Welcome to Salty Popcorn - my site dedicated to expressing my opinion on films. Most of the reviews I read in the paper make me angry that they are either all so negative or I completely disagree with them. So now it's my turn. I hope you enjoy it and if you do sign up for updates on the left hand side. Thanks for stopping in!! Also, be sure to check out my other blogs www.sydneytable.com and http://www.orble.com/total-randomness/ PLEASE NOTE: My scoring of films is now based on an "Out of 10" score. The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed. Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)

Trailer 1 of the Day: DEVIL

This looks awesome but then so has every trailer for a film M Night Shyamalan has been involved in. He has produced this one and this is more reassuring than him directing. He is a walking film disaster in my opinion.

Drew Dowdle, John Erick Dowdle, Devil trailer


But still, that being said, I still like the look of this trailer. The premise is possibly ludicrous and I cannot see it being a long film. A group of people enter a lift, they are all different people of varying cultures and personalities and the creepy thing is one of them is the real dark lord himself, the DEVIL. Lights go out, we see hideous creatures in flashing reflections from the mirrors, someone gets cut, another bitten and then knives are drawn.

The production qualities look good and it is directed by Drew and John Erick Dowdle who brought us Quarantine, a film I finally got to watch last Friday, but am yet to write a review until I watch [REC] which look more like the original version of this story.

DEVIL stars no-one I know and I am placing my money on the devil being the old woman - it is something Shyamalan would do.

"The Night Chronicles"? Are you kidding? That is too self-important for words.
As good as the trailer might appear, I'm sure this will end up another piece of Religious Night Crap. I mean, he wrote the damn thing.
I really enjoyed Quarantine though. Particularly as a remake.
Yeah, the old woman. But then again, that's probably Night's Red Herring. The Devil is probably the elevator itself.

Night Chronicles is actually the name of the production banner/company in which the films are made.

Yeah, trailer looks really good but not a big fan either. Too bad cuz the premise looks amazing. Could be excellent in the right hands but will still probably see it. I guessed "The Village" I think it was called, like 1/2 hour into it, lol.

The Night Chronicles is still kind of funny for his production company name. LOL Bryn - the lift as the devil - I can see that happening - it will take them through the floor of the planet at the end and deliver them to hell. I like it more now

The Village was my last enjoyable Shyamalan film BA!!

I won't judge it too much until I have seen it but at this stage me thinks the trailer looks great.
