Devoured (2012)
7/10
A Diamond In The Rough!
18 September 2013
Warning: Spoilers
From the minute I started watching this film I was intrigued, we start with a detective leaning over the body of a woman in her early to mid thirties.(from my guess anyway)

Then we watch another detective descend down a flight of stairs of what looks like to be a basement in a restaurant, the female detective moves down a long corridor and then the screen fades to black and the story picks up obviously in the past where the same dead woman is alive and well and is not lying on the floor.

She is an immigrant from Mexico who is living and working in New York City to earn enough money to pay for her son's operation who is ill back in her home country. Things start to go a little awry in the restaurant as the film runs on, from things like shadowy figures and to ordinary objects around the restaurant that turn into more sinister things, such things like a garbage bag that looks like there is a body moving inside of it, but not quite, just plain creepy....

Well I won't go into too much detail, but I would definitely recommend this for a watch to anyone who loves a great thriller and just a well balanced abstract at times tale. I wish I would of ran across this little gem a little sooner, it was wildly entertaining, and twisted macabre fun. Devour is a quaint little flick that I will definitely remember.
