Despite all the negative reviews i still decided to purchase Devour because the beautiful and talented Jensen Ackles is the star of this movie. This isn't the greatest movie ever made but it's not the worst either, it's a little confusing at times but i still enjoyed it! If your fan of Jensen Ackles and Supernatural (TV series) this movie is a MUST HAVE! Also Jensen's real life father stars in Devour too!

Being honest, I only got this because Jensen Ackles is in it.
Devour has to the funniest thing I've seen this year. There's barely any plot, barely any horror - buckets of gore doesn't make something terrifying, it just makes me think that the set designer will have a bitch of a time getting all that out the carpet.
I wouldn't really have rated this any higher than a 15, being honest, I'd have let my son watch it if he was twelve, it was that unscary.
I'm trying to work out if the horror was meant to be funny, but horror films are rarely known for irony.
One to be watched, very drunk with friends, right after you've ripped the micky out of Battlefield Earth.
Then go hire Ginger Snaps, or a good Troma film, which is exactly what it says on the tin.

My father once told me that if you're a real fan of an actor, you take the good with the bad. That's exactly what Devour is - taking the bad.
As a lot of people admit, I only bought this as I'm a fan of Jensen Ackles and if you really just want to watch him, I'd suggest just putting Supernatural or Dark Angel in - those were better.
On the whole the film contained hope in the cast with Jensen Ackles and Shannyn Sossamon; you just wished it was a better script perhaps? Definitely did not warrant a 18 certificate, so if gore and horror is your thing, don't buy this {albeit i looked away at one point...but cutting off tongues is NOT my thing}.
However, if you like a movie that you can have in the background or to fill in a good hour, and you're a fan of the actors I would recommend it. I personally did like the movie, even if it did have a plot that was as easy as following a trail of breadcrumbs amongst breadcrumbs. There were some moments that were good - but I myself thought the ending was sudden stop. It left me wondering - is that it?
