WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Console best movie i've ever seen.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
James-Bancroft A film that thinks it would be a good idea to copy Saw, then try to copy s7ven (but work through the 10 commandments instead!)Very predictable, very repetitive and absolutely nothing new.From the opening rip off scene to the closing "twist" this film fails to present the viewer with any innovation.I am not sure how I made it to the end. I suppose I wanted to see how they could fit the deaths in associated with the ten commandments. They didn't even manage that!This film would be good if you were playing cliché bingo. You would have a full house after 30 minutes. Lead cop taken off the case and continues to investigate it ... You know the score.Avoid.
dylangoddard69 The worst film ever made. Awful acting, and even worse plot. The first 6 minutes are OK-then you are plunged into a tortuous display of poor poor acting of the poorest type & omg the continuity issues too!!! I reckon real actors weren't interested in this film-neither were 2nd rate actors-neither were 3rd rate actors like ex EastEnders & I'm a celebrity get me out of here losers. To the director-you should be ashamed of yourself-please hang your head in shame-shame on you! It says on the front of the DVD -British version of Saw-i'd say Appalling British version of Saw! I'm only telling the truth...to shame the devil. Don't waste 90 minutes of your life on this.
trashgang What is it with me the last weeks seeing flicks that i didn't like at all and let this one be filed under that name, a real shame. To be honest, it's the name Doug Bradley that attracted me but face it, he's just the voice that you hear off camera. So don't think that you will see Doug in this flick, you will never will except for a few seconds. The opening of Shame The Devil did ring a bell, did anyone of you geeks has seen the Saw franchise well then you will recognize the rip-off. But okay, I could live with that fact. But once things go wrong it goes awry wrong with this flick. You just couldn't care if someone survives or die or what is going on. While I was attending this flick I picked up a few times the remote to skip or even stop this nonsense. There's no gore or horror to spot after the opening sequence. It's just a lot of blah blah and for the viewer a lot of yawning. Shame the director and sad to say, shame Doug!Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 1/5 Comedy 0/5
bowmanblue If you claim to be even just a mild fan of the horror genre then you probably know about the 'Saw' films by now. From the opening scene in 'Shame the Devil' you'll probably be thinking, 'Oh, this is a Saw rip-off.' And you'd be right. Although, maybe Shame the Devil isn't anything like Saw at all, because the Saw franchise was well-done and successful whereas Shame the Devil is total rubbish.Sorry to be blunt, but there isn't much going for this film. It's a British version of Saw, only nowhere near as good on any level.Yes, it's a horror film and anyone who's ever watched one probably isn't expecting amazing performances from the characters. However, the actors here take bad acting to new levels. In fact, sometimes the performances are so bad that you could be excused for thinking that they're a bunch of students, playing at being professionals.However, maybe I'm being a little unfair on the actors. They really don't get much to work with. Every line they're forced to speak is filled with clichés and sounds like it's been copied and pasted from one generic cop movie or another. With acting and dialogue like this it makes it impossible to care for any of the characters as they sort of bumble about, trying to catch a killer who's hell-bent on making his victims confess to their darkest secrets or murdering them if they lie.Simple verdict: don't bother. There's absolutely nothing positive about this film at all (with the possible exception of the quite breath-taking establishing shots of London, which I found quite nice!).http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
