The Devil Conspiracy

" lucifer possessed woman on giving birth: my water broke.

St. Michael : huh.

Lucifer possessed woman : proceeds to shower him with hot steamy water giggling hahaha.

St. Michae: screaming with pain"

that's how it is .movie was good for having a few laughs . It looks like someone wanted to take a different route of the movie LEGION but ended up making a mess with budget hitting cgi and actors with relevance becoming so irrelevant with punchlines and endless chase . Its not a bad movie afterall if you enjoy the comedy in it but i do feel bad because the story had nothing to support with it just so happens like yeah we are gonna do this today and release lucifer just like that .

I mean no, its not award worthy, but I found it entertaining enough. Granted I went into it not expecting anything good. I actually expected to end up turning it off after a bit. I only gave it a shot because of 2 things.... Peter Mensah, and a weird scifi tastic sounding storyline.... While I was disappointed that Mensah didn't have more screen time I still found myself watching the whole thing and enjoying it. The music fit, and wasn't distracting and yes a lot happens in the dark... That's what TV settings are for people! Those are usually not set to optimal levels out of the box and almost always have to be adjusted. I had no problems seeing anything that happened. All in all it is definitely better than the low 4.5 rating. Is it a 10? Nope, although I was tempted to rate it as such to try and offset so many unjustly bad reviews... But I didn't. I did go ahead and give it a 6 although i really think its about a solid 5. For me ratings of 4 or less should be reserved for things with cringe worthy acting and/or cartoonish effects. They could have done more with the script, true. But all in all it was an entertaining watch that didn't run slow, it kind of hit the ground running and kept moving the whole time which works for me. It takes a special movie that can keep me engaged at a slow burn speed.

Taking hints from ROSMARIE BABY and THE PROFECY with added some genetic elements (using Christ DNA to recreate the Devil) seemed interesting; but sadly that was all. The rest of the script was very poorly made.

It is a pity; acting is not Oscar worthily but is decent.; actions scenes are not espectacular but decently filmed and some gore shots were well made. Not so much the digital effects.

I do not think it was budget issue; but the lack of imagination to finish what was originally a good idea.

In brief; do not lose you time; is not boring but not terrifying either; just a failed attempt to do something that could have been far better.

This first half of the movie was honestly really good - the concept and execution/build-up had me interested and hooked. I wanted to see more!

If the film had 'ended' there..at the half-point mark I would had given what I'd seen a solid 8/10. Much of it because of the great story/plot/concept.

But...then comes the second half....oh my... The twists and plot now changes to something very confusing, disappointing and near juvenile in writing. Such a shame this could have been a 7-8/10 rated movie for sure. Now...I'll net it down to a 6 - again, the plot is rather ingenious and the acting is really not too bad.

I saw the trailer for this and thought it would be the perfect way to blow time before dinner plans. I thought "oh cool, a Syfy channel original that's probably also secretly some kind of 'God's Not Dead' sermon-wrapped-in-a-movie. I love schlocky B-movies, and I was down for a bad time.

So wasn't I surprised when this movie is just like... pretty good??? The acting is not cringe or embarrassing like I was betting on, the SFX are not any worse than the worst Marvel SFX (Thor 2 anyone?), it's got some pretty gnarly action/gore, REALLY cool and original concepts, serviceable and not distracting music... What kind of B-Movie is this?? Even the sets were pretty good! The storyline is of course a bit ridiculous but it's also fun, and most importantly for movies in this lane, SALIENT. The story is like... ya know... cogent the whole time, which is refreshing for this kind of thing. I never felt lost, and I never felt bored.

Not to say it was all flawless or anything, there were a couple distracting establishing shots that were clearly someone's nephew messing around in Blender, some of the child-acting was a lil rough around the edges, a couple physical performances from minor characters/extras were a little less than convincing, but if you compare this to similar projects in its genre/budget, The Devil Conspiracy is basically the Citizen Kane of Tubi movies. I would be genuinely excited to see a higher budget sequel to this, and I'll definitely be on the lookout for Frankowski's next movie.

It has heart! It was clearly made with intention and care. Yes, at times it feels a little cheap, but it never ONCE feels lazy. Worth your time if you want a Supernatural Horror/Action movie.
