At The Devil's Door

I loved it. I like movies that keep me guessing and this one did. There are times that the film gives you what you are expecting, but just as often they flip things around enough to leave you on not so solid ground. Fine acting doesn't hurt and there's some strong work on screen here.

As supernatural movies go, At The Devil's Door doesn't look, feel or even sound like the glut of recent possession flicks. It's refreshingly light on jump scares, preferring more subtle ways of putting the frighteners on its audience. Conversely, there is one scene that something really creepy happens, but the director drops it right in our laps and just as quickly pulls it away, and it very effectively left me asking if what just happened,,,well, happened.
There is one other thing that really stood out about this one, but it would require a spoiler, and I aint that kinda dude. My advice is to give it a try. It's one of the rare films that I feel confident recommending to anyone who likes dark and thoughtful horror.
