Demise

Great film! Sexy, hilarious, twisted, and jaw dropping. I loved how the characters were believable, realistic, and even relatable Angelenos vs. Botoxed-out and expressionless. More of the European style in that regard. Fun to see all the cameos. I've recommended it to several friends. I don't watch a while lot of TV and most of the films watch are historical epics or documentaries. Or what my kids are watching. I truly enjoyed watching Demise.

Looking forward to finding out how Celine's character develops and what transpires between the new character. Would love to see Caleb show a little more Latino cultural values that are typical in these types of men in LA.

What I loved most about this film was how it evoked memories of one of my all-time favorites, "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle." Writer and director Yara Estrada Lowe masterfully blends elements of suspense and psychological intrigue, crafting a modern-day, more seductive thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. With its captivating storyline and intense performances, this movie promises an unforgettable cinematic experience that's perfect for a thrilling night in with your significant other. Even better, the movie grows on you with each viewing, revealing new layers and nuances that make it even more compelling the second or third time around.

You'll be on the edge of your seat watching this one! So many twists and turns! Just when you think the film cannot get any more intense, Yara Estrada Lowe pulls you in an entirely new direction. She is certainly an upcoming creative to be reckoned with in the film industry. The talent in Demise delivers extraordinary effort and leaves you wanting more. The pacing of the film is just the right speed to keep you wondering what will happen next. With such a promising directorial debut, Yara Estrada Lowe proves that she is here to stay. Denise is an experience that you need to be a part of. Check it out now!

This movie offers a truly fantastic storyline, packed with imaginative twists and turns that keep you guessing throughout. The plot is both creative and original, making it a standout in its genre. While the film is compelling, I believe the runtime could have been trimmed slightly to maintain a tighter pace, which would have enhanced the overall experience. Additionally, a bit more focus on character development-particularly exploring the motivations of one of the main characters earlier on-could have added an extra layer of depth to the story.

The acting, for the most part, was a highlight, with several strong performances that brought the characters to life. However, the portrayal of the wife felt a little over the top at times, which momentarily pulled me out of the movie's otherwise immersive atmosphere. Even so, the film as a whole delivered an entertaining and memorable journey, showcasing a creative approach to storytelling that deserves recognition.

Demise is a movie that makes you uncomfortable in a good way. I found it compelling, shocking and a well oiled emotional train wreck you can't look away from. I found the acting fantastic, especially that of Liz Fenning, the actress who played Celine. I was invested in the story from beginning till end and found this not so typical complicated love story to be sexy, edgy and realistic. Demise is not your average cookie cutter romantic thriller and that's what sets it apart and makes it good. I thought direction was great, the cast, music. All of which bundled together in superb editing makes "Demise" a psychological rollercoaster that is unforgettable.
