Platypuschow I wasn't even aware of The Devil's Doorway until someone linked me the trailer on social media. It looked truly terrible but I took that as a recommendation and gave it a go. The film was really oddly hard to get hold of, but upon viewing it I prepared for the worst as the trailer was pretty dire.It tells the story of two priests who are sent to investigate a statue crying tears of blood in a home for "Broken women". You know the drill, weird things happen and everything goes to hell.Irish made this is yet another cliched demonic film with a messy plot and more questions provided than answers. We've seen this before, but done considerably better. Mostly shot in the found footage format so therefore meant we don't see much and experience a whole lot of "Shaky cam". That didn't do the already mediocre concept any favours.Coherent but messy.The Good:The Bad:Things I Learnt From This Movie:If you listen very closely you can hear the exact moment the Priests heartbreaks upon being told there are no children thereChristians still think the pentagram has something to do with Satan
MikialUK The film has its cliches but is nonetheless interesting. I liked some of the priests conversations and questions and it would've been brilliant if they continued that path but the ending was rather wrapped up in the usual church themed cliches hence the rating for this film and the disappointment. The acting was good and believable and some issues regarding these shelters gave me chilling revelations and might as well depict a realistic point of view. Some issues with the film was the camera that's supposed to be from the 60s and that's not really true, there's no way anyone could've possessed a camera as such. But otherwise for horror fans, it's really worth watching. The found footage style was done good and not really a burden to the eyes. Well done Northern Ireland.
adonis98-743-186503 In the fall of 1960, Father Thomas Riley and Father John Thornton were sent by the Vatican to investigate a miraculous event in an Irish home for 'fallen women', only to uncover something much more horrific. The Devil's Doorway offers nothing new to the hideous footage films except a waste of 1hr and 15 minutes of your life plus lots os shaky cam. The acting wasn't that good either plus the movie was far from being scary or even smart as it wanted to be. Horror films have their good and bad side and this one? belongs on the bad side. (0/10)
tkaine3 The devils doorway may have a mediocre IMDB rating but do not take this horror film from the UK to be just an average scary movie because it's not. The acting in this feature is purely amazing and the storyline may not be the most original but writers have creative privilege and they can always refresh our memories if they so choose. And although "The Devil's Doorway" does have 2 or 3 jump scares over the limit the dialogue keeps you entertained while you wait for the actual occurrences to take place and yes regardless of what the advertising banner for this movie says this is found footage and it's a pretty darn good one. The camera has a few jiggly moments at the end of the movie but 95% of it was was steady and well angled. Special effects were decent and the camera editing was converted into the look of a retro 35mm camera giving it a boost of realism. All in all this movie definitely fits the bill of a good horror flick so I give it an 8 which means you surely won't be mad to sit down and check this one out when you get a chance.
