I really enjoyed the film. It is in no way a Saw rip off. The only similarity is that the killer spoke to his victims to explain what was happening. If you've seen and understood all the Saw film, it's obvious that the killers in the two films have nothing else in common. There are lots of cases, in film and real life where a killer with a twisted morality is trying to make some kind of point. Almost everyone has secrets and "If you lie, you die" was an interesting approach to the question of how far people will go to protect those secrets. It was a good film and I will be watching it again.

The acting wasnt bad. The first half of the film wasnt bad. But then zzzzz nothing. And then finally you think, "really"?

Shame the Devil is yet another case of a DVD with a bloody image on the cover, without the movie having much to do with horror. Buyers looking for films from the specific genre will be disappointed. And you can see that in the woefully low score. What Shame the Devil is is a well-kept low budget TV thriller. This film indeed has similarities in plot with Seven and to a (much) lesser degree SAW, but Shame the Devild is never scary, unlike Seven of SAW. The biggest flaw in the film is quite a gap in the plot. "Victor" plays a major role in the closure of the film. The problem is, not only is this character not deepened, he has no previous screen time at all. He is mentioned only once in the course of the story, and the viewer can only guess what Victor's motive was? Money? Revenge? Love? This error is so obvious that I suspect there were once plans to shoot a longer film with a more elaborated plot, with room for Victor to play his part, but the budget didn't allow it. That been said, the story was very neat with a main character that is being explored. The film also manages to deliver mild suspense, which keeps you watching. The camera work is neat for a film with little budget and the great advantage of unknown actors is of course that they automatically get something realistic. I was able to buy my copy of the movie cheaply and I was not bored watching it. That is why I give the film 7/10.

'The truth will set you free. Shame the devil'. A disembodied, distorted voice ingeniously fits various torture devices to its victims and then encourages them to tell the truth and 'shame the devil'. If they tell a lie, something messy happens to them. This is most successfully employed at the very beginning of the film, when a hapless grocery store manager manages to scrape through the test unscathed by admitting to an affair. When his wife arrives on the scene and finds him strapped to chair with a rifle pointing at his face, and a lie detector strapped to it, she vows to get help. "I love you," she says. "I love you," he replies. BANG! The store manager no longer has a face. It's a gruesome and darkly hilarious moment. It's also the most horrific scene in the film – something Director and Writer Paul Tanter seems aware of, as there are interminable flashbacks to that scene throughout. The rest of the film is more of a detective thriller, with London Detective James (Simon Phillips) intrigued by the case, and then obsessed by it, as events seem to be trailing him around, eventually ending up in New York and the lovely Sarah (Juliette Bennett). This is a decent film, which could have done with some more gruesome moments. It starts off very much as a 'Saw' type of film, and then becomes something less horrific, but still interesting, with a good twist at the end. It is interesting in a film concerned with making people tell the truth, how the finale sees James defeated by a lie.

The film starts out with the main gore and pulls you in with a familiar "Let's play a game..."-type unseen villain. The rest of the film proceeds more like a psychological thriller. The story does have some plot holes and moments that a lot of viewers will spot and not be able to get around. Also, some scenes seemed to have extraneous dialogue slowing the pace of film, which may have been trimmed in a more high-end production. Introduction/explanation of some characters may also come across a little sloppy unless you are really paying attention. Nice use of locations. Decent performances by actors. Of note, Juliette Bennett pulls off the requisite balance of smart and sexy in her role. While not exactly treading new territory in the genre, it probably has enough to keep a casual viewer interested.

For a low budget movie, this was not bad. In fact I'll give credit for where it's due. Excellent performances especially from Simon Phillips and Peter Woodward.

James (Simon Phillips) is a detective investigating the strange deaths of a "you lie you die" serial killer. The killer uses a lie detector as a trigger mechanism to kill its victims. The killings start to center around James who is released from the case. Determined to still solve the crimes, James flies to NY to see a crime profiler who happen to be an old girlfriend (Juliette Bennett). His pregnant wife (Lucy Clements) doesn't want him to go. The opening scene made me chuckle. The killer had a Saw-like attitude and feel. This is a crime/thriller with a touch of horror. Film includes your basic twist, nothing fancy, and an ending I might have done differently. Good rental. F-bomb. No sex or nudity.

Saw is a way better movie and this movie just trying to be like saw

Samikshya BasnetMay 23, 2023

A film that thinks it would be a good idea to copy Saw, then try to copy s7ven (but work through the 10 commandments instead!) Very predictable, very repetitive and absolutely nothing new. From the opening rip off scene to the closing "twist" this film fails to present the viewer with any innovation. I am not sure how I made it to the end. I suppose I wanted to see how they could fit the deaths in associated with the ten commandments. They didn't even manage that! This film would be good if you were playing cliché bingo. You would have a full house after 30 minutes. Lead cop taken off the case and continues to investigate it ... You know the score. Avoid.
