Brad S. R A truly exceptional independent horror flick—other filmmakers should take note. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/25 Full Review Benton G This film punches way above its weight, showcasing serious talent on a budget. The film is fun, gory, thrilling, irreverent and poignant, while also definitely being bizarre. It’s a first run for some incredible filmmakers with lots of potential - for all the bad reviews calling it student material or not to waste $3.99, I’ll just say you can identify who the lovers and supporters of independent film are and who the blockbuster boot licking normies who stumbled upon this gem while they were lost on their way to the next marvel film are. This film gives me hope in the industry and the state of independent film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Pam F This movie is a hot mess. It's like it was made over a weekend during summer film camp. I'm only writing this review to save people from wasting their money. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/20/24 Full Review Joe S Went in without expectations. Was so corny it felt like satire. I just had to write a review to try to save the next person wanting to give it a try. Big senior-in-highschool-photography-final vibe. Weird choice in costumes. Scene pacing doesn’t allow you to get invested in or be surprised by anything. I think so far everyone that’s reviewed it is a fan of bad horror movies, which is alright and all, but I gotta save someone from spending the $3.99. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/24 Full Review Nathaniel C A rare gem from the Indy horror community. With a Keen eye to detail of a rarely seen historical era in film. The Sudbury Devil provides an interesting look into a . Largely overlooked by history, the Keen eye to detail in the aftermath of King Philip's war, gives Credence to the excellence of historical accuracy. With violence, action, Gore and sexuality to fill the needs of every watcher, this movie does not disappoint! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/01/24 Full Review gatling216 As far as indie horror goes, The Sudbury Devil delivers a lot of what you'd expect: graphic violence, intense sexuality, bizarre plot, and niche subject matter. Strong performances and immaculate attention to historical detail (on slightly anachronistic musket aside) set it apart from its contemporaries. It's a must watch for anyone with a strong stomach and an interest in either indie horror or colonial New England. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
