Night Shyamalan is the first of the \u201cNight Chronicles\u201d\u2014 his trilogy of films involving the supernatural in modern society.<\/p>\n<p>Shyamalan\u2019s reputation is that of as many let downs as there are plot twists. Following his summer flop, The Last Airbender,\u00a0<em>Devil<\/em>\u00a0is an exquisite, suspense-filled ride, full of twists and turns. It leaves viewers questioning their own humanity.<\/p>\n<p><em>Devil<\/em>\u00a0follows five individuals burdened with a past of evil deeds. Ben (Bookeem Woodbine) is a security guard with a violent past; Vince (Gregory Arend) is an unfair salesman with a history of stealing large sums of money from his clients; Jane (Jenny O\u2019Hara) is an old woman who has mastered the art of petty theft; Anthony (Logan Marshal-Green) is an ex U.S. marine who has a history dealing with death and Sara (Bojana Novak) is a con-artist who marries rich men just to divorce them and take their money. They all board the same elevator and unbeknownst to most of them, one is Satan himself.<\/p>\n<p>The story follows the fictional Hispanic legend of Lucifer taking human form to torture the souls of the dammed before he takes their life.<\/p>\n<p>Five people gather in an elevator which gets stuck in between two floors. When the lights flicker, strange events begin occurring in the cover of darkness. As we learn about each character\u2019s pasts, it becomes obvious that their meeting is no accident. After all the torture, the devil himself finally reveals himself in a shocking turn of events. The entire perspective of the story changes and we are left with the question, \u201cis there a devil in all of us?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This film is Shyamalan\u2019s first movie since his 2002 hit\u00a0<em>Signs<\/em>\u00a0and truly achieves what it sets out to accomplish. The film itself draws one in such a way that you feel as if you are one of the unfortunate passengers of elevator six.<\/p>\n<p><em>Devil<\/em>\u00a0is arguably the best horror film since\u00a0<em>Paranormal Activity<\/em>. If you look behind the theatrics to see the deeper meaning, it\u2019s probably Shyamalan\u2019s best movie yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Devil, the latest film by M.
