Two lesbians perform a sitting scissor to open the film. One is pretty, one is not. The pretty one dies from having her pinkie hacked off with a machete. And apparently some rough slapping."Kids, we're going out for a family day today... sand dune, truck stop gas station, and a hill. A HILL WITH BOULDERS AND CAVES!!1!!1! You may play there unsupervised for 90 minutes."Mommy is mildly attractive with a cute figure, but a complexion like coarse sandpaper. During the scene in which she is interrogating Marcia, the director shoots her at such an angle and in such light as to make her skin look like the surface of the moon. After murdering Lucio, the couple find a shower in which to wash off his blood. And screw. Daddy brings his briefcase with him up the hill and into the cave of doom. The family loves to wear brown. The children don their Party Clothes prior to being drugged.Watch the dubbed version just to hear the accent of the actor voicing the police sergeant. It's a hoot and a half. Rating: Two stars: One for each of Marcia's nipple piercings.

Very interesting film that reminds me of pet cemetery. There was just a little bit to much nudity for my taste but it wasn't overly excessive to the point of diminishing the movie. When I see many of the reviews for this film I have to wonder if the reviewers watch many low budget horror movies. You either understand and enjoy this kind of film or you don't. there is a whole lot of subtext in this film. The main problem for me is that it isn't in English and reading the subtitles takes me out of the film, and makes it harder to catch nuances in it too. All in all as far as b or foreign horror gives, this is well acted, shot, edited and the story isn't out in left field. The pace will be a bit slow for some viewers. A great Netflix night pick. I'd love see an American remake.

This is a fairly straightforward story that lacks surprises but is reasonably entertaining. See it for the shock value. Even by horror standards, this is not for the easily offended; themes include: satanism and the occult, menstruation, gratuitous nudity, gory violence, graphic sex, implied pedophilia, and described incest. Probably not a good movie for a first date!The story isn't complicated; it meets the expectations set by the title and synopsis. The characters are equally simplistic, their actions implausible, often leading nowhere. The most sympathetic character is the babysitter, who got more than she was bargaining for and doesn't know what the hell happened! (And has the boobs to prove it!)And what's up with the frequent, jarring camera zooms? The cinematographer should be shot. It's like a technique Robert Rodriguez would use when spoofing '70's grindhouse flicks.This is the kind of movie you find late night on cable TV. Lots of visual punch to grab the viewer's attention, nothing complicated to force you to think too much, impulsive action that shows the writers weren't having to think too much either. Enjoy it for the gonzo exploitation flick it is and don't expect anything more.

Honestly i don't understand how it's possible that this movie at the moment got so many good reviews and a general decent response. The screenplay is just dull and the characters makes stupid things for all the time. Really. What kind of parent would leave their children go alone for a walk in the creepiest spot in the world while doing a quick bang in a car parked? Or again what kind of parent would bring their children to see who was supposed to be their harasser just after a psychologist have told them that their children needed support because they are experiencing a traumatic event? The movie is full with this kind of nonsense plot things, completely unnecessary nude scenes (like the lesbian scene at the start of the movie), plain dialogs and the ZOOMS. There are lots of zooms and all of them are really really annoying. In conclusion "Here comes the devil" it's just a mess, avoid it if you want to see a good horror movie, but if you are looking for a comedy keep it in mind because like "Manos:hands of fate" it's so bad that eventually you can even found it funny.
