Becoming - Das Böse in ihm

To me it didn't matter in which category they categorized this movie, it's a bit of all of the genres mentioned without any genre being more represented than others. The story was interesting enough to keep your attention at all time. To me it was well thought of, probably the best thing about Becoming. The acting wasn't bad but not the greatest either, it had it's ups and downs. The cinematography wasn't flawless, it made it look like it could have been a TV-movie at times. There is some suspense and the story is innovative and good, all reasons enough to give it a shot, just don't expect a masterpiece.

Fans of heavy CGI demonic possession scenes won't like this but what it lacks in explicit gore it makes up for in the sinister and uncanny.

Hellraiser it isn't but what we do have is an unsettling story that depicts evil as it really looks, like an ordinary man.

The idea is a simple one, that a human can be taken over by a supernatural parasitic spiritual entity and the hat this film does well is present that idea as a very human and relatable story.

I would agree that it's a bit slow, once it becomes clear that Lisa is aware of what her boyfriend has become, the we know the final girl moment is coming. But boy, doesn't it take its time.

Overall I enjoyed this, there's enough kept back to make the conclusion watchable. Despite the poor pace the performances were believable.

Slow paced boring movie. I don't understand the other reviews talking about this being tense and not knowing what comes next. To me it was very straight forward. I feel like I've seen this plot a million times before, only done so much better. The cast try their best, but it's just so boring. The entity isn't scary and I don't care about any of the characters.

The plot reminded me of the movie Fallen, but it wasn't as good. The ending could have been much better. She started making really dumb decisions. It was okay just for something to watch.

I like the English male actor from other films. Its not terrible. Definitely a low budget suspense movie. Not really memorable, perhaps theres too many of these out at once. It starts out really quite well..the actors save it from being bad. Strange things happen to this changing guy. Has the same sort of idea as the Outsider from HBO but way less character development as in none.. Better than alot of creature horrors out there. This is not that.
