This is a very weird movie. Almost feels like exploitation. And while this is a hard sell, the way it is portrayed and played is really great. There are some holes in the plot and you might wonder about motives and actions of the main characters (especially the mother),but it all fits into the rhythm of the movie and the way it tells the story, no matter how out there it seems.

The acting is really good and for a small budget movie this really knows how to set the mood. This is something that some other movies miss out on. If you can dig that, you will also dig the abyss this movie opens from time to time. Ending something like this, is always a fine line. And I think they did a really good job here with that too ...

Married couple Felix (Francisco Barreiro) and Sol (Laura Caro) are on a road trip with their children, teenager Sara (Michele Garcia) and younger brother Adolfo (Alan Martinez),when they decide to pull over at a truck stop for a break; while the kids go off to explore a nearby hill, the father explores his wife's nether regions. Everyone's happy! But when the kids fail to return, the worried couple call the police, checking themselves into a local hotel while they wait for news. Luckily, the kids are found the next morning, but although they seem unharmed, there is something about their behaviour that doesn't seem right…

Heres Comes The Devil kicks off with two buck naked lesbians grinding their honey-pots together in a intense, sweaty embrace—a scene that has absolutely zero bearing on the plot, making it the epitome of gratuitousness. Having firmly ticked the sex box, the film quickly moves on to some equally gratuitous violence, with one of the aforementioned young women answering a knock on the door only to be met by several swift punches to the fizzog from a machete wielding maniac who, having rendered his victim unconscious, proceeds to chop off her fingers. The second lesbian fights off the attacker, who flees the scene. Neither lesbian is seen of or mentioned again.

This sensationalist approach continues throughout the film, with frequent sex and nudity for no good reason, and one grisly moment that is even more brutal than the face-thumping/finger-lopping; it's a good job too, as far as I'm concerned, because without all the bare flesh and nastiness I would have struggled to stay awake, such is the gloomy atmosphere and leaden pacing of this sombre supernatural horror from Mexican director Adrián García Bogliano (some have likened the film to the haunting classic Picnic at Hanging Rock, which I have yet to see, and probably won't for some time now thanks to the comparisons).

Bogliano touches upon several interesting themes, including sexual abuse, incest, and revenge, but in the end it all amounts to little more than a trite supernatural thriller told in a manner that is neither fresh nor interesting, with a final revelation that is as old as the hill that features so prominently.

Honestly i don't understand how it's possible that this movie at the moment got so many good reviews and a general decent response. The screenplay is just dull and the characters makes stupid things for all the time. Really. What kind of parent would leave their children go alone for a walk in the creepiest spot in the world while doing a quick bang in a car parked? Or again what kind of parent would bring their children to see who was supposed to be their harasser just after a psychologist have told them that their children needed support because they are experiencing a traumatic event? The movie is full with this kind of nonsense plot things, completely unnecessary nude scenes (like the lesbian scene at the start of the movie),plain dialogs and the ZOOMS. There are lots of zooms and all of them are really really annoying. In conclusion "Here comes the devil" it's just a mess, avoid it if you want to see a good horror movie, but if you are looking for a comedy keep it in mind because like "Manos:hands of fate" it's so bad that eventually you can even found it funny.
