Customer Reviews of The Devil's Rain
A CULT CLASSIC! THIS WAS AN HIGHLY ENTERTAINING MOVIE. IT HAD A CREEPY FEELING THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE. IT WAS, HOWEVER, QUITE SLOW! THE CREEPIEST THING ABOUT IT ALL IS THE FACT THAT THERE ARE DEVIL WORSHIPPERS THAT DO EXIST IN THE WORLD TODAY!
THIS MOVIE STARS ERNEST BORGNINE AND WILLIAM SHATNER AND IS ALMOST 90 MINS LONG.
IT WAS MADE IN 1975, HOWEVER IT WASN'T RELEASED UNTIL LATER.
THE ACTING IS FINE, AND THE STORY IS OKAY.
I MUST NOTE THAT THE LAST SEQUENCE OF THE FILM IS QUITE DISGUSTING AND THE EFFECTS ARE QUITE IMPRESSIVE FOR THE TIME!
THE PICTURE LEAVES A LOT TO BE DESIRED AND THE AUDIO TOO.
HOWEVER, IF HORROR MOVIES ARE YOUR THING AND YOU WANT TO SEE A MOVIE ABOUT SATANISM, THEN THIS IS THE MOVIE FOR YOU!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! THIS IS A CULT CLASSIC!
NOTE: THIS FILM WAS JOHN TRAVOLTA'S FIRST MOVIE, EVEN THOUGH YOU REALLY DON'T SEE HIM BECAUSE OF HIS SMALL ROLE!
SO, SIT BACK AND RELAX AS YOU WATCH THE DEVIL'S RAIN!
Bring your umbrella!
The Devil's Rain is another one of those neglected, yet enjoyable, seventies horror films. The cast is a camp lovers dream: William Shatner, Ernest Borgnine, Eddie Albert, Tom Skerritt, and, briefly, John Travolta. The film moves along at a break-neck pace as the battle between good and evil unfolds, never stopping for long exposition sequences. This is one of the reasons The Devil's Rain is so much fun, the viewer is immediately thrust into the action and the action never stops. The acting is over the top and it fits in perfectly with the crazy storyline. The make-up effects are decidedly creepy and proffesional in appearance, adding to the fun. The only negative has nothing to do with the film itself, but the DVD transfer. It is way too dark for a film shot mostly in darkness. This should not detract you from seeing this film and where else can you see Ernest Borgnine as Satan?
Not even Kirk, Airwolf, Barbarino, Green Acres can save it!
Having seen this movie panned over and over through the years I still couldn't believe it. I thought they must be biased because of the subject matter which might not appeal to many, and just had to see for myself.
Well, it turns out they were right after all.
The cast makes this one look more like a Made-For-TV movie that somehow mistakenly made it to the big screen: William Shatner post-"Star Trek", Ernest Borgnine before "Airwolf", John Travolta in a tiny non-speaking part somewhere around the time he broke into fame as Vinnie Barbarino on "Welcome Back Kotter", Eddie Albert post-"Green Acres", and Tom Skerrit who guest-starred on many, many TV series, most notably including "Kolchak: The Night Stalker" (at right about this time) -- where he ironically played a Satan-worshipping politician.
Shatner's part in this movie is actually suprisingly small. Borgnine's acting is really bad, and overall the script never seems to really be getting anywhere. I found myself more bored than scared or entertained by this movie.
As for the DVD, the picture is widescreen and the colours are nice and bright, but the film is still quite dirty and scratched. This should have been fixed.
If you're interested in movies with a Satanic theme, I'd recommend "The Omen" series, "The Sentinel" or even "End of Days" instead of this one. Unless you are really, really desperate, I'd say pass on this one.
