For all its embarrassment of riches, “Deliver” never manages to transcend its bloody, screechy, pulpy origins. That makes the film both a horror tale and a tragedy. Read full review

It’s all clichéd, of course, and has been since “The Exorcist” but it’s still effective, perhaps more so with anyone who, like our hero cop, comes from the world of scented smoke and altar boys. Read full review

For all its darkness, [it] never really scares up anything new. Read full review

Actually, Ramirez should probably have been cast in the lead, since things flatten out whenever he disappears. Read full review

This is television-level moviemaking top to bottom, from its preposterous premise, scenery-chomping performances, idiotic sound cues and force-fed jump-scares. Deliver Us From Evil delivers formula, and in a formulaic fashion. Read full review

I liked Deliver Us From Evil, but is it ever a frustrating film. Its strong positives are only weakened by negatives that cannot be ignored, with an imbalance borne mostly of indecision throughout all aspects of the film.

One of the most boring horror movie ever! Predictable and uninteresting main plot, blunt characters, this movie doesn’t have a single creative detail in it. No reason to see it

Aburrida… Deliver Us From Evil es confusa, la trama se desarrolla lento, muy lento (muchos momentos son sumamente innecesarios, ¿en serio, teníamos que ver como discuten por un partido de baseball? ¿o contar miles de veces el pasado del padre? Hay muchos huecos en la historia, la película… Expand

I am trying very hard to say something positive about this movie, but I cannot recommend it because it is more of a car wreck than a mash-up. It is not the fault of the actors, who were quite believable, but the script was awful and the director uninspired. This movie made me believe that… Expand
