Set over the Halloween weekend, this thrilling and hilarious comedy horror follows an underachieving music teacher (Spencer Brown -- Nathan Barley) and his dodgy colleague (James Lance -- Ted Lasso) who end a big night out by unwittingly selling their souls to the devil for three days' good fortune. Soon realizing their grave mistake they find themselves in a race against the clock to break the deal and save their futures. But do the useless pair, aided mainly just by an unhinged priest (Michael Smiley -- Kill List), stand any real chance? As obstacles, and bodies, start piling up, the hour of reckoning grows near....

Guardian

Really, what The Devil Went Down to Islington feels like is a low-rent version of an Edgar Wright movie: a reminder that pulling off a decent spoof is devilish trick. There’s not much treat here.

Rated: 2/5
