The Devil's Left Hand

The Movie Raid Review

Film: The Devils Left Hand

The story involves a seyonce in which the woman who contacts spirits suddenly gets an unexpected visitor and is let out.

Two couples that were apart of the seyonce start hearing and experiencing strange things even seeing them happen. It is revealed that Richie dead fathers spirit may have a part to play and relies on the help of the woman seyoncer and her partner to stop the evil spirit.

The story is a slow burn and involves returning faces from Harley Wallens past films . Yan Birch character is a large piece of the puzzle in this story giving a cold tone of his character.

The story does give suspense as to where or what this entity needs in order to fulfill its desire such as Richies mother and his friends but also struggling with dealing with his father. There are no quick easy ways given to kill off evil like many super natural films give an incentive for, the lead characters wing it and hope their methods work against this evil being.

I felt there should of been more connections with the other couple that attended the seyonce and being able to prey on their weakness of character than a creepy girl entity just feasting on souls before the last confrontation. It does feel somewhat offset such as when two girls are effected by this entity that kills their parents and runs to the main couple in story for refuge considering these characters make no real connection on the situation at hand.

It is a worth of a sit through if you want subtlety in a super natural film. Very little special effects involved and adds more physcho logical feel to the main entity and those surrounding it.

Not a lot of character development and seems fairly low-budget and some subpar acting, but the story line is great and there's a lot of build up, but then it just ends. There's no conclusion. It's like watching a tv show that ends on a major cliff-hanger, only there isn't another episode or sequel.

I was loving it up until it ended. Would have given it 7 stars but it honestly felt like they cut the last 15 minutes of the movie out.

It would have been a great mini-series instead of a movie. That would have allowed for more character development and an actual ending.

If you're into the occult and demon hunting, then I'd still recommend watching it but don't expect any kind of conclusion.

This movie has porno level production value. The sound has that tin can echo and a lot of scenes are over saturated. The script isn't that good and the acting isn't much but the story is interesting enough. So if you can put the quality aside, it's worth a watch if you like the genre

It hits all of the beats. The characters aren't very fleshed out but there is enough to understand what is going on.

Confused mediums is an interesting approach compared to the common all knowing wise person stereotypes most movies use.

The characters also don't always react in the same stereotypical ways. For example, seeing something in a mirror doesn't lead to the immediate turn around to an empty room.

I will admit i did not really get 'into' this movie.

I havent seen the agramon's gate everyone says this movie completely copied, but i will say the movie seemed to bore me a lot. But it is indeed trying to convey childhood traumas which is a good concept. I think they had this great concept but it just wasn't written well and then the acting had some average people but also a lot of really new people to acting.

All in all i congratulate them on finishing the project but at the same time - not to sound bad - but I am surprised this got released. I think it is good though because it was good practice for everyone involved but the actual merit as a movie itself is very .. well - it's not so great.

To be frank - anyone saying "this is good" is ... not to be trusted. And anyone saying "this is GREAT!" is ... insane.

I must say though - Aphrodite Nikolovski is very attractive and her voice was sensual - The star male's acting was by far the best but even he couldn't really seem serious with the script he was given. The music score was very good so i give it points for that - but as a movie itself it needed more work much more work - I can't really say much more.

If you like suspense, mystery, spooky and creepy mind games then I think you'll enjoy this. I saw Ash & Bone and I guess I kind of expected something similar and I'd say the only things similar was quality camera work., good acting and story and the music was really good! I'm not a fan at how much horror has changed to gross and disturbing effects with ridiculous kill counts has become the trend and so much is now completely void of a coherent story, intrigue and characters you actually care about.. it's a rare breeze of fresh air on what's lately been a stagnant pond of horror. Pro-tip: I saw it on Redbox incase you want to see it "free" since it's not free elsewhere.
