Devil's Due (2014)

One half of the filmmaker collective Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin/ Tyler Gillett), best known for their segment in 2012's V/H/S offer up a feature-length horror this time in the form of Devil's Due, an obvious Rosemary's Baby knock-off. The intention behind the found-footage casing is a newlywed's desire to capture family memories but discrepancies soon arise as surveillance footage no one would be able to retain begin detailing the couple's activities. As many other found-footage failures tend to play out, pointless scenes added for levity obstruct and hinder the suspense. The film grows increasingly ludicrous and laughable towards the inevitably trite conclusion. It's a derivative waste of time.
