A rare instance of a mockumentary approach to a horror concept that ends up feeling like any number of other found-footage adventures. Go to Full Review

08/23/2015 Less a possession movie, and more a surreal mystery. It's extremely dark, both in tone and lighting, but raises more questions than answers. For this, though, that's the best thing you can do. See more 11/04/2012 The Possession of David O'Reilly had potential but sadly failed. The actor who played David was really good. Through watching this you being to wonder if what David is seeing is real or if he is gone mad. My theory throughout the movie is that he was insane, and the creatures he was seeing were his guilt, but then the end happens, and I am not so sure. This movie fails though through the characters not behaving logical, and the movie being so dark. Most scenes you can't see anything going on, and it really detracts from the tension and suspense. See more 09/27/2012 The plot is weak but the monsters are amazing. A good watch for monster and demon fans. See more 09/01/2012 How can I put it without sounding pretentious? Pure jobbies. In fact, I've had more enjoyment squeezing out a jobby that resists every attempt to be expelled from my anus than from watching this drivel. See more 08/21/2012 Nothing was on TV, so I put this movie on......this movie starts off pretty intriguing. and it does a good job of holding your interest. it isn't until it is over that you realize hardly anything happened, nothing was explained, and all and all it was extremely monotonous. a guy sees a monster walking outside. no one else sees it. See more 08/11/2012 Pretty weak payoff, but it was better than crap like paranormal activitiy See more Read all reviews
