Devil's Knight

This is a fun movie with cool fxs and creatures- not to mention a star studded cast including Eric Roberts, Daniel Baldwin, Kevin Sorbo and Angie Everhart - lots of great gore, great costumes and set pieces they actually filmed at a castle in the US that's pretty cool another home run from Mahal Empire and team! Well done cinematography by the legend Michael Su... a lot of other familiar faces from a team that constantly puts out great content and something a little different each time. If you're ever wanting to break into movies this is a great group to start with keep an eye out for their crowdfunding campaigns and help them back their next projects! Keep making them guys and we'll keep watching!

I can't believe how much i been missing these types of films. It has a great story, interesting characters, and a little surprise twist. I hope this studio continues to grow and provide great entertainment. The actors did a pretty great performance, and the special effects & monsters are done pretty well. It's been far too long since we actually seen real quality films. Its been a long time seeing such a great cast assemble to deliver such a high level of entertainment. This is what Hollywood movies have been missing out on paper overing their films thinking a large budget and CGI can fix a broken script and poor directing.

For all the wrong reasons, this is one of the most painful movies that I have watched with Kevin Sorbo in since Hercules.

One thing that gives this movie any merit, is the fact they have a female heroin that wields a sword better than any men.

But this fact only makes the rating go up 5 steps .. from -10. Then some extra plus for some of the lighting and some to the props department. Making the total rating a 1 star, and that being very kind.

I think if you don´t expect anything, or even expect the worst kind of fantasy you´ve seen since Atlantic Rim, then the disappointment will not be as bad.

But after the Mythica franchise, I thought that Kevin S could not sink very much lower from his former stardom.

What about the plot?' Well, veteran warrior sits down with a travelling bunch of people and tell a story of monsters, sceming, poisoning and kings (a kind of monsterHamlet-story).

But if you expect anything to be even close to good fight scenes, special effects or make-up ... you will cry yourself to sleep after less than the introduction gives away.

If this movie was done with 0 budget, I would still think they overpaid the FX department.

Please Kevin, don´t sink down as Bruce Willis did and make worse and worse movies until you can´t speak.

Give us the chance to remember what adventures you had in your early years,

"This could have been so much better" was what my overall initial thought process was throughout this entire fantasy movie. It tried and for a low budget production it ticked most of the boxes, yet somehow I couldn't help but feel disappointed and unsatisfied with the Final Cut. Devil's Knight by Adam Werth is predictable and half-baked most of the time. There were some scenes I had to scratch my head at and the the action scenes were badly edited and cheorgraphed. Felt like I was watching a power rangers episode from the 90's. This definitely isn't one of Mahal Empire's best films. Arena Wars is better.

In the middle of a massive war, the King of a small kingdom sends out for a group of professional monster hunters to help deal with a slew of monstrous creatures living in the woods that have been trouble for other hunters over the years and set out to finally kill the fabled creatures.

Overall, there's a lot to like with this one. One of the better aspects featured here is the strong and impressive setup that allows for a lot of solid period-set action. The main setup of the war throughout the kingdom involving a slew of creatures attacking their soldiers and holding the King under such duress that he sends for a group of monster hunters to stop the creatures leading to them working their way through the kingdom to finally take it out gives this a strong overall starting point. While we get tons of excessive characters and brief appearances along the way, the fact that there's a lot of great work here in getting the different relationships established not just within the Kingdom with the Royal Guard and the rest of the guards but also the monster hunters gives them some personality for later on. That provides the film with plenty of exciting battle scenes featuring the different groups battling the monsters or other threats in the area. Initially introduced fighting a horde of rebellious hooligans in a local bar and handling everything cleanly, their struggles against the different creatures in their struggle to get to the final creature terrorizing the local woods. This has some great action and bloodshed in the confrontations ranging from numerous sword battles against the creatures slicing them to pieces which offers up the gruesome make-up work on the various kills and the creature costumes used here with the different creatures shown to be distinct and memorable enough to be quite likable. These are all that work nicely here although there are some factors here that bring this one down. Among its biggest issues is the series of random, useless characters brought on board simply because the origin status requires a series of cannon fodder characters to be slaughtered. This has way too many people here that serve no purpose being either background characters in random scenes or just getting served up to the creatures to be slaughtered which leaves everything so cluttered that it takes a while to figure out what's going on. Taking so many one-shot figures or recurring characters that we're trying to keep track of in regards to what their purpose is in the kingdom as the simplistic main story here would have provided this with a lot to like only for the cluttered first half to make it a bit more troubling having these extra moments that aren't necessary here. The other factor with this one is the last act that manages to add in more than necessary here to be quite a confusing addition to the storyline. Slaying the main monster far too early than necessary and returning for a feast in celebration, it includes a rather bizarre storyline about the group getting taken prisoner after a duel and then forced to defend the castle from a secret monster held captive by a traitorous member of the cabinet that has a lot to like but it's tacked onto the film as if from a different movie entirely by just inventing problems for them to deal with for no reason. Combined with the somewhat obvious low-budget limitations present at times, these really hold it down.
