The Devil Inside (2012)

Released January 6th in the US.
Filmed in Romania and Italy.
This is very loosely based on facts. In saying that , I shall tell you I cannot say for certain if the things in this film actually occurred. What I can say for certain is that the woman portrayed in this film , Maria Rossi , - is infact an actual person who , in real life , killed , along with a friend - a 70-year-old woman when she was 17-years old. That's the just of what I know about this movie. Confusing? Yea , just a little. I'll tell ya , it gets even more confusing after you see the movie. hahahahaha. Speaking of that , not one of the best movies I've seen in a while. But there was some creepiness here.
The story : Isabella Rossi is very concerned about her mother Maria. It was told to Isabella when she became a young adult that her mother had brutally murdered three people from her church while they were performing a so-called exorcism on her.

Isabella follows right through on her plans.
While sitting in on one of the discussions at the exorcism school , she befriends a couple of guys who are studying this phenomena. Also , the two guys are priests in the making.
The two guys decide to help Isabella with her mom. After visiting with her , they both believe that mom should be evaluated to see if she is infact possessed by a demon.

Murder In the Heartland : The Search for Video X (2003)

Now, if I didn't know any better I would surely believe this is an actual documentary. I have to tell you, this really plays like a real-life story and incident. While I watched this, the thought never did cross my mind that I wasn't actually watching a documentary about these people. Very believable although I guess this is actually taken from the real-life story of 19-year-old Charles Starkweather and his 14-year-old girlfriend Caril Ann Fugate, whose crime spree went on from 1957 through 1958 in Nebraska and Wyoming. So, in that aspect, this is based on a true story I guess. Other than that, this isn't anything close to that truth.
This so-called new spoof on documentary storytelling referred to as ' faux cinema verite ' isn't exactly a favorite of mine. I find that it's very confusing and misleading.
Released July 30th in the US.
Filming location(s) unknown.
The story: Mislead young'en Dwayne Foote takes his God-fearing young girlfriend Darla Jean Stanton on the adventure of their lives.
All of a sudden, out of the blue the two decide to go on a crime/killing spree through three states. The twos crimes go from holding up convenience stores, to murdering families and robbing banks taking hostages along.
We shall hear from the people that thought they knew them or about them. Their families and friends alike.
But then, when the filmmakers realize that while the two were on their adventure, they were videotaping their actions.
This said video is referred to as "video x" and it seems many are going to the greatest lengths to keep the video from being acknowledged as existing.
