Diabolic

Elise is in a lavender relationship (she's really a lesbian) with her frustrated boyfriend. She's also an ex-member of a nutjob cult. The spirit of a witch has latched onto Elise thanks to her God-bothering brethren and now wants to possess her for all time. It's a rather peculiar story that doesn't really get off the ground. Instead, it offers up moments of genuine creepiness and minor revelations that are not that surprising. By contrast, acting from the lead, Elizabeth Cullen is enthusiastic, committed and borders on excellence. She really carries this rather offbeat film that's not up to the standard of performance she offers up. In summary, Diabolic isn't dreadful, but it's not going to win any accolades in the horror genre either. Its offbeat, rather odd story never really goes anywhere overly interesting, and the scares just don't quite make the grade.

I did not know that I found Mormons to be so scarey. I cringed when they said the name Jeffs. Evil makes you do dumb things. That's standard. So when the people do dumb things. It's because of the evil. Great creepy atmosphere. Not necessarily overused baddie but it looks a little terrifiering. Great to see a non-catholic horror. Nice tree shots. Diabolic.
