Massacre Video Releasing The Devil

[Keeth]

Seems like everything other than the gore & insects, it's a lame soap opera...? Definitely not a good film but seeing it again will be great. It's a title I never, ever expected to see get properly released since, it seems, Asian film elements are difficult to get a hold of to restore, rights are a mess or difficult to obtain, etc.

Yep, Ding Dong is all I remember about it. Original language and seeing it in scope will no doubt improve the viewing experience.

First official release of this one ever. I didn't like it much but I've only seen it once. This is the one that has a little kid in a bell hop costume named Ding Dong. Watching it in the original Cantonese with subs might improve upon the experience.

Jaw-dropping, holy crap!

I've only seen The Devil once b/c my dub wasn't very good but all of the goo & creepy crawlers have stuck in my mind ever since.
