I always watched movie at
Theater but on this film I took different approach. I bought the DVD first then
watch it. Perhaps it’s because I was too busy to go to the cinema but then it
might be cause by that little bored feeling I had, so I thought it might be
more fun for me if I watched it in my nice shitty room alone...in the
dark...Well, I have to say, my decision was good considering Demonic was really
quite right movie to did that...
A brutal murder happened in
some house in Louisiana and Detective Mark Lewis who’s in charge to examine the
crime scene was co-operates with psychologist names Dr. Elizabeth Klein.
Together, they investigate John, the survivor in that tragedy, to find his
pregnant girlfriend and their friend, Bryan, which still missing. John told
them that it caused by occult activity they’ve done inside the house, and many
spirit which he and his friends had call try to kill all of them.
The scenes went into two
different plots, one consisting Lewis and Klein’s interrogations to John and
police investigation on video types which they found in the house and the other
showing what really happened before the accident when John and other visitor
came to the house and experiencing weird thing including paranormal activities
during their visit, for an instance, I like to see
the-upside-down-hanging-cross-on-the-wall scene, it was cool to see how the
cross was back to its upside down position after Jules put it on the right way,
though it doesn’t mean I like the cross hanging in such way...
Later the police found Bryan
and tracking him down until he was cornered in some convenience store. There
Mark Lewis had to shoot him down because Elizabeth said that Bryan was doing
something to hurt John, who separated within several miles away, in mystic
ways. They both think that Bryan was possessed by demon and doing all the
killing. But Mark Lewis found out the truth after he found secret space in the
house and revealed the answer.
What is the answered? Well, you’ve
should watch this movie on yourself, first, so you will be agree with me when I
told that this movie is really cool, it’s not just contains the horror but also
thriller, the tense, and little bit mystery that force you to think where’s
Bryan and Michelle were taking and who’s behind all that matter...and the
answered...I assured that you will get the unexpected answer....
What I want to share with you
from this movie it’s not only about its cool stuff, but how James Wan and Will
Canon put their joke on the scene. And I do like smart joke they’ve made. And
again, I will skip the joke if I watch this movie on Cinema, not on DVD,
because I can’t pause the scene which running in short time normally.
It was during the scene where
Dr. Klein was investigating the meaning of circular seal symbol on a computer. She
brought up an article on the internet which emerge my curiosity what was said
by the article when I read the blog address something like these,
“Notevenarealblog”...make you wonder as well, right? And after I stopped it, it
said, “The seal of the left hand path is an occult symbol that means all sorts
of plot relevant things...”
Till this point it had the
right issue but I laugh very loud on the next words, “...soon to be revealed to
the audience in dialogue because God knows, this screenshot won’t play for long
enough for everyone to read it. Unless they pause, but let’s hope they don’t...” or perhaps you can see it on yourself here...
I’m sure Maria Bello who read
this kind of article must be laughed during her act, and I’m sorry guys but
I’m afraid your wishes would not come true after I put this on my
blog...despite that Demonic was indeed a very good horror movie so far in 2015...who can resist terrified movies that had good sense of humor in it, anyway?
