Review of The Devil's Chair (2007) by Danielle J — 27 May 2010

The dialog goes from being OK to "Best thing I pulled out of my lit notebook" in .3 seconds. One minute, the narrator (Nick west) is boring, the next, he is waxing philosophical about his condition, his life, the people who surround him.

The writer was a talented guy at points. the atmosphere is decent all through, but I think the real show stopper is our main character who is just creepy enough to be Jason Statham's pedophile brother but still have your pity somehow.

He really, to me, made the movie. the plot through the first 3/4s of the movie was a little boring, and the "antagonists" were hollow characters, but maybe that more plays into the ending than the characters themselves.

Overall, I'd say it's a rent cause it is a pretty decent gore flick, but when you know where it's coming from and the "why for" it kind of loses it's value.
