The Tempter

Unique movie, and scary as well. Eric Wolfgang Nelson who plays Baal, does an amazing job. In my opinion Benjamin Thomas the Writer, Producer and Director has a Hitchcock side to him, which I enjoyed. Some of the lighting is reminiscent of the 1940's and the story is really good. Bottom line is that you will enjoy watching this movie, it holds your attention all the way through !!

This movie kept my interest to the very end. If you are religious at all, you can't help but be curious. The subject of dealing with the devil is just terrifying. I like the scene changes and camera angles. Camera from behind the vent - scary and the haunted sounds. The character, Paul, I thought was a natural. Good acting. Don's character was interesting. I liked how his violin skills got better but creepy. Murphy was a great character. Setting was good in the older home in the city.

This is gem of a movie ----the characters are very believable ..Eric Wolfgang Nelson is scary -good as Ba'al satans right hand man ----his casual manner and dreadful demands were spot on --at one point in the film I had to look thru my hand because I didn't want to experience what I was seeing -that's powerful .....Baals makeup and costume was perfect- mesmerizing as this horror flick might be with a character like Ba'al ...being a musician myself I was completely drawn into Don and his new found talent on the violin ----his syren song is very effective ...watching the gradual madness overtake the characters was gut-wrenching and the timeline jumps are perfection .....the poor writer who is goofy and not able to talk to women is very engaging and I felt like I would have done very much the same thing -this is a fantastic indie film that deserves praise for what they accomplished ..I still brood and wonder if in reality this plays out a thousand times a day on our world unseen but not for those caught up in such a tragic horror as their time is short and there is no escape expect by.......... truly hoping this film brings some well-deserved notoriety to all involved in the film........Bravo !!

I was watched this a few times and every time it just gets better, a true cult classic. just doesn't get old.

As with many indies, budgetary restrictions are a given. But Benjamin Thomas overcomes this with an eye for setting and location, and a cast that works so well. As Baal, Eric Wolfgang Nelson exudes a quiet evil that is only evident once he gets his hooks into Don Bradley, played by Don Brandon. The rest of the cast works really well too, and some you will recognize from other features and national commercials. Benjamin brought them together with sharp editing, good sound, cinematography, and excellent location filming in St. Louis and the Ozarks. Netflix and Amazon have been streaming films of much worse quality for years, and Deal With The Devil definitely should be on your watch list. Help support independent film, you will be rewarded by the quality of talent out there waiting to shine.
