George Salazar This film is very strong, it has such a solid approach, sure it's a very used plot, but this film makes it very original. It's creepy, original, funny, suspenseful, real, thrilling, The plot is great, the acting is pretty good. Rose McGowan is an amazing actress and brings the Debbie Strand character to life in the most real, strong, and graceful way. Rose basically made this film. It's easy to like Debbie Strand, yeah she's an obsessed psychotic crazy chick, but at the same time, you kind of like her and feel bad for her at times, you can relate to her at times. It's cool how she's like a hot bad girl. It's awesome how it starts out like a small school-girl crush, then slowly turns deadly. The only thing, it'd be nice to see some more action and death scenes. Still a great film, and the score just couldn't get any better, it sounds so artist-like beautiful. It also sounds chilling and creepy at the right times. Let's not forget Rose is HOT! I give it a 10/10, don't pay attention to people who trash the film, give it a chance anyway. I definitely recommend.
guil fisher Hard to believe so many liked this awful flick. Plot was usual stalker stuff, no surprise there. Stalker being an unattractive teeny bop-per who chases her teacher, a typical LMN leading man that is clueless to all around him. Sir, this bimbo is killing people all around you. This is so unreal as to believability. People missing and two detectives are going around trying to trace a fire years back. One by one this homely bitch does away with her competition. Won't tell you who although I'm tempted just so you won't have to sit through this trivial.Doesn't the neighbor realize their son is missing? That no one sees the grandmother around, etc, etc. Rose McGowan was dreadful and far from attractive for this viewer to believe anyone would want her even for a conversation. Dressed to the nines in short skirts and bras, she's supposed to be a turn on to the guys. Doesn't seem to do her much good. Alex McArthur as the teacher unfortunately had to deal with a stupid plot and equally stupid actress. J C Brandy as his girl friend did much better and brought some reality to force. Peg Shirley as the grandmother was so overacted you had to laugh at her. All others were lost in a losing movie with a loser playing the leading lady. Forget it.
caa821 I hadn't seen this movie in the nearly 10 years since issued, and only caught it by accident. A friend's wife is a fan of Rose McGowan, and had recorded it. I saw it with them while visiting, and was frankly fascinated.The young lead actress whacks more people - family or romantic rivals - than Pesci and his cohorts in "Goodfellas," or the typical button-man in the Corleone family.The loopy, religiously-fanatical grandmother is beyond belief, even knowing that such religious nuts are out there. However, few could ever be this singularly-minded without a trace of humanity whatever. But most fascinating to me, after looking-up the lead actress, with whom I was completely unfamiliar, is her real-life versus this portrayal.Although a high-schooler here, with some admittedly great social problems, in actuality the actress was in her mid-20's, and then in a long-term relationship with, of all people, Marilyn Manson.Of course, actors frequently play characters younger or older, and different from their actual personas. In fact, this is perhaps the essence of "acting." However, in this instance, it stretches credibility beyond the limits (she's actually old enough to have completed high school, obtained a Ph.D. and already spent a couple of years in the workforce). But this simply adds to the fascination of this deliciously trashy presentation. The supporting characters add to the proceedings: the handsome jock pursuing her carries his football with him, and the insignias on his letter jacket would indicate an athletic prowess on the order of Jim Thorpe's - but he comes across like one of the nerds from "Happy Days," but with a more evidenced libido towards the flick's anti-heroine; the two detectives appearing throughout are amiable dunces, a quality not unknown for cops in this genre; and the teacher/hunk is somewhat laconic and a little clueless, also not an unknown quality among "Lifetime" leading men.Nonetheless, Rose deserves high praise and some sort of award for this portrayal. She displayed more diversity and skill with a wide variety of weaponry, and dispatched her targets with more efficiency, and Stallona did as Rambo, in "First Blood." And she made Sly's character seem almost restrained by comparison.
sweetcyodine Rose McGowan is a killer in this movie in several ways. Her character's mannerisms and style are to die for. It's true that Rose McGowan does outshine the rest of the cast, but what's a sneaker next to a stiletto anyway? I think that this movie is an Oscar worthy for the b-rated films category and other glitter gutter trash. If you have affection for cheesy horror flicks where the devilish temptress may or not get her way then watch this movie. And if anything it's enjoyable to watch her slay her next victim. So, if you get the chance snag "Devil in the Flesh" its good till the last drop. (By the way one of my favorite parts to this movie is the beginning.)
