The Devil Inside
The
Devil Inside is a supernatural horror, based on real life events. The
documentary style film made around $100million, despite the fact it launched no
previews and quickly disappeared from the US box office top 10. The film was released
on January 6, 2012 and directed by William Brent Bell and written by Matthew
Peterman alongside Bell, and produced by Insurge Pictures hoping it would
replicate the box office success Paranormal Activity.
In 1999, Isabella Rossi (played by Fernanda Andrade) takes a
visit to an asylum in Rome, accompanied by a documentarian. The two are trying
to uncover the truth about her mother Maria Rossi (Suzan Crowley), who ten
years before murdered three people in an exorcism performed on her, and is
believed to be possessed by the Devil. On their journey, the pair are introduced
to two priests, Ben (Simon Quarterman) and David (Evan Helmuth) who accompany
them and show them an exorcism on another woman named Rosalita (Bonnie Morgan).
While trying to discover if the woman is mentally ill or possessed, she calls
Isabella by her name, despite never being introduced. As the film continues we
see Isabella speak to her mother for the first time since she was admitted into
the asylum, and learn several pieces of vital information about her mother and
her well-being. Against the Catholic
Church’s will, the priests perform and exorcism; does it go to plan? We learn the answer to that question in the
ending of the film, when we see how the characters react to what they’ve witnessed.
The film certainly scratches its audience head as they
question if the footage is fictional or genuine. Its ending has been said to be
like marmite – you either loved it or hated its use of cliff-hanger and abrupt
cut to the end credits.
