Yeahy, well. The french people expected so much of it and it was very disappointing. It is a very overrated film: the critics claimed it "gave a welcome surge of energy to a tired french film industry", well, the french film industry must be knackered to claim that Sheitan was an epic film. The plot of the film is confusing and pointless: a bunch of clueless youngsters escape from a disco and go off to the countryside(?)to spend the weekend there or something(I'm not sure why they went to some lost part of the french countryside after coming out of a disco so I'm making theories)there they meet with an inbred prehistoric man farmer thing that grins a lot and a community of inbred, decadent country dwellers who look like they were beaten up with anvils. The youngsters then hole up in a luxurious(and rather mouldy) château with a freaky collection of dolls in one room. The plot then degenerates into chaos and oblivion as the young 'uns clash with the local community and their devil-worshipping farmer friend. The film does manage to be pretty funny at times with a hilarious rap clip(look for it if you happen to watch the film). Things I learned from this movie: Party-crashing youngsters often escape to the countryside to sober up after a night at the disco. Inbred, decadent farmers possess the same strength as the Incredible Hulk. Devil-worshipping is a common practice in backward villages. Dogs will come back to life after having their intestines ripped out. Unfinished dolls are very scary. Inbred, monstrous farmers are as hard to kill as a cockroach and can survive being run over by a car with only minor injuries. Pursuing a couple of inbred deformed country adolescents on a moped is not advisable.
