What it's about:
In 1989, emergency responders received a 911 call from Maria Rossi, confessing that she had brutally killed three people. 20 years later, her daughter, Isabella seeks to understand the truth about what happened that night.
She travels to the Centrino Hospital for the Criminally Insane in Italy where her mother has been locked away. She tries to determine if her mother is mentally ill or demonically possessed. When she recruits two young exorcists to cure her mother using unconventional methods combining science and religion, they come face-to-face with pure evil in the form of four powerful demons possessing Maria.
Many have been possessed by one; only one has been possessed by many.
What the critics thought:
"From the amateur acting, writing and directing to an ending that is shocking only in its stupidity, The Devil Inside will make you puke for all the wrong reasons."
- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
"People of the world: If you find some footage, leave it be. You will likely be doing the rest of us a huge favour."
- Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times
"Clearly, when a cheapie pickup like Paranormal Activity, which Paramount released a few years ago, turns into franchise gold, there's just no stopping the banality."
- Manohla Dargis, New York Times
