A Demon Within is the newest surprising success in independent horror. While the story is familiar, the likable characters, emotional and thematic depth, and intensity make it an experience worth having. A Demon Within isn’t only trying to scare you, it also deals with grief and moving on from it. I think that anyone who has lost someone can strongly relate to this film. The scares are also effective because of how music, camera movement, and point of view shots are used. I would strongly recommend A Demon Within to anyone looking for a scary, romantic, entertaining and emotional time.

A Demon within is able to do a lot with its relatively low budget. The music, the lights, and the sound captivates you in those especially tense scenes. The cast does an adequate job in portraying a rather interesting story. Some may say it takes much of its story from previous films like “The conjuring” or “The Ring”, however, I believe it has plenty of interesting twists to set itself apart. It is a good watch for any independent film fan.

A Demon Within was a refreshing horror movie built with tons of twists and suspenseful eerie scenes! I especially loved how well the effects were done in this film! Often times, it is difficult to find a horror film that has amazing realistic effects…”A Demon Within” definitely nailed it! Packed with an amazing cast including Charlene Amoia from “How I Met Your Mother” and Clint Hummel from “Blood and Redemption”, this movie does not disappoint! Totally watch this movie, it is not one to miss out on!
