pure EVIL!! During much of the first part of the film, she is wooed by a creepy suitor (Dack Rambo)--who is supposed to be romantic because he won't take NO for an answer (I sure was getting rapist vibes from this!). Then, abruptly, the film switches and you hear nothing more about the lady after she is hypnotized! The plot changes to a child who is possessed and her mother (a young Kim Cattrall)--and the viewer is left wandering what happened to the Devil's daughter?! And, by the end of the film, you have absolutely no idea whatsoever! The film just abruptly ends! "Good Against Evil" was apparently a failed TV series pitched by ABC. It's hard to imagine now, but with the popularity of books and films such as "The Exorcist" and "The Omen", someone at the network thought it would be a good idea to create a TV series about the fight between the followers of Satan and God. The problem is that although this MIGHT have worked, the DVD for this is amazingly unsatisfying to watch--it's not really a movie but PART of a plot for a film that was never completed. What they did show really isn't very good and since there is no ending or even a reasonable stopping point, I can't see any reason to recommend it. It literally stops as if they just ran out of film!! Not worth your time.

Gafke This made for TV Exorcist rip off doesn't feature much of anything good: the acting is okay and Richard Lynch is always welcome as the Bad Guy, but the plot is nonsensical and the entire movie is sluggish and very boring.Jessica is a strong, single woman living in San Francisco. She meets Andy when he rear ends her car and after she screams at him like a PMSing harridan for nearly five full minutes, he begins stalking her in that cutesy, romantic way that guys did back in the 70s before restraining orders got popular. Jessica finally agrees to go out with him, despite the fact that every other guy she's ever dated has mysteriously died. This doesn't discourage Andy, who decides to marry Jessica after a whirlwind three week long romance. But Jessica has already been promised to Astaroth by the evil Richard Lynch. And she has the unfortunate ability to bring shadows and cold temperatures into a church with her. A nosy priest is murdered, a few childish looking pentacles are scrawled around and a cheap dime store hypnosis gimmick is all it takes to steal Jesica away. Why Lynch didn't just keep her with him to begin with is anyone's guess. Anyway, Lynch then decides to distract Andy with an ex-girlfriend whose daughter has been inexplicably possessed by the devil...a plot twist which serves no other purpose than to showcase a very lame exorcism scene, complete with shaking bed. Nothing is resolved, nobody wins and the movie just sort of stops with several large threads still dangling in the breeze.This is a terrible movie, which is a shame because it could have been okay. The cast is pretty decent and the acting really isn't all that bad. It's just poorly written, clumsily plotted and apparently filmed by a very depressed insomniac. Unless you're a very big fan of Lynch, or you're curious to see what Kim Cattrall was doing before writing sex books, skip this mess of a movie.

bensonmum2 It's a romantic story that's as old as time – boy meets girl, but girl is destined to wed Satan. Seriously, that's pretty much the whole plot. A girl is born and raised to make the perfect bride for Satan. Her whole life has been carefully planned and mapped-out for her. So when love enters her life, those who have worked to protect her must put a stop to this new threat.Good Against Evil is a 70s television movie that looks like a 70s television movie. Acting, sets, and other technical aspects are just what you would expect if you grew up in the 70s huddled around the television waiting for the Movie of the Week. Most everything in the movie is safe and sanitized and ready for general consumption. The exorcism scene, the supposed highlight of the movie, is subdued in comparison with others that have been dramatized on film. In fact, the whole movie could be described as subdued. It's incredibly slow-paced and predictable. It doesn't take a psychic to spot the twists and turns in the plot. And the ending is about as jarring a finale as I've seen. It seems that Good Against Evil was meant to become a regular, weekly television series. So the movie just abruptly ends with several unanswered questions and was to be continued in the next episode. The problem is there never was a next episode.The exception to almost everything I've written is the opening scene of the baby girl's birth and the death of her mother. In comparison with what follows, it's quite creepy. It's a dreamlike sequence that doesn't look or feel like the rest of the movie. Had the movie followed the tone of the opening set-piece, it might have been a much better movie.
