A Demon Within is a seen-it-before possession thriller that summons nothing new into the conversation.

It's the exorcist done poorly, where the demon is the house.

Neither scared me or left me shaken, A Demon Within is a rough horror movie that I didn't much enjoy.

Dreadful. Bad acting. Bad dialogue. Bad directing. Bad pacing. So bad. Not worth my two hours. And I am generally a forgiving fan of schlocky horror films. This was not in “the so bad it’s good” category.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

I have watched a lot of B grade horror movies, but this is one of the worst. The acting by the "doctor" and "priest" as well as the writing was horrible. don't wast your time, even if you like B Grade horror movies.

If the story had any hope horrible acting kills it. A Demon Within is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The story is unoriginal, the acting is unbelievably bad, and the effects are embarrassing.
