The best thing about 'The Evil Inside Her' is the cover, that looked suitably freaky. It is one of those rare films seen recently though that did not have much of a good concept or much potential going for it in the first place. Even from looking at the plot summary, no matter how semi-interesting the title of the film is, one knows that the film is going to be very silly, not very scary and muddled, so not good. See it for the title and as a low budget horror film completest, but very little else.
Despite how good the cover looked, it was not really enough to save 'The Evil Inside Her' from not being halfway watchable. Everything else is executed so dreadfully that 'The Evil Inside Her' is the complete opposite of that, starting off badly getting increasingly worse all the time with no signs of recovering. If one's gut instinct was to avoid the film, it is best to keep it that way unless you are very, very curious (the reason for seeing it in the first place when it appeared in the more like this section) like me.
First and foremost, 'The Evil Inside Her' looks shoddy. Especially the less than slick, sometimes barely coherent, editing and erratic photography. There is very little atmosphere in the lighting too. The music never seemed to fit, the tone could be wrong and fails to convey any kind of mood while the placement could also be inappropriate.
Can say nothing better about the script, which had no life or flow and tending to sound stilted and cheesy. The story can be pretty uneventful and often very dully paced, 'The Evil Inside Her' is not even a very long film and the story felt thin and too stretched out. There is nothing scary or suspenseful whatsoever, and a lot of the film doesn't even make sense and gets ridiculous.
All the cast give lousy performances, doing nothing to make us care for their predicament or make the characters likeable or interesting. The acting instead was worse than bland and could irritate. Then there is Eric Roberts whose performance is a mess of phoning in and scenery chewing, found nothing creepy about him and thought his character was written too obviously and nowhere near mysteriously enough.
In conclusion, awful. 1/10
