Reviews [click links to read more]:
“If I were to complain about anything with this film it would be that it did take a while to get to the action. Luckily, the actors were able to keep my attention while they set up the story. The Devil Below has several interesting ideas but doesn’t quite capitalize on all of them. It’s still a fun watch, though, and one that I would recommend.” Bulletproof Action
“The actors are also doing their best with the script they were given […] This, unfortunately, isn’t enough to make up for the predictability and lack of fright. The Devil Below is not particularly tense, jumpy, gory, or frightening. As a horror film, it disappoints.” Flickering Myth
