5/10
The Devil Made Me Do It!
28 May 2019
Warning: Spoilers
"Devour" is a "B" blood and guts movie with plenty of both . Its about a well to do college student Jake Gray (Jensen Ackles) who has visions or if you will, premonitions of violent acts. On his 21st birthday his friends Dakota (Dominique Swain) and Conrad Dean (Teach Grant) gift him with a computer game called "The Pathfinder" which it seems has all of Jake's personal data coded in.

Jake meets comely young Marisol (Shannyn Sossamon) while working his job at a computer store. He meets her again at the nursing home where his crippled mother Anne Kilton (Jean Griffen) is staying. A relationship develops. Meanwhile things in Jake's world are changing. He starts getting wierd phone calls through the Pathfinder game foretelling of events to come.

After Jake is fired his boss accuses him of robbing the store. However the video footage clearly shows the boss doing the deed. Hmmmm. Later, Conrad is found dead, having committed a bloody suicide after shooting a couple with whom he had had problems, in their bed during a passionate lovemaking. Dakota meanwhile, has been fending off the advances of her horny professor and end up murdering him and committing suicide herself.

Jake begins to have visions of demons and premonitions of him shooting his father Paul Kilton (Alan Ackles - Jensen's real life father). Could it be the devil that is behind all of this? Anyway, it all ends up in a gory finale where.........................................................

I guess the viewer should bee aware as to what kind of film this will be when the opening sequence has Jake gutting a cougar that he has just shot. Don't know how this is supposed to fit into the story.
