I really wanted to like this film but it just kind of devolved into another messy, dream maybe, supernatural maybe, serial killer mish mash with some very unbelievable scenes that keep the story going.
The first 50 minutes or so has some bizarre scenes to kick the theme of the film off, but very unlikely, unbelievable situation or two.
Sophie Austin is the main character of the film supposedly easily seduced by a demon character when her and her newlywed husband car breaks down.
So for about 50 minutes she is ordered to kill various people or pick somebody to kill to apparently gain strength as a demon herself.
Then there is a prolonged, dark close-up talking sequence that runs at least 7-10 min. Between Sophie's character and the dark haired demon.
The film then shifts and picks up steam for the last almost 40 min. Of film but also becomes more unbelievable, weird, and non sensical as she enters a night club and does a few more kills from there. Runs into a male character at night, then the same character by chance the next day or two who somehow "scares" her though she seemed in complete control up until that point. The weirdness continues for a few short scenes the last 10-15 as the film goes into it's climax and is a bit of a let down all around.
They could have done a bit more besides trying to throw the story all around and all over the place and leave you kind of wanting more and being disappointed at the same time. Maybe it would have been a bit more cliche then, but hopefully a bit more resolved and fulfilling also.
