Nefarious

Subtlety is not the film’s strong point. Neither is casting.

Perhaps its worst mistake is categorizing it as a horror film. It has nothing to do with the genre... [Full review in Spanish]

A prefabricated plot with a predictable conclusion, cardboard characters, and an aesthetic devoid of that imagery with which Bergman dressed his stories about the dark contours of belief. [Full review in Spanish]

Although it has a strong beginning and a great premise, the truly terrifying part is watching this movie go off the rails. [Full review in Spanish]

A psychological thriller that gets bogged down in its own game. [Full review in Spanish]

A theological, philosophical, and metaphysical debate couched in the psychological thriller genre. The world currently needs this debate of atheism vs. a creation featuring a rock-solid moral underpinning that never changes due to human whims.

After kicking things off with a pretty solid fake out, the film settles into a repetitive rhythm that quickly becomes tiresome.

A battle of wits between a psychiatrist and possible demon makes for a tense film.

Nefarious has been inaccurately described as a horror movie. It's a poorly made psychological drama about a death row inmate, with no real scares and too much over-acting. As this dull movie drones on, it becomes preachy propaganda for right-wing beliefs.

Nefarious advertises itself as a possession thriller but pulls a bait & switch to deliver a Christian and Conservative propaganda piece. Flanery does his best to elevate what is otherwise a 90 minute sermon on abortion, euthanasia, and the death penalty.
