If The Devil Inside has any innovation to make to the exorcism film genre, it's iteration.

| Aug 28, 2019

The Devil Inside is yet another dull found footage effort with nothing, bar a mad climax, to offer audiences.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 19, 2012

Some found footage should really just stay lost.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 11, 2012

It's not just a dull, witless, horror film, it's also an incredibly lazy one.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Jan 14, 2012

From the amateur acting, writing and directing to an ending that is shocking only in its stupidity, The Devil Inside will make you puke for all the wrong reasons.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 13, 2012

It stumbles along to what may arguably be the most abrupt, nonsensical ending since Luis Bunuel stopped slicing cows' eyes for the sake of surrealism.

| Jan 10, 2012

"The Devil Inside'' usefully reminds us how little it takes to make some people scream in a crowded movie theater.

People of the world: If you find some footage, leave it be. You will likely be doing the rest of us a huge favor.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 7, 2012

The Devil Inside's biggest shock arrives when it abruptly ends - just as it hits its stride.

| Original Score: C+ | Jan 7, 2012

Whatever possessed Bell & Co. to turn a slow-burning creepfest into a frenzied freak show of multiple exorcisms (including one in a moving car), the devil only knows.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 6, 2012

You can see where this is going, and the filmmakers can see that you can see. So they rush to the hideous yet hilarious climax in little more than an hour and then pad the running time with the slowest-moving credits ever.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 6, 2012

While it doesn't exactly reinvent the inverted cross, The Devil Inside definitely puts a nifty indie spin on the demonic possession genre.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 6, 2012

Clearly, when a cheapie pickup like "Paranormal Activity," which Paramount released a few years ago, turns into franchise gold, there's just no stopping the banality.

The Catholic Church was wise to want nothing to do with The Devil Inside. Everyone else should follow suit.

| Original Score: F | Jan 6, 2012

Bell directs with all the enthusiasm of a guy who was called into work on his day off.

| Original Score: F | Jan 6, 2012

Director William Brent Bell (Stay Alive) and his co-writer Matthew Peterman offer way too much set-up for too little payoff.

| Jan 6, 2012

Proves as scary and unsettling as a slab of devil's food cake - only considerably less satisfying.

| Jan 6, 2012

The Devil Inside joins a long, woozy-camera parade of found-footage scare pictures, among them The Blair Witch Project, the Paranormal Activity films and certain wedding videos that won't go away.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 6, 2012

The Devil Inside just comes across as lazy and unnecessarily serious given how silly it becomes -- if it had just a touch of lightness, at least it'd feel like we were laughing with it instead of at it.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jan 6, 2012
