Search: Starring Shawn Ashmore

Aarniokoski shows real flair for staging visceral, splattery action.

The trouble is that for all its visual elegance, Anderson Falls features some clichéd dialogue and leaden delivery.

For the first hour or so of its runtime, Devil's Gate smoulders with tension, piling on one horror after another as its spins out its central mystery.

There’s no room here for the simple morality of the average horror film.

Funny and frightening from start to finish, with a set of memorable characters and powerful performances that do them the justice they deserve.

Laura Ramsey, in particular, is atrociously bad as the increasingly hysterical Stacy, so that one sometimes wonders if she's deliberately taking the piss.

What's good about director Bryan Singer's approach is that he respects the material and so do the actors. There is not a whiff of parody.

What makes this film so enjoyable is the chemistry that holds its ensemble together.

A lot of the scenes seem stilted, or rushed, and there are very few memorable lines.
