Why are we supposed to look down on such films?---this is good chilling Hammer entertainment
By roncoach (365 reviews) from suffolk , 25 Oct 2011[Highly rated reviewer]
OK, it's probably rubbish and I'm a philistine.......but isn't the cinema a great leveller ?
I like this film and I like Hammer Films a great deal. I liked the Wheatley book. I liked all his books.
I'm not supposed to say that when I have read all the great classics and seen all the classic films. But who cares ?
Not only am I a sucker for this genre but the film would actually be enjoyed by most folk who sat down to watch it.
Christopher Lee is indeed 'classy' as someone else said. Nice to see him as the hero rather than the villain for a change.Charles Gray is evil personified ( perfect casting).
There are several genuinely absorbing and gripping scenes, but the most memorable is the night spent by our victims in the pentacle as The Beast comes for them ( shiver up the backbone.......shakin' all over).
Don't be a snob. The word rubbish is easy to use . Forget it and enjoy an under-rated film by an author who is now sadly looked down upon. Go on........be a devil !- Was this review helpful to you?

(29)A Mesmerising Classic
By BoroBoySteel (5 reviews) , 03 Dec 2012A distinctive, classic 60s horror that still captures the imagination right up to the twist. This format does full justice to the outstanding leads, supporting cast, and fine period detail, backed by a great traditional Hammer score. There are very good extras on the disc, such as the making of, which also explains why one actor is possessed by Patrick Allen's voice. The downside? The quality of the imagery highlights the limitations of the SFX, and the soundtrack is, sadly, mono. That said, enjoy. Listen to me...- Was this review helpful to you?

Great Film poor blu ray quality
By projectorman (3 reviews) from Birmingham , 09 Nov 2012Hi All,
just rented the bluray version of THE DEVIL RIDES OUt, this is one of my favourite Hammer productions, I bought the Anchor Bay DVD release which is excellent, thought that the blu ray would be the dogs boll' but WRONG the disc is a disappointment, it is excellent colour and definition but it is so dark and murky you feel that you need to turn up the wick to brighten the image, I am so glad that I only rented it, so my message is DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY on the blu ray if you haven't already got this title and you want it go for the ANCHOR BAY release, you won't be disappointed. I have rated it for the quality of the disc the film itself is 5******

The Rider Upon The Beast.
By a customer , 03 Mar 2012I hadn't seen this old movie since the late 1970's and it was just as good as I remember it to be.
It may be slightly dated by todays standards, but it can still put a shiver up your spine.- Was this review helpful to you?

The Devil
By Emjay69 (327 reviews) from Kidlington, Oxford , 20 Oct 2011A little dated but well worth watching. It has all the qualifications of a good mystery and belief. It doesn't matter whether you believe in black or white magic or not, this film is definitely one of 'Hammers' greatest.- Was this review helpful to you?
