DEVIL'S BACKBONE (2001)

[asin: B0002747LW]
Positive Experience/Entertaining? Definitely. However, to me, as an American moviegoer, I found the plot to be a little scattered. I never really knew which character or storyline to follow. Still, it's a good film and while ghosts are in this film .
Technically any good? The FX were really solid. I felt the plot was a bit scattered, but still very easy to follow and often very riveting. The performances are incredibly good, even from the lead kid.
How did it leave me feeling? Very satisfied, but pretty depressed. This is a very violent film with a lot of people dying without a whole lot of time for the characters or you to absorb the deaths. This film is a tragedy that leaves you with a feeling of hope.
Final Rating? SIYL - See If You Like - this film is disturbing, so it's not for everyone, though if you're looking for a well-made film that makes you think and is a nice micro-history lesson, too, this is a movie for you.
