Seeing it a 2nd time and got even more gems. Ready for #3. The writing is absolutely brilliant, acting award-worthy, message very timely, and for everyone. Atheist Psychologist dialoguing with a demon. Lots of schooling going on. Simply amazing, riveting. Just WOW!

This was an awesome movie. Sean Patrick Flanery and Jordan Belfi should both get an Oscar for their acting in this movie. I strongly recommend this movie.

I viewed Nefarious opening weekend, and it was not what I had expected. I'll be honest, I was very skeptical about a movie made by Christian filmmakers and writers. While they are normally filled wholesome with messaging, the production value leaves much to be desired, and can often be cringy. This one is different. Nefarious is a rated R horror/thriller film. After viewing it with my husband and my teen, we agreed it was suspenseful and sometimes emotional. The actors in this film were phenomenal - the movie is shot in a single room for the majority of filming. The set is legit gritty and institutional giving viewers a sense of authenticity, and the exchanges between the actors are captivating. There are times when you'll hope they'll break away to a flashback or some kind of respite, pulling back from the intensity of the scene. They won't - you are drawn into it yourself, and you feel the anxiety and discomfort with them. The experience of many of the scenes in this movie is similar to "Silence of the Lambs" when Jodie Foster is in the house with the killer. There are times when the humanity of the convicted is exposed, and you feel empathy for him. At the same time, you understand his struggle, the possibility that a demonic entity has overtaken him, and all it took to get there. Sean Patrick Flannery has the role of a lifetime in this movie and it's so unexpected, so believable, and at times, frightening. It’s not action-packed, and there’s not a bunch of CGI to scrutinize, but it is entertaining and leaves you with a lot to think about and discuss when it’s over. The story and writing itself are so well done, it carries the movie. You're dropped into the middle of a scenario, the most important part of one, and you have to find your way through it and all that is revealed along the way. It's a movie for thinkers and people who can understand that several things can be true at once. It connects a lot of dots if you ap

Superb acting & dialog. Critical thinkers will love this physiological thriller!

User review rating: 4 April 16, 2023

If you remove your opinion of the base material and the author of the novel that this was based on, this is a really good movie. Well written, well acted, and well directed. Polished and riveting. Would happily watch again in the future.

An Academy Award performance by Sean Patrick Flanery. Great job also by Jordan Belfi. Top notch writing and production values. Nothing about this looks or feels like an independent, low budget, "Christian" production. Unexpected events throughout keep you on edge and guessing. The in-your-face explanation of evil's plan for mankind is chilling. No one has any excuse for being uninformed as to what is really happening in the world after watching.

I thought the insight into the demonic realm was close to reality.

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

I don't usually do horror movies, but this one has brains and strong characters. Lots of food for thought. Worth the time and price of admission! I will be buying this one for my library as soon as it's available!

Ther is nothing I didn't like. Sean Patrick should get the Oscar. Superb acting, love a movie with intelligent dialogue. Wow, not preachy, bit promotes a Biblical world view, honestly. Grat after discussion film.

Great movie about good & evil. Closed my eyes for 3 minutes at end but rest of the movie was excellent. Both main actors did an amazing job.

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

This is a must see. Take your friends, children, anyone you can. Your soul depends on it.

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

This movie quickly captures your attention from the beginning and doesn't let go. The writing and acting are equally outstanding! It pulls no punches by forcing the audience to wrestle with the realities of this world, while reflecting on their own lives. A must see!!

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

The thing that makes this horror movie stand out from the rest is it’s themes are 100 percent real!

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

The movie was very thought provoking! Opened my eyes up to the reality of good vs evil. Not just that but the spiritual warfare going on around us! I have always been aware of this, but never really recognized that it truly is going on! This movie is a must see for Christians! The quality of the movie was great! The acting was great! It is something I would not take my children to though, just because of the heaviness of the subject...there was no sex, nudity, violence or profanity.

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

This is no hack and slash gore fest. Be ready to be provoked -- this movie delivers a rollercoaster of thought. Sean Patrick Flanery deserves an Oscar nomination for his performance. All the characters were played perfectly -- well done!

My husband and I I saw this movie on Thursday afternoon the first showing we could find. I anxiously awaited the release, and my expectations were more than met. The acting was tremendous and the content was so thought provoking! I’ll be taking my son and his fiancé tomorrow. I hope they will recommend it to their friends, I have been... I can’t wait to see it again.

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

Well done!!

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

This movie is the real deal. You won’t see this type of movie very often. It uses the genre to tell an unexpected story. It’s up to the viewer to accept it or hide from THE Truth. See for yourself. Are you ready to open your eyes and stay asleep and pretend?

User review rating: 5 April 16, 2023

I`m going to watch it again, but hopefully in the early afternoon so my pulse won`t still be racing by bedtime...

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

This is a movie Hollywood would never deliver because they're sleeping with The Enemy. But here, Steve Deace and company deliver a story Satan doesn't want you to see. Spiritual warfare is real, and you'll leave the theatre pondering a very sobering warning.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

A must see and re-watch. So much content to unpack. It confronts the viewer and their worldview, prompting introspection and conversation. So many emotional, social and spiritual issues are addressed, and your sensibilities are challenged. I found myself asking questions internally, "Have I been complacent? Where have I compromised or justified something out of 'convenience?'" That all said, it is riveting wire to wire just to watch Sean Patrick Flanery chew up the scenery. You have to have a generous acting partner and he had that in Jordan Belfi, who provided the perfect amount of tension. It leaves you ready for the next story.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

The acting and script was riveting!!

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

My family has been waiting so long to see this movie and I'm so grateful for Steve Deace and his teams vision. This movie does a great job representing a depraved ungrateful world that is unfortunately forgetting that there is good and evil. For such a faith based plot it is amazing to me that GOD is not mentioned once nor any “savior” style preaching which makes the script different from many other films. Amazing acting isn't even the word, if this were not a faith based movie the lead could be up for an academy award. I read the book a nefarious plot a few years ago and couldn't think of how this movie could be a prequel and was amazed at how the writers adapted it. Great movie, great acting, GOD bless!

Hold on for a real world ride. A must see!

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

The best movie of 2023. A mix of 12 Angry Men, The Green Mile, and Silence of the Lambs. Not a gore-fest just a great psychological, suspense, thriller that will have you jumping in your seat.

Phenomenal movie! Acting is stellar. Thought-provoking and suspenseful to the very end. Had me at the edge of my seat, holding my breath.

Best movie I've seen in a long, long time. My wife and I saw it last night, loved it, stayed up talking about it til 2:30 AM and just bought tickets to see it again tonight. Incredibly well-done film.

Don't believe in the devil, oh well, he believes in you and he's coming for you! You will get emotional from this movie, guaranteed

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

This movie is based on the book ‘A Nefarious Plot’ by Blaze TV host Steve Deace, which was written after the likeness of ‘The Screwtape Letters’, the C.S. Lewis classic, yet based in modern-day America. Read the book. This movie kicks the balls of our fallen society. And it hurts. Mostly dialogue, the script doesn’t shy away from revealing the gory ignorance largely ignored by most. People need to watch this; like a 12-gauge in a fistfight, Nefarious contrasts to the weak, woke, and watered-down movies Hollywood has come to produce. With a powerful message and captivating story, this is a movie I’m going to go see again. And buy it on DVD when it comes out. Sean Patrick Flanery performed some of the best acting I’ve seen. Jordan Belfi was no slacker either. Sean conveyed precisely the pleasure demons take in tormenting, and the stark opposition to anything that pleases God. The people who complain that there is too much ‘preaching’ in this movie have already fallen into the trap. To quote the movie, “There is a war between good and evil, and wether you believe or not, we all participate.” Choose your side.

Actors were very convincing. Message was well presented.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

I normally don't go to the movies unless it's something special. This was one of those times. The character of Sean Patrick Flannery as demon was believable, snarky and creepy. You definitely get the picture of what evil is and the battle rages continues to rage on.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

The movie doesn't have superhero, cgi, guns a blazing Hollywood cheese. Just a strong well written storyline, and great acting. Sean Patrick Flannery blew my mind with how real his character was. We need more movies like this!

Tremendous acting by both leads! Quite a twist from what i expected

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

Sean Patrick Flanery was spectacular and Jordan Belfi was superb! Great acting begins with a great story. This movie will not disappoint.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

Very underrated movie! Fantastic movie! Draws you in and keeps you wondering what's next. It's the best movie I've seen in a long time. I hope everyone gets a chance to see this powerful movie. The acting is exceptional. I can’t wait to see it again. This movie is very intriguing and draws you in to the movie like very few movies can and makes you think. You realize there are forces working to derail us into thinking things happen by accident. I can’t wait to read the book this movie is based upon. Life is so much more complicated than we can believe or imagine. Evil is real and we should not ignore that fact.

Sean Patrick Flanery gave an absolutely amazing performance!

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

Must see movie!! Sean Patrick Flanery deserves an award for his performance. It has a very good message and leaves the viewer to contemplate their beliefs.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

An absolute stellar performance by Flanery. He was so into his character and so believable there were moments he had me in tears. I felt so bad for her character at times and glad he was on death row at the same time. My son is reserved on commenting on actors. My son said Flanery absolutely carried that movie with precision. Indeed he did. The movie is not preachy in my view. It just literally tells things as it is and has it's happened and why. For the Christian component it makes the point clear Satan hates mankind and God loves mankind. There is an underlying point being made about temptation all the way towards the near end and it's done very very well.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

Intense and edge of seat thought provoking. Loved that it wasn’t a raunchy, tacky horror movie.

User review rating: 2 April 15, 2023

This movie was just pretty silly. It’s all very made up like Santa and the Easter Bunny but that’s okay I guesss as delusional is the order of the day.

User review rating: 5 April 15, 2023

This movie is a masterpiece. Very important message from this movie. Sean Patrick Flanery was absolutely magnificent!!
