After a mysterious night on their honeymoon, Zach and Samantha
McCall (Zach Gilford, Allison Miller) find themselves dealing
with an earlier-than-planned pregnancy. While recording everything on video for
posterity, Zach begins to notice odd behavior in his wife that they initially
attribute to nerves, but it soon becomes evident the disturbing changes to Samantha’s
body and mind have a much more sinister origin. Directed by Matt
Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, part of the quartet of filmmakers known as
Radio Silence (V/H/S), and produced
by John Davis (Chronicle), Devil’s
Due utilizes a found footage-style of storytelling to deliver an
emotional, character-driven thriller that showcases supernatural scares, and
disquieting dread.
MY REVIEW
Last weekend I spent the night cuddled up in bed, popcorn in hand, ready
to be scared straight with the newly released horror movie, Devil’s Due. Both the hubby and I are huge horror movie fans. I like to be scared and shocked. The movie really mimics the “found footage” kind of horror film
similar to what you’d see in Paranormal Activity or The Blair Witch Project. The storyline is near-identical to Rosemary’s Baby, but with a few exceptions. There wasn't too many big plot twists or surprises but it was a pretty straight forward scare.
Disclosure: All opinions are my own. I received Devil's Due on blu-ray at no cost for the purpose of this review. No other compensation was received.
