Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

jadesmylie It is obvious from the beginning and the information before the film starts, that they are tying to recreate a 60's style film. The screen is small and 35mm film is being used to get the best effect. There are lots of cuts and bad editing, both of which would be even regarded as 'high tech' at the time. The sound is crackled but if you pay attention it still displays the right time, fashion, language and beliefs, including the young nuns being exploited or punished for their 'sins'. It may not be a fully formed idea but the attention to scenery, footage of the time and bad audio makes a person become absorbed quite quickly in an experience, regardless of the modern market of blockbuster movies filled with constant action and current comedy at HUGE expense. A lot of these incredibly paid actors are philanthropic and generous. The culture of excessive payments to these 'celebrities' is so detrimental to the people in more impoverished areas. It isn't necessary and this hero worship of human beings (just like yourself) needs to stop and realise we are fuelling this economy, so need to be the answer to this huge gap between us.

derekjager The 1960s setting is great as is the acting. Unfortunately, they forgot to write an intelligent, compelling story. And so many loose ends. They start to investigate the "miracle" of blood tears flowing from Virgin Mary statues. Doesn't that sound creepy/disturbing? Why would the Catholic church consider that a miracle? They somehow jump to the conclusion that it means one of the women or a nun is pregnant. (?) That leads nowhere until one of the women says a pregnant women is locked in the basement. Of course, she's possessed so we're subjected to 15 minutes of her screaming and attacking people, a bed shakes, crosses turn upside down, she levitates, etc. I mean, really? Then they find--and film--a room filled with Satanic stuff. When they show the head nun the room moments later, all the Satanic stuff is gone. What's the point of that? And the priest don't even mention it again. Then it turns out the girl is a virgin what she's pregnant. And no one seems that stunned; even the Dr. is sort of, "Weird, huh?" They set up all these little scenes that go nowhere. Oh, and one priest hears children whispering to him, "We're going to kill you." Whispering kids are pretty non-scary to me, so this doesn't add any frights to the movie but of course, he has to race up and down the hallways to find the ghost kids. And while this is supposed to be found footage, there is a SOUNDTRACK for all the jump scares, along with scary music when they go to find the baby the girl gave birth too. And the end is a mess--I think the nuns are attacking the priests (you can't see a thing) and then the older priest is killed and then...film over. It's really a mess but again, such a great setting, well acted. Just lacks a great story.

Tcarts76 So the Devil's Doorway is another found footage foolish endeavor. This one is dressed up to be filmed in the 1960's. OK, If I sat down and watched this movie, shot not as found footage, but a traditional movie... I would have likely rated this a 6. As it is, It gets a really strong 3. It's got some scares, the young girls voices whispering makes the skin crawl a little, and nuns are always scary. I usually don't like these new attempts at making a film look retro , as if it was made and filmed in a different era, but this one would have worked well...if it wasn't a found footage genre film. In fact I would even give it a 4 or 5 if it was a standard film that incorporated the found footage into it in some way. Instead The Devil's Doorway took the dumb road and made it all just a standard (and by standard I mean really bad) found footage piece of garbage!

jtl12419 Yuk. The handheld camera technique (ala Cloverfield) needs to be banned for horror movies. When someone is chasing you with a chainsaw, one needs to turn off the video camera and stop taking selfies. Premise about the magdalene laundries and the horrible abuses that occurred under the Catholic Church, was a good start to the story. The camera work was distracting and motion sickness inducing, and really too silly and overused to be scary, and ruined what could have been a 4.5 star movie otherwise.
