Geekery: ‘May the Devil Take You Too’ is In Your Face Occult Horror
If you’re a Raimi fan, you’ll like director Timo Tjahjanto’s latest. It a little bit Drag Me to Hell, a little bit of Evil Dead – lots of vomiting scary demons, excessive gore, and a wicked sense of fun.
If the horror of the last couple of months has been disappointing, and you’re looking for something a little more violent and gross… May the Devil Take You Too is for you. The first installment had coils of hair dripping in ick, creepy priestesses, cringe worthy nails across wooden floor board scenes, and other demonic elements that a particular kind of horror fan wants.
Tjahjanto has made a sequel that promises more…
Two years after escaping from demonic terror, Alfie (Chelsea Islan) and Nara (Hadijah Shahab) try to continue their lives. But Alfie is still haunted by feelings of guilt and unnatural vision. Alfie’s worst nightmare has just begun and the dangers that await her are increasingly threatening: the figure of darkness so hungry for souls rises to take their lives.
You can stream the first part of the story on Netflix now.
May the Devil Take You Too hits Indonesian cinemas on February 27 – US release date TBA.
