May the Devil Take You

I was told, disturbing and gory so I had to search for this Indonesian flick. Simple, it's on Netflix. Seen it I have to agree that some shots are gory.

Starts a bit slowly with a great start after 30 minutes I thought is this it and just when I thought to stop this flick slowly the eerie atmosphere comes in. And once the possession is out there this turns into a rather good horror.

Disturbing, not for me but i do understand that the creepy possessed people can be to much for some. One shot is indeed full of gore and well done.

Above mediocre but not one that will stuck to mymind, still if you like them dark and scary, watch it.

I enjoyed this. I thought it had some genuinely creepy moments. The effects were ok. They weren't the best but they weren't really cheesy. I think that the story could've used a bit more attention. I know that a lot of horror snobs will try to knock this film off it's feet but my opinion is that this was worth the watch. If you are looking for blood, guts and gore this is not gonna leave you satisfied. This leans more towards possession, ritualistic, and creepy horror. I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Edited my review on 23rd Oct 2020 aft revisiting the film cos i am gonna see the second part which looks promising.

I understood n liked the film more aft second viewing. Found the black blood/vomit to be too much. The mumbo jumbo stuff is silly but the film is creepy, atmospheric n very gory. Comparisons to Evil Dead n Wither will crop up in reviews but this one will satisfy fans of horror films. The plot - A young woman Alfie had been estranged from her rich father for years after her mother's brutal accident. She gets a call from her step sibling regarding her father's mysterious illness and when she visits the hospital, she comes to know that her step mother needs her signature for selling off an old, abandoned rural house. Alfie visits the old house after strange happenings regarding a ghost but unearths a terrifying secret about her father's wealth.

The film does have some flaws n moments of stupidity but it has its share of jump scares, scary demonic faces n voodoo stuff. Honestly, it is creepy at times.

The thing which is missing is the explanation of the witch. As a fan of the director's earlier efforts, I am a bit generous with a 7.

It's the Indonesian Evil Dead. Great directing & really terrifying visuals. Some of the shots were amazing. But could have been so much more if there was a good story to it. Another case of a script that goes no where. Still, had fun watching.

Damn scary as i thought! Watched it on netflix alone and i felt it really very scary! I wished i shouldn't have been watching it alone! Alot of frightening parts! Hence its a good flick for a horror lovers! Worth giving it a try!
