Yeah, I just went from "Meh, maybe I'll rent it" to "Avoid at all costs".

Once again, I am at odds with pop culture. The Jackass phenomenon escapes me. I am not amused by speed freaks squeezing salmon sperm into their mouths. Call me a square.

Am I the only one who is masochistically curious about Devil? I'm pretty sure it's gonna suck, but I can't help but feel intrigued. I'll read some reviews and the movie plot on Wiki and judge then, but it seems like an odd yet oddly interesting premise.

No, and I'll tell you why: Writer - M. Night Shyamalan

You're not even masochistically curious?

And he didn't actually write or direct it - just came up with the premise and basic story I believe. So it's got that going for it. And the reviews have range from "Best Film since Signs, which doesn't say much, but it's not terrible" to "No huge twist, decent plot, good acting, suspenseful and genuinely interesting."

Guess who wrote this Resident Evil review.
Afterlife opens with deceptively dark movie homages to Demy’s Umbrellas of Cherbourg…

If critics and fanboys weren’t suckers for simplistic nihilism and high-pressure marketing, Afterlife would be universally acclaimed as a visionary feat, superior to Inception and Avatar on every level.
