Synopsis

edit

Hank (Joey Bicicchi) and Doreen (Erin Breen) are madly in love and can't wait to get married. They've planned out their special day in painstaking detail, from what to wear to who to invite. Everything seems to be going well until Doreen's brother Travis (Frank Zieger) shows up with a present for his sister, a beautiful but cursed locket that causes Doreen to get possessed by the Devil. Now Travis and Hank have to drive to Las Vegas in order to find Johnny Priest (Llou Johnson) a homeless exorcist and the last known person to have successfully performed an exorcism- something made more difficult because they only have 72 hours to find Johnny and perform the exorcism before Doreen's soul is forever lost.

Receptions

edit

Fangoria gave Devil in My Ride a positive review, praising the film for its acting and "squirm-worthy horror moments".[3] Twitch Film and Dread Central were more mixed in their reviews, as they both felt that the movie's tone was inconsistent at times and Twitch Film wrote that it "doesn't strike as an incredibly creative piece of guerrilla filmmaking, but it is for sure an entertaining trip to enjoy with a bunch of friends."[4][5]
