Devil

Feel the fear with this chilling slice of horror from the mind of M. Night Shyamalan (that phrase is guaranteed to make me not want to see a movie, but then I saw that he didn't direct it, so it's ok).

The fates of five complete strangers are sealed from the minute they step into the same lift in an inner-city office block. None of them could ever have imagined that the seemingly small decisions that brought them to this moment were likely to be the last they ever made. All, that is, except one of them - the Devil, who is pulling sinister strings to make terrifying events unfold. As the lift grinds to a standstill, the group begins to suspect that something is definitely amiss. As lights flicker on and off and strange things reach out of the darkness, hysteria sets in and four of the five strangers must fight for their lives. But which of these characters is the Devil? And what can the others possibly do to save themselves from this desperate situation?

EDIT: I thought it was very good. Tension ratcheted up slowly and the movie didn't descend into silly gorefest.

The actors, music and photography were very effective. I really loved the music.

Don't try and figure out who did it. Lose yourself in the story.

There isn't a spare ounce of fat in this movie. It comes in at 80 something minutes.
