Movie: The Devil Inside
Genre: horror
Synopsis: When Isabella (Fernanda Andrade) was a young child, her mother, Maria (Suzan Crowley) was believed to be possessed. During an exorcism performed on her, Maria killed three people. The Catholic church steps in and spirits Maria away to an asylum in Italy. Fast forward to the present. Isabella is now an adult. She decides to go to Italy in a quest to find her mother and find out for herself what is wrong with her mother. She brings along a friend to film the whole thing. Isabella befriends two renegade priests who perform unsanctioned exorcisms. They decide to help her understand more about exorcisms and, ultimately, to help her with her mother.
My two cents: It does not take much for me to enjoy a movie. This movie missed even my low bar. There was pretty much nothing original. Some of the scenes of possession had some fairly good special effects showing the bodies doing some cringe-inducing contortions. Outside of that, I just kept waiting for something interesting to happen. I thought the ending was especially bad – it was as if the writers just arbitrarily decided that the movie had gone on long enough and ended it. I would not even waste time watching this on TV.
