Author: Robert Hamer January 6, 2012 Ah, January. Along with February (and to a lesser extent March) it’s that ever-so-reliable dumping ground for shitty movies not good enough for the Oscar season and not marketable enough for summer. The first weekend of 2012 sees the movie gods being especially gracious to us as they have only sent one wide release to test our faith in the power of cinema…
I suppose with the recent success of the “found footage” Paranormal Activity series and the historical success of The Exorcist, there was bound to one day be a horror flick that tried to capitalize on the success of both. Except…that film already happened over a year ago. So what new gimmick does The Devil Inside bring to the table? Oh, this time there are multiple demons possessing her! OOOOooooOOOoooo! At the very least, you can always count on an exorcism movie to pull out all the stops to try and get your attention. Even though the vast majority of critics say that it does nothing interesting other than pull out one of the worst endings in many years out of its ass, we can remain hopeful, right? It sure seems like the rest of the internet is, as online activity and lack of competition points to The Devil Inside making a healthy $21-26 million in its debut frame.

Oscar Scene: Adam’s breakdown in the car before surgery Joseph Gordon-Levitt is always someone you can count on for solid work (just look at my Under the Circuit piece on him), but he blew me away this year in ’50/50′. His portrayal of a young man dealing with a cancer diagnosis mixes humor with heartbreak. Gordon-Levitt was able to show you how someone in this situation would try and keep it all inside and put up a veil of confidence until it all comes crashing down. The breakdown that his character has in a car the night before surgery is one of the most powerful scenes of 2011. I was initially pretty sure that JGL would make his presence felt on the precursor circuit, but aside from scoring a Golden Globe nod, it’s been mostly all quiet on the Oscar front. It’s looking like he’ll be snubbed, but I’d like to put forward this incredibly performance for Best Actor consideration, with ACCA if not for the Academy at this point.
