Trailer Synopsis Cast

In a high-rise apartment young parents Alex and Mahsa live with their seven-year-old daughter Mina. Everything about the family is completely normal, uncomfortably real: Their home, their jobs, her school, the way they hold and love each other. The line between fact and fiction is blurred because THEY ARE A REAL family. Until completely normal turns into what they fear the most. Alex's injury opens the door to a malevolent force that attacks and dismantles the family one person at a time: A violent aggressor determined to prove that possession is real, unconscionably disturbing and very different from how it's depicted in the movies.

Thad Beaumont is the author of a highly successful series of violent pulp thrillers written under the pseudonym of ‘George Stark’, but when he decides to ‘kill-off’ his alter-ego in a mock ceremony, it precipitates a string of sadistic murders matching those in his pulp novels, which are soon discovered to be the work of Stark himself. Looking like a maniacal version of his counterpart, Stark is not so willing to quit the writing game – even if it means coming after Thad's wife and their baby.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Nearly every horror movie about a loving family goes berserk, starts with a way too loving parents and a cute kid who extremely loves his/her parents. But this movie goes beyond and makes it too hard to concentrate on the plot. I have few words for the scriptwriters; using the word "Baby" as a punctuation mark doesn't pump up our sympathy for the family but the exact opposite. Throughout the whole movie the actors said "Baby" nearly 3 billion times! And yes now i hate relationships. I wonder, is it because of the scriptwriters or is it just terrible improvisation. The other thing is about the end. Don't you think that there is so many information for a monologue? Other than that it was an OK movie.

If you love horror movies but hate most of the horror movies you see, this is a horror movie you will love. Basically: This is a straight up, well made film.Luciferous is the type of film that will stay with you. It's the type of film that you don't go around recommending to just anyone - including horror fans. Some people may use the description of "slow burner" but I feel it's more about subtleties that increasingly become worse and continue to linger after the story is told.This movie doesn't push any boundaries. It doesn't implement any type of new filmmaking tricks. It won't raise the bar on how horror filmmaking will be made in the future. I'm pointing these things out to stress the fact that this was a movie that was well crafted with traditional filmmaking standards. This is bare-bones horror filmmaking that shows that those involved with making it truly understand the concept of making a great film that happens to fall into the horror genre.This film embraces the art of independent filmmaking. This is a great example that millions of dollars and over-the-top special effects aren't necessary to make a great horror flick. Luciferous does it right: Write a great story and let the rest of the work stem from that.

Someone please tell me what the hell this movie is about and what is happening. Who is John? Who killed the little girl. Is this real. Was there malevolent force? Who was the malevolent force? And , I agree, if that little girl did not get killed soon with all that whining and mommies, if I had a gun would shoot her myself. Just, Horrible! From what I can gather, the father was being possessed; or you may believe he had a brain injury which altered his personality to a more violent one. He was not aware of his actions; either due to the injury or the demonic force in the house. Somehow they left the house and everything was okay; but again, that could be psychosomatic also. Anyway, it goes; they all deserved something bad to happen in the end; each member of the family was extremely annoying. Maybe that's how the movie intended it to be. You, the viewer becoming the ultimate evil force in wanting to kill them all or see them gone!

Avoid it if you can. Seriously Lacking Screenplay & Effects probably due to production restriction. Making of movie could have been much better. Since the movie Written, produced, Directed & Starred in it by Alex the husband in the movie; The wife and the daughter of the Alex have starred in it too. The word mommy is being screamed by the kid in every 2 minutes which is quite irritating. Overall the concept was Okay. However the actor Alex was good at playing psycho in the movie. You would lose interest after watching it for 15 minutes. The movie was quite subtle when showing blood in it. Most of the movie was predictable but the ending was little different.
