I Trapped the Devil
The Devil AND Christmas? Those are a few of my favorite things.
The only part that bothered me was the fact that this movie should have only been about 15 minutes long because the minute your insane relative admits to having someone/something/some demon locked up in the basement, you fake both a smile and an incoming phone call and you get the everloving fuck out of there. That’s it, that’s your only option.
But other than the rest of the movie being totally frustrating because WHY DID YOU STAY YOU DUMB STUPID IDIOT, the movie itself was so beautifully styled and atmospheric, and I’ll be damned if I wasn’t on edge basically the entire time. I actually felt moments of legitimate fear and dread, and that hasn’t happened in a long time (from a movie at least, I feel both those things every morning before work). 471
