One part that reality struck me was when Nefarious explained that one of his goals is to punish God by causing harm to the ones He loves. Made me more sensitive to my daily choices and how it disappoints and hurts my Savior.

[kristinpruett]

I cried towards the end when the guard didn't bring him his food. That tore me apart. His agony was palpable.

[anthonyscheibmeir]

We are definitely in a spiritual war. I went on a Priest discernment retreat a few years ago and I opened myself up to the possibility God could be calling me to be a priest or anything really I just said God your will is what I will do whatever you want me to do I will do. Immediately after this demons started attacking me now sure I don't physically see them but I can definitely fell their presence especially when I am tempted to sin. Unfortunately as a result I have fallen into addiction but I have really started to take the scriptures more seriously and God has sent people in my life to get me out of this blackhole and eventually I will be out and I just want everyone to know that God is good he can change your life you just have to have faith. And to whoever reads this comment may God bless your soul and know this you are not alone.

That actor who played Edward was good! That guy deserves an award for that! Prayers for him even for the

[walksp]

The movie was excellent!! Sean Patrick Flannery deserves an award for his acting!! Jumping between the two characters and he made you feel sorry for Edward! Amazing!! I also, do not do horror movies this was intense and just masterfully done!

[kamiliajohnson]

Edward being so emotional is what made the movie pull at your heart strings. Him being to the point of torment that he can't keep it together and he sees death coming and all he wants is peace and safety at this point. He knows where he's going and he wants more time. His portrayal lingered with me for days and make me want to weep. People all over deal with this torment all the time. It fills you with compassion for those in torment. We battle not against flesh and blood.

Having studied Theology for over 30 years, I couldn't have been more thrilled about the fidelity to Truth demonstrated in this film. Phenomenal. Can't wait for the sequel 🎉

[DJPTEXAS]

Looks like one of the better movies out there right Hope it plays in more

[christinemyers]

I agree! It also blew me away, and I haven't seen a movie in the theater in over 5 years! Pure genius in bringing out the message with such boldness. The more I ponder on this message after seeing the movie, the more I love this movie and highly acclaim the producers!

[melanietrahan]

INTENSE from start to finish!!! Excellent production. Much of it validated what I already knew, have read, and listened to about how demons operate and the state of the world it’s in currently and why, his desires, his pleasures, his dislikes, etc. If you aren’t exactly sure how demons truly think or operate, this movie will hit you at your core. Definitely not an “R” rated movie however, it has a couple of scenes that are disturbing (I was in tears). A must see film for all, no matter the religion. It’s a movie that is 100% spiritually factual, eye opening, and encouraging. Highly probable that the conversion of many souls who do not believe or who are indifferent, with Gods grace and mercy, will come to believe ♥️

I'm a Bible thumping Baptist. We are in a never-ending, 24/7 excitential war with evil. Put your armor on
Pray pray pray. We know who conquers in the end. But so many lives will be lost.

If you see this film and think it was well worth your time, please leave a positive review on the usual sites like Rotten Tomatoes etc.
Currently on RT, it has received a 33% score from reviewers but an audience score of 97%.
The public is hungry for the message of the film but the establishment critics' view is that "it lacks subtlety, the expressed views of the demon are clearly a mouthpiece for the filmmakers". They even slam the casting which is ridiculous.
With their poison pens, they want as few people as possible to see this movie.
I'd say that it is the reviews themselves that lack subtlety. A couple more: "The film's heavy-handed and bogus message tells us that Hollywood is immoral because it acts to corrupt its viewer's minds." and "The only thing not covered in this Christo-fascist manifesto of a movie is “guns.” These are laughable reviews, their own extreme bias and agenda are screaming from the rooftops.
I enjoyed one positive review that says, " Nefarious is interesting enough to give it a watch. Just leave prejudice behind and enjoy the possession take they're going for."
The Wiki page is a slam piece, mentioning the negative critic reviews and parroting the establishment reviews. They make no mention of the general audience giving this film an overwhelmingly positive 97% approval and enjoyment rating.
So please do what you can to give this film its proper due and justice.

The first and best trick of the Neferious is to convince you he isn't real. Lord Jesus Christ, Divine Mercy, have pity on us. +

[tylerw]

That was a fantastic review. Thank you. And what a phenomenal saying "This movie was made by Christians for non-Christians" As Steve preach!"

[Thanar]

One of the theological consultors for Nefarious was a Catholic priest and exorcist.

[acj]

Both hubby and I thought it was excellent! Great writing and acting. Thought provoking. A movie for our age !

[stlouisix]

This movie is an outstanding portrayal of the Spiritual War for our souls, moreover, it's the best I've ever seen regarding an accurate picture of that War against Powers and Principalities! Absolutely riveting is an understatement! The lead actor, Flanery, deserves an Oscar for his performance. You wouldn't think that a movie with just two principals talking to each other throughout would be that gripping, but this one is unforgettable, and they complemented each other well! Nefarious is a morality play where you see the truth of the demonic at work endlessly for our souls! If this doesn't give you a wakeup call that the devil and hell exist, nothing will! I can't recommend it highly enough! You won't ever forget it, of that be assured, as it addresses the evil of our time in terms of the sins that cry out to Heaven for vengeance like no other movie I've ever seen! Its warning is "Don't ever let your guard down" as satan prowls the world for the ruin of our souls till we draw our last breath!

Thank you for putting this review together Keith. It's great to hear straight talk, from a trusted source ❤️ .

[burkeiowa]

The R rating resulted from what happened to a finger (not the middle finger, and it wasn't cut off), but they increased the rating based on that. In some sense, it helps the movie fit the rating that one would expect for non-religious audiences. But it was thought to have been given to keep Christians from wanting to watch it, since plenty of PG-13 films get by with at least as much as this film had in it. LifeSiteNews has a great video with the makers of the film. They point out many things that got in the way of producing the film, including things that clearly seemed like spiritually-caused things. [Added later, I tried to avoid spoilers, but comments made to my comment include spoilers.]]

About time that satanic genres got some Christian attention.
The horror junkies and obsessives will HATE any Christian content, any gospel insights that reveal demonic activity.
Clearly the makers of the film are aware of the powers and principalities that run the entertainment industry . So this film will be hated and trashed by all the right people.
The evil appeasers and suppliers will hate all this. So we followers of Jesus must support the creators of this film.
Looking forward to it coming to the UK....my God, we need its message.
