Devilreaux

Can’t believe Lionsgate attached its name to this. Horrible acting. This could have been so much better.

If you haven't watched it then don't waste your time.

What a disappointment. With a great looking Boogeyman and the great Tony Todd, I hoped for much better. The acting was atrocious. The editing seemed almost skipped entirely. The dialogue was terrible. A knock off Candyman with Tony Todd.

Watching this was like watching the horror version of a lifetime movie. Insulting to history, Haitians, and everyone in general. The ending made it so much worse as it was extremely unsatisfying.

Even for a B movie, this was pretty bad. I understand people work on a budget but watching clips on how to deal with crime scenes and victims in a hospital is free on youtube. I didn't recognise Tony Todd due to the lackluster preformance he put on but I guess he was working with what he had. I will however say I did enjoy the costume and make up for Devilreaux

This film has a lot of potential. There were some editing issues and some scenes were slow, but all in all it was a good film. Actors played their roles well. You simply never know what you're going to get with a horror film and with Devilreaux, the acting had a great balance and delivery. It would have been interesting to see how the movie would develop if they stayed in the 1800's/early 1900's. Then for the sequel, bring it to modern times. All in all, this storyline was creative and original in its own way. Everyone says it's like Candyman. I don't see the resemblance except the fact that Tony Todd is in it. All the talk clouded my mind and opinion about the film before I watched it, so I made sure to watch it on a clean slate. I'm looking forward to seeing how all the other characters died. Again the film has a lot of potential and am looking forward to seeing what they will do with Devilreaux in the future.

I loved the movie. It was so magical when the tree spirit saved the mother and her baby in a three witch MacBeth scenario played by one actress. The images of Devilreaux, (Vincent M Ward) were just beautiful as he was walking through the fog. I loved that the movie didn't have to rely on gratuitous gore or jump scares to tell the story. I can't wait to see more from Director/writer Thomas Churchill. I just wish this movie had more advertising before it was released so more people would know about it.

The greatest 01 hour: and 34 minutes of spooky footage, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun but suspenseful. Great new character with lots of possibilities.
