The Devils Forest

Moviecut—The Devils Forest

As a first review on this site, i am finding it a little sad it had to be this one. But this was the film i just finished watching ... hm. "The Devil Complex" what to say...it is quite simple 1) It lacked any sort of realistic storyline 2) The film did not do justice to the cast whatsoever 3) We never actually got to know anything about the characters,,,, 4) when we did get to scratch the surface of two of the three characters, i never did get to the bottom of why or how. 5) I never judge a film by its budget nor cast, as some of the best films i have seen have been of a low budget or funded by charity or organizations. Im not going to give anything away about this movie because there is nothing to give away. Its a walk through a snow fill forest ,, as beautiful as it is . After being told people go missing there , die there, or come out with illnesses (skin rashes). They go in with a camera (rip off blair witch maybe ?) and film what they might see with the help of a "guide". who is a strange man which i never understood a word of. He doesnt stay in the film for more than 15 mins,,, (like i say there is nothing to spoil and you have prob guessed why anyway). ok i will spoil it THEY ALL DIE,,, the end... Not more i can really say on this so i better list it as a spoiler review, just in case i upset anyone lol Thankyou for reading and i hope that in time my reviewing will get better,

What a horrible ripoff of blair witch. Like many commentors said, just follow your own foot prints?!?! And how many ff movies are going to end with someone being dragged away by something you cant see, not saying that happened here, just so I don't have to put that I have spoilers lol.... I love FF movies but their are SO MANY bad ones.

I COULD go on and on talking about what the director seems to have intended, but ....... why?! What I WILL say is this: As a film ... it tried!!! I .... umm .... I liked it, it was better than REwatching old 'Ancient Aliens' reruns for the 3rd time, but not by a whole lot!

Sometimes you often wonder how could anyone read the script of this movie and actually finance it like the other review if you were to take away the title you would think it was a nature program with three people walking through a snow covered forest there no action whatsoever just walking one thing that was unbelievable was how unprepared they were for the weather no camping gear no food no lighter nothing for even a day hike the girl had a back packing apparently she had nothing in it but books the movie a hour and half of 3 people walking in the forest basically were just going to walk forever without any provision the acting was horrible giving there wasn't any need for it since there was very little interaction between characters just yelling at times when out of the blue one of the characters would freak out and run from the other for no apparent reasons don't waste you time you would enjoy a bowel movement more than this hideous movie even what disaster strikes it was unbelievable you didn't see the assailant who I would assume another human being that was strong enough to hang them upside down in a tree no rhyme or reason why they were attacks who attack them and since it was a forest who could survive out there just waiting for people to walk through the forest to murder them unrealistic!

Wow...just wow. Every so often I come across a film that actually screams out for me to give it my lowest imdb rating of "3" {which is as low as I go while still trying to give a bit of respect for the work people undertook}. Yep...this one gets a "3"! And boy do I wish I could go lower than that. But no, I will stick by my own guidelines. Let's get right to the bottom line: this "film" is, no joke, nearly a shot by shot, sccene by scene ripoff of the modern classic Blair Witch Project. Honestly. They changed the location {Europe! Just like Chevy Chase did}. They added snow to a forest! They changed the gender of the creepy local to a guy and made him a total ditcher guide! Pretty much everything else is directly ripped off from BWP, including a tent confessional from a guy this time when things start going sideways. The only thing missing was a ripoff of Heather's fear snot... One could not possibly find a more effective way to waste one's time while watching this god-awful piece of garbage. Team Devil Complex: seriously...polish up those CVs...don't ever foist such crap on the world ever again, at least not until you go to night film school. There. I said it. Thus far as of May 2018, The Devil Complex is the absolute worst movie I have had the displeasure to watch this year. And there have been a few stinkers but none so far that has prompted me to write a warning review. Don't. Please...for the love of god...DON'T WATCH THIS DRECK...You're welcome...

Follows the typical format of a found footage film, and spends too much time not doing anything that adds to the plot. The very few events that do happen strike me as random and unexplained. I felt like I was walking in circles in a forest myself.

Two huge holes in the story (apart from all the other small holes): 1 - Why didn't they just follow their own footprints back instead of going deeper into the forest? 2 - What was so horrible that the professor had to kill himself in the beginning? No explanation whatsoever. Very bad film, very bad attempt of a Blair Witch Project in the snow, no scares, no suspense, nothing. Positive: beautiful scenery

Boring beyond the limits. WOW!!! Why???!!! Waste of time.

Spoiler alert! I've read a lot of stories about the Hoia Baciu Forest and was excited to see this movie... The beginning gets you pumped up, thinking you will see some awesome footage about ghosts or UFOs but it's all a lie! There are a total of 4 deaths that happen inside the forest, you don't see what kills them, as a matter of fact you don't see any phenomena at all. No ghosts, no strange lights, not even the crooked trees. The only thing they did keep in the movie that is the same as the real life legends is one of the characters gets a rash on his leg and the girl gets anxiety but you find out early in the movie she's had it all along and takes medication for it... Don't waste your time watching this.. specially if you have read stories and legends having to do with the Hoia Baciu Forest, I only watched it till the end to see if maybe some sort of lights or at least a ghost would pop out but nope, didn't happen.
