Review of The Devil at 4 O'Clock

When l'd watched this picture on late night in old TV session called "Corujão" l had stayed stuck by this such greatness, now on DVD experience and matured by so many movies from that, I've no longer think as before, it starting as quite promising concept, great cast, even a foreseeable story, a bit weird, but had a finest well-crafted characters, a dubious and alcoholic Priest, Three scum of mankind as convicts, a former French prostitute who love peppery magazines, a substitute Priest who as a true believer, the iron hand bad temper Governor and at last on a highest mountain a Lepers hospital on Priest's charge, all little children there with that curable disease still understood by newcomers, so the angry Volcano is back, after this point the upcoming events crumbled for themselves, a lot of flaws in every frame, parachute jumps to nowhere, a fake volcanic lava flow, rains extinguish fire, a convict Marcel sank in the mug who actually was the most amuzing character on lousy lines, Sinatra in a sudden marriage at nearby cave, anyway all going mad, spoiling a gripping premise, without forget the bridge's final scenes, a true far-fetched ending, Krakatoa is back....but at least enjoyable neither!!!

Resume:

First watch: 1985 / How many: 3 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7.25
