Allison Miller in a scene from Devil's Due (Twentieth Century Fox)
What it's about:
After a mysterious, lost night on their honeymoon, a newlywed couple finds themselves dealing with an earlier-than-planned pregnancy. While recording everything for posterity, the husband begins to notice odd behaviour in his wife that they initially write off to nerves, but, as the months pass, it becomes evident that the dark changes to her body and mind have a much more sinister origin.
What the critics say:
Throw in an abandoned house in the neighborhood that is suddenly occupied, a vanishing obstetrician and a first communion ceremony that goes terribly wrong, and the chill factor quickly rises.
- Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic
A disjointed and unconvincing movie that is also embarrassingly derivative of Paranormal Activity.
- Rafer Guzman, Newsday
Dredging up horror movie favorites like random nosebleeds, a traumatized priest and a mama-to-be with a yen for raw meat, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett direct with competence but a dispiriting lack of originality.
- Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Offers precious little in the way of real scares or engaging characters, and even less in original ideas.
- Andrew Barker, Variety
