Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
In a genre which has hashed out some bilge, Chasing the Devil manages to hit a true low. I don't know who has written some of the other reviews here but one suspects they are involved in the film or they watched a totally different film. The acting is beyond lame, it is shockingly pathetic, the dialogue is hideously contrived, the cinematography uninspiring and insipid. For a horror film, there isn't even a genuine scare let alone a moment of mild unease. I've done scarier farts. The premise is also silly. The only benefit of the film is that it shows what a load of clueless charlatans these so called 'paranormal investigators' are which sadly probably wasn't the intention of the film; however I now know to avoid any future garbage those responsible for this utter mess. No more please...To the makers and 'actors' this is not your metier. Go dig holes instead....
Patrick takes a trio of TV paranormal investigators with him to observe a couple's daughter, who appears to be suffering from the same possession that Patrick's own sister had suffered from before her untimely suicide, in this low-budget horror flick that's firmly in the 'found footage' sub-genre.I didn't particularly care for the 'found footage' sub-genre, as in my mind, most of the films can come across as cheap, lazy, badly acted & sloppy. This film suffers from it's faults yes, but it's still marginally better than other swill that populates this genre. Still not enough to rewatch it again anytime soon (or ever) though.
Easily the best found footage movie i have seen. Despite the low budget, all was executed in a great manner. Was awesome to see footage from all different angles, from the camera man to the video monitors and the portable go pro's. The beginning was interesting and his last few words before the footage of all that has happened began really gained my attention and drew me in.A fair few moments made your heart race, and the gore was fantastic to see. It had also made me feel eerie inside, very few movies can do this to me, so i applaud it.It makes you think about all the malicious things some people have done and how all this could be the cause of something supernatural. After all he could actually be coming to get us. Partner is rather scared!
A young man hooks up with a team of paranormal investigators to find out what happened to his sister, who he believes was killed and did not in fact commit suicide. Clues lead him to the home of a young teen who seems to be succumbing to the same fate as his sister.This one is riding on the wave of the recent trend of low budget found footage but is a refreshingly interesting entry about possession. The effects are very well done. Some of the acting is a little over the top at times but it is ultimately scary with a lot of freaky scenes, decent gore, and awesome kills. Recommended to fans of possession or found footage fans, it is very entertaining. 7.5/10.
