Devil's Domain

Loved the concept of he devil, and loved the girl playing the devil (Everything I always expected).

It's a relatable story about teen outcast who makes a deal with the Devil to make her pain go away in the most horrifying way.

Rap group, Onyx seems out of place in the movie. Not that the kids today would not love Onyx but you'd think they would select a younger group of rappers from the kids era to go to a concert to go see.

The music all together in this movie seems like a huge distraction. It does nothing to help the story and it's not blended in the background so you notice it and it does not make the film go smoothly.

Felt like a homage to Troma films then it took itself too seriously to be that.

The deaths started out campy but the the movie ended with a serious undertone of evil.

Too all over the place made it kinda dull instead of interesting.

Great Horror Flick with a very good female lead. It has a nice dreamy effect and the soundtrack is awesome. I do think this is Jared's best by far. The reaction by the bystanders while the girl gets plowed by a truck is classic. The scene with the Bass Metal project Luna 13 is very cool yet the opening chainsaw scene was epic.

I love to watch horror movies and only started watching this because some website mentioned the IMDb rating for this as 7.4 instead of 3.3. I knew the movie sucks after watching it for like 15 minutes but I have this thing where I can't leave a movie half- watched. Just want 90 minutes of my life back! My suggestion - save your 90 minutes!

Well, this was definitely something else.

The 2016 horror movie "Devil's Domain" started out quite nicely enough and seemed to have potential to be a worthwhile movie. So it seemed that writer and director Jared Cohn was on to something good here.

But then the movie took a turn for the worse and nose-dived steeply. The movie went from being interesting to being ludicrous in quite a short while. I am sure that if you look at "Devil's Domain" as a horror comedy, then the madness and the outrageous things that transpired on the screen would be all the more enjoyable. But I sat down to watch it believing I was in for a proper horror movie. So I have to admit that the turn of events to the storyline didn't really sit well with me.

The acting performances in the movie was a mixed bag of nuts. Some of the performances were actually good enough, taking into consideration the script and storyline; here I am thinking of Madi Vodane playing Lisa and being the lead actress. While other performances were just horrible and wooden; here I am thinking about Linda Bella playing Destiny, as her delivery of her dialogue was just toe-curling to behold.

Visually then I will say that "Devil's Domain" was actually good. The movie didn't make use of all that much of special effects, but the effects looked good and the design of the devil's appearance was actually interesting.

All in all, then "Devil's Domain" sort of fell short of properly entertaining me. Now, the movie is not all that bad, and it is indeed watchable. I am sure that there is an audience out there for a movie such as "Devil's Domain" from writer and director Jared Cohn.

My rating of "Devil's Domain" lands on a four out of ten stars.

Trigger warnings for scenes of self harm, and there's a rapey scene, because they're under a "spell" but it's not violent and there's no nudity for it. There's plenty of violence in other scenes but it's slasher style violence.

It's definitely a B-Film, but it's overall pretty good for one, it's not perfect, but it has some really likeable things. I think if you enjoy B-Film horror it could be pretty enjoyable. Especially some of the death scenes are really dumb and funny. My favourite is a girl getting murdered by a landline phone that is also burning her ear off.

The acting of the leads is pretty good, and I think the story is relatable from the point of view of an outcast girl, being horrifically bullied and wanting to get revenge.
