"Devil," directed by John Erick Dowdle and produced by M. Night Shyamalan, was released in 2010. The film is a supernatural thriller centered around a group of people trapped in an elevator, where it becomes apparent that one among them is the Devil. Upon its release, "Devil" received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its tense atmosphere and premise but criticized its predictable plot and limited scope. It performed modestly at the box office and didn't make a significant impact initially. Over time, however, "Devil" has developed a modest following among fans of supernatural and psychological thrillers. It is often regarded as an underrated gem within its genre, appreciated for its suspenseful buildup and effective use of a confined setting, despite its flaws. While it may not have achieved cult classic status, it has certainly carved out a niche audience that values its unique approach to horror and morality tales.
