Review of Devour

Devour (2005 Video)
2/10
This Pathway leads to a crappy film
24 July 2009
Jake Grey (Jensen Ackles of the hit TV show "Supernatural" and "My Bloody Valentine 3D") gets drawn into a seemingly demonic game called 'the Pathway' that his friends, whom are already addicted to the game, sign him up for it. Now he's stuck on a path that may have disastrous consequences.

While you'd be forgiven for thinking this movie would be akin to similarly-themed horror films such as "Brainscan" or "Arcade", the actual plot device of 'the Pathway' game falls into the background (whether this is due to numerous rewrites I don't know) as the film goes in a decidedly different path of demons/possession. This would be fine and all if it was even remotely well-done. It's not. Instead we're 'treated' to a mish-mash of half-baked ideas that are very silly and banally done. Of course screenwriters Adam and Seth Gross would epically fail again with their next film, the much-maligned adaptation of the DOA video game series, but somehow even that disaster was more watchable than this one.
