10pm - Devil - dir. John Erick Dowdle - Starring: Chris Messina, Bojana Novakovic
Remember the guy who made The Sixth Sense and then Unbreakable and then Signs? Remember he then got crap? Well, he's in the producer's chair this time around, and it's the best decision he's made in years. He hands the directing reigns over to a couple of up-and-comers who hit the ball out of the bark with this tense, taught thriller that asks "what would you do if you realised the Devil was in the elevator with you.. and the lift had broken down midway up a skyscraper?" Bam, that's one scary-ass concept right there.
Thankfully, clocking it a crazy fast 80 minutes, this is one horror / thriller that doesn't outstay its welcome. It's been included in this Movie-Fest because it's got fantastic cinematography, awesome music and an ambience that most modern horror films are sorely lacking. Check out the trailer below:
