Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Fahad i like this type of movies, and of its kind i think its realistic and has such a good drama, this movie about satanism and its not like other satanism movies that are a terrible mix-up crab that lack the sins of drama. but this one is different its decent also has a solid script and brings you the satanism picture in a real good way, it's has this clever satanism scheme and gives you an example of how they doing their thingsits real entertainment to watch, i think its more thriller than horror.here's a thing, couple years back i heard this story that literally match the story of this movie!!a highly recommend this one, don't miss it.
Conrado Meireles I really love this movie. Suspense, mystery and sensuality from start to finish. The characters, the plot, the music, the photography seem so normal in the first analysis. But the feature film is so well shot and staged that it takes the viewer into the plot. The plot and the mystery get better every minute. I really enjoyed the ending. It's those endings that makes you think days on the subject addressed. I think I would also have a sad ending if I were the main character in the movie. Another detail to mention is the charm of the big city in the 80's. Charm brings with it mysteries, secrets and dangers. And finally, I recommend this movie to everyone.
mortiis33-969-390769 The summary above may sound harsh, but after just recently re-checking this film out after many years of forgetting about it the first time around when it was initially released, I can not really be anything but honest.Kelly Preston is (of course) beautiful, stunning, in fact, but her acting skills are just not really up to par for this title, and I don't think they ever truly improved a great deal from this either. In saying that, this film has a few jump-scares (the "classic jump-scares, not these modern day fillers), which are rather effective, and I really love the dog and cat which are in the film, they're so cute!Another fine thing about this film is it's soundtrack, in particular the instrumental piece by Tom Scott - "Siren's Song" which plays on the stereo system in Jeff's apartment when he first brings Miranda home. This is true 80's jazz influenced brilliance in all it's glory, and I wish I had a copy of the tune itself, but it is incredibly hard to track down (and I don't think included anywhere but within this film's soundtrack).All in all, a 4 out of 10 is rather generous, but I do love the animals in this, and Kelly's beauty is a nice distraction from this otherwise cliché and very boring late 80's thriller.
Bizandplez I watched the first hour of this thing and I thought the guy had to be the most doubting Thomas I had ever seen, bordering on retarded. I started thinking it was going to have a disappointing ending like that Nicholas Cage movie about him on the Witch Island in Washington and like Blaire Witch did. Turned the channel and came here to figure out what was going to happen. One guy wrote not to expect a nice ending out of this thing and thanks for that as I hate evil endings.I think IMDb ought to have some sort of rating system for films so a person could figure out if Good wins over evil or some other counter culture thing happens.
