The Evil Within

This is a film about a young man with mental disabilities who is being toyed with by a demon that lives inside mirrors. The demon infects the man's dreams but also conveniences him to do unspeakable things by having conversations through mirrors. This isn't a bad film. I found it horrific because of the way spiders were used. I am an arachnophobic and was literally having to cover my eyes at times because it was so disturbing for me. I watch a lot of horror without ever being scared but if you want to see me jump and act scared for my life, just put me in close proximity of a spider and I will give you a show. This was also horrific and kinda sad in that it was the manipulation of someone with disabilities. However, evil roots itself wherever it can and showing that it can be found with this young man makes you think. This is a lower budgeted film but I thought it was acted and filmed well. I'm glad I took a chance on it even though the spiders were rough.

This is my first review after being with IMDb for much more than ten years. I don't like horror movies. And honestly I'm not stuck to the movie due to the plot, the visuals or the tension. I'm stuck to it due to the performance of its main actor: Frederick Koehler. Incredible, remarkable, overwhelming are just a few word for it. You have to see him acting! It's breathtaking!

With the story of The Evil Within you could definitely make a better movie. That was certainly not the bad part of the movie. It's just the execution, sometimes the acting, and the low budget they spent on special effects that make this horror movie just an average movie. Frederick Koehler as Dennis, the mentally handicapped boy, had his ups and downs with his character. Sometimes it was believable but sometimes it wasn't that good. The rest of the cast was just average as well. The soundtrack could also be much better for a horror movie. Sound effects are a major part of any good horror movie and here it lacks some good sounds. The creepy stuff was okay, sometimes even good, but with a bit more budget on those things it could have been much better. All in all it's not the worst movie I ever saw but it's definitely not a movie I would watch again in the future.

I came across this one because so many well known names of the genre are in this. Dina Meyer, Sean Patrick Flanery and Michael Berryman. Of course that doesn't say a thing about tthe flick but I went for it and even as some do tear this down I licked it very much. It's not your ususal horror flick because it do has almost no red stuff in it and the effects do remind me more of Asian horrors than the normal effects. For me the acting of Frederick Koehler as the retarded Dennis was top notch. He does play the retarded one as the vicious reflection in the mirror of Dennis. It's a slow builder but I was attracted to the screen from minute one until the end. Not you ususal flick but a very weird one full of mirrors and rare scene's.
