Sheitan review SKINNYFEST
It might be quite simple to overlook the faults of Kim Chapiron's film, and praise it for its worthy dissection of modern French race relations and its searing analysis of the perplexing role of religion in private life. Sadly, this is not the case; nor is it a plain, mindless horror flick. Instead, 'Sheitan' is more a cross between the earnest chiller and amusing send-up, haphazardly amalgamating its diverse elements to complete a vague semblance of a plot. But Cassel himself is wonderful as Josef, riding the fine line between the ridiculous and the grotesquely sublime, and rendering the entire film really quite hilarious.
