Fantastic!

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Is too bad this isn´t good because the concept is gold. It goes for a neo-noir horror mystery comedy, how cool is that? It is mysterious alright. It kind of floats around, without much highs and lows, between the main character trying to figure out what happened during her possesion and her efforts to control a possible demon´s return. The 12 steps for possessed people is genius. It sets a world where this kind of things seem normal and that feels nice, like getting something annoying out of the way. The problem is it tries to be so many things at once than it´s mostly none of them. The ending is atrocious. I´m not a fan of this digital filming stuff, it looks horrible. Overall, it´s a sexy and funny horror mystery, cool enough to be worth the time.

This amateurish mess of a movie tries to be a horror/comedy but falls flat. It is neither scary nor humorous. I spent the entire flick wondering why respected actors like William Sadler, Carol Kane and Lou Taylor Pucci (who is unrecognizable here) would stoop to participate in this sorry excuse of a film. Perhaps they owed someone a favor. When the lead character attended a meeting of 'Spirit Possessions Anonymous' I thought this may be similar to 'Scary Movie', 'Naked Gun' and other satirical comedies, but no such luck. I won't bother to describe the plot of this disaster, but some of the dialog is priceless...such as 'I think my demon likes me, I'm the first girl he was ever inside.' and 'It was negative space, like a donut hole.'

I dunno... this should have been a pretty great dark/quirky cult movie, along the lines of Repo Man and After Hours and others like it. The cast was great, the cinematography was appropriately oddball (so many Dutch angles! so much neon lighting!)... and that music, with all its funhouse-mirror doo-wop and moody rockabilly-ish twang, was ready for action.And yet, it just didn't go there, which is a real shame.Characters kept having these stilted awkward talky scenes where the whole thing just dragged. It's like someone with some influence felt this could be a horror trope parody, and someone else kept wanting it to be a lightly-creepy noir-ish thriller of the Lynchian variety, and yet someone else kept trying to keep things on track towards the kind of breathless, no-holds-barred screwball wackiness that should have been but never actually came to be.Anyway, it's kind of a mess as it is, and it sure seems that could have been avoided.

This movie drew my attention due to its somewhat original premise. Instead of focusing on her possession, this movie asks the question, what is life like AFTER your demon has been exorcised? It's a question not many movies have asked, so I sat down and took it in.AP has some starts strong, with a mystery at hand. I love movies that keep me off-kilter and I wasn't quite sure what was happening. This puts the viewer in the shoes of Ava, who also has no memories of her possession and therefore, no idea of the damage she wrought. There is also a lot of dark comedy here, with the rehab for the once possessed and Ava dealing with the things she did (beat up people, slept with strangers etc)Sadly, the movie loses focus and gets convoluted, with too many players on the board. They also have sub-plots like a girl who wants her demon back and a serial killer on the loose, that just didn't do anything but confuse the main plot. If they had left this stuff on the back burner, Ava's Possessions would've been a much stronger film. Points for originality and the acting is pretty decent, but unfortunately they tried to do too much and it ended up taking away from the main story and weakening the entire flick.
