Devil's Due Is Not Scary But Worth A Watch


The 411 by Maria:

As soon as the opening scene starts I remembered the trailer. A guy sitting in an interrogation room all bloody looking down while he is asked questions about his wife's death.

Samantha and Zach are on their honeymoon when they find a taxi to go back to the hotel. The driver talks them into heading to an underground place for some more partying. They reluctantly say yes and eventually wake up unsure of how they even got to their hotel room. (My husband and I were yelling at the TV at this point. "Stop, the guy needs a flash light to enter the building! Why are you still following him, RUN Forest Run!") We, the viewer, see them being carried to a satanic symbol on the floor.

Sam soon finds herself pregnant even with birth control pills. Eventually strange things start happening. Sam has a craving for raw meet and devours it literally at the meat counter in a super market. She gets nose bleeds and her back is completely bruised and she has super human strength whenever she feels she is threatened.

Eventually they notice people watching the house and camera are installed in the home but I still don't know by who. At a friend's communion the priest starts spitting up blood during the ceremony. We see Sam's eyes turn red!

During this time Zach is slowly investigating symbols, visiting the priest and even sees the cab driver at the church. Eventually he for some reason breaks into a house where he sees footage of his own home. He is nearly stopped but races back to his home to find Sam screaming in a pool of blood with her belly cut open. He watches at the cab driver and doctor take the baby and he is arrested for the murder of his wife!

Interesting story. Not scary. I love that the story was told through the camera. Throughout the movie Zach is filming everything. Makes it seem more documentary then movie.

The scariest scene to me was when a little girl enters the nursery looking for her aunt and Sam steps out of the shadow to say "get out". This is kind of a Rosemary's Baby but better!
