Review of Devour

Devour (2005 Video)
6/10
One of those new devil-uses-computers movies. Average.
3 September 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Take a dot.com movie (good looking youngsters barely leaving the teen age using computers), add a bit of Devil for spice, shake it a bit (with shaky text like in se7en, but none of the subtlety) and drop a small bit of The Game and you get Devour.

I can't say than any of the actors played bad, but since all of the characters where cliché they didn't really need to make an effort. The script is average, with the usual inconsistencies we now expect from a teenage audience horror-like movie.

Horror-like because there is no horror in the entire film. Not if you count actors with a lot of red die on them showed for fractions of a second scary.

And in the end there is something interesting, we find who the bad guy is, he suddenly appears and starts explaining things to the main character. We now see that it is a rather known actor (even if he did play in bad series) and we start expecting at least a notch of a bit of a granule of quality inserted into the movie. No, he just dies.

Watch this only if you are really bored.
