Killing Ariel (2009)

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Hi Movieman_Kev. Ariel is a succubus not an incubus (male). Wikipedia explains it well here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incubus. The only major part that might have been confusing is connecting the number of times the protagonist kills Ariel with the women he supposedly murdered in the "real world". I would also add to the time lapse that follows his weekend tryst with the she-mon. It could have been brought out better with the movie directors showing just how much time had elapsed. I was surprised to learn that the cast are acting unknowns, but they did managed to bring out the story well enough. It's an entertaining piece with a nice twist at the end (the son also falls prey to Ariel). It's a good movie that should be reviewed by more people. I award it an eight.

KILLING ARIEL is very bizarre and has a somewhat dark sense of humor, you might thing looking at the cover art you'll get a horror film but instead its more of a dark horror comedy, think of it as a film called VERY BAD THINGS (starring Cameron Diaz) then add a little dose of THE EVIL DEAD and that sums up what you could expect from this film.The acting was great, I have to complement the cast of unknowns in this film (or I've just never seen them before) for giving above par performances, the storyline is weird, plainly put.Side note, if you want to check this out go for it but its not everyone's cup of orange juice so its best you go in not expecting a horror film if that's what you want to see.

Wow! I went into watching this move with low expectations, since I have never heard of any of the actors, or director. Within the first ten minutes I was riveted to the screen. This is much more than a horror film in so many ways. I was thoroughly entertained with the plot, and was equally satisfied with the twists and turns that the movie took along the way to the ending. Although I was somewhat confused in a couple of parts of the movie, it eventually explained itself in a way that was gratifying without being too over indulgent. I highly recommend this movie to anyone that likes a bit of gore, dark humor, sex, and a bit of the occult in a film. The acting was very good, and the casting was spot on. Good film! Watch it!

In the start i didn't know if this was a good movie, i was like "what the hell, ill take a peek" And oh my god, this scared the hell out of me!I loved this movie, it beat "1408" with miles, its not the same "kind" but it is frightening from the start to the end. I say this, Best Horror movie this year, and gonna be hard beating this. And i would love if they do more of these psychological thrillers/horror movies comes, smarter and scarier.The movie starts when the main character is a boy, sitting in his dark childhood room, and the parents screaming outside in the livingroom. He hears a shotgun go off. He lights a candle and opens the door, there stand his mom with the dead father, she turns to the boy and shots herself with the shotgun. then the demon reveals himself for the first time, after the both parents are dead.Years later, he is older, and its his time to encounter this demon. The fright in this is the continuing hell that the demon in this movie creates for him, how the demon never lets go off his mind, and really mind rape him from the start to the end.Watch this! you will love it!
