Review: I can say that falling in love with this movie at first sight. It’s high moral, though its full immorality. It’s beautiful, despite its ugliness. It is relevant and fresh, despite its age. The film Devils will show you the true hell on earth, you can not stand the sight, can not believe it, you can ignore. But you do not get the same as it started to watch it. No one will remain indifferent.
Full horror of human vices, all the dirt treachery and hypocrisy – all fall down on you at once. Not everyone is willing to accept and take this, but those who survive, leaves cleared. If you are lucky, you will not be back again for this film, and it will be your consolation.
