Plot teaser:
A happy young couple welcomes their first child shortly after getting married. Their joy quickly turns to fear when the girl starts acting strangely and unexplained phenomena start happening around the house. Fearing their daughter could be possessed, the parents call in a priest to perform an exorcism, but when that goes horribly wrong, the parents start to wonder if they can break their child free from the evil spirit that has taken over her body and soul and if she can be saved before it’s too late…
Reviews:
“Nothing refreshing to see here in this Exorcist/Omen style mash up but some great visuals and magnificent character scripting makes this more than an average watch, and the pay-off of the film is unexpected and brilliantly done.” The Movie Waffler
“The film boasts some truly creepy sequences of the supernatural, and though many horror films benefit from a less-is-more approach, Infernal could have used a lot more of this spectral imagery. For low-budget horror Infernal is hardly inspired, but it’s not an utter waste of time either.” ScreenRelish
” …this film was entertaining to watch, even if it fell flat at times. If you’re a fan of the found footage genre and liked the Paranormal Activity franchise this is something you should check out. It can be a little rough around the edges with the acting, dialogue, and the overall length dragging things down. However, it makes up for some of those shortcomings with its practical effects and the ominous feeling it produces once the lights go out.” House by the Video Store
