Shame the Devil

This movie was so boring and stupid that it hardly deserves two stars. But since it was a notch better than Agent Jade Black and The Turning, it gets two stars. Deep down, I'm embarrassed about it.

While the setup can keep an attention span engaged for the first half of the film, it is the latter half where the script rides off the rails with improbable plot devices like poisons, antidotes, and polygraph-triggered lock boxes. Like many fictional serial killers, the maniac of "Shame the Devil" has a diabolical plan so ludicrous that even the detective and the profiler cannot pinpoint if he is killing violators of the Ten Commandments, men with the first names of Jesus' apostles, or following some other whacked out methodology entirely. Looking back on it when all is revealed, you realize that it is the most ridiculously overcomplicated scheme ever devised to accomplish what the objective ultimately is.

What is it with me the last weeks seeing flicks that i didn't like at all and let this one be filed under that name, a real shame. To be honest, it's the name Doug Bradley that attracted me but face it, he's just the voice that you hear off camera. So don't think that you will see Doug in this flick, you will never will except for a few seconds.

The opening of Shame The Devil did ring a bell, did anyone of you geeks has seen the Saw franchise well then you will recognize the rip-off. But okay, I could live with that fact. But once things go wrong it goes awry wrong with this flick. You just couldn't care if someone survives or die or what is going on. While I was attending this flick I picked up a few times the remote to skip or even stop this nonsense.

There's no gore or horror to spot after the opening sequence. It's just a lot of blah blah and for the viewer a lot of yawning. Shame the director and sad to say, shame Doug!

Poor script, weak and inexperienced acting, unforgivable direction skills....the list goes on....the cameraman managed to shoot it in focus but the weird inserts during a poor edit did little to save this awful production. I'm sure someone, somewhere would have gained from this dire movie...except of course us. How on earth did they manage to raise the three million dollars to make this? It uses techniques from other more successful films to give it a big budget feel a d fails at every level. Its a great pity that a British film made in 2013 avoided using experienced people, what a shocking waste of an opportunity to do something memorable.

Some joker gave this garbage 10 stars and wrote a review how fantastic it was , dude just wait until you see the saw movies you will freaking levitate

This is of course a idea stolen from saw , even if people say its not but it is , and that subject is drained , you cant do much more of it , its stupid even try, but for the one who like that kind of movies well this is for you

This is a bit boring, bad direction and the story dont work , what is good then , well the acting is pretty ok actually , and some good looking girls , but thats it on the plus side

Also the headcharacter is annoying, one of these guys who screams all the time.
