Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a horror-thriller film: "Devil"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins with the Bible verse from 1 Peter 5.8
Then, Ramirez, the surveillance watchman, narrates his mother's tale about the Devil,
taking a human form to roam the Earth, searching for humans to punish their sins
It's also said that committing suicide paves the way for the Devil to occur in "the Devil's Meeting"
A janitor polishes the inside floor of a skyscraper, while listening to music
Just behind him is a truck, where a man plummets to death, and crashes onto the truck's roof
Meanwhile, the detective eats breakfast with his sponsor in a dine-in
They discuss the detective learning to forgive the person responsible for killing his family
However, the detective disagrees, because there are things in life that are beyond forgiveness
Afterward, the detective meets the partner to check on a recent incident
They visit a nearby two-story building, to find a corpse holding a rosary on top of a truck
The detective is confident that the truck is located from a different place,
that only rolled onto the street, and lands beside the two-story building
Inside the same skyscraper, five strangers gather into Elevator 6
Those are the elderly woman, the salesman,
the temporary watchman, the young woman, and the mechanic
A song plays in Elevator 6 as they ascend
The floor number locator in the panel board doesn't show
Out of nowhere, Elevator 6 stops midway
Meanwhile, Ramirez arrives with coffee for another watchman named Lustig, inside the control room
Ramirez sits and notices Elevator 6 is in inspection mode
Hence, Lustig calls the building engineer to check on Elevator 6,
who's about to fix a human-sized broken window glass on Floor 35
In Elevator 6, the elderly woman criticizes the skyscraper's quality;
while the temporary watchman pushes the emergency button to alert his colleagues
Lustig radios the passengers from the control room, to assure them they're fixing the problem
Lustig also requests the passengers to communicate via panel board
Unfortunately, the passengers can only hear the security radio, but can't speak to them
Everyone in Elevator 6 is annoyed,
so the temporary watchman borrows the young woman's phone to call the front desk, but fails
The BGM returns, and the salesman attempts to uplift everyone's sour mood; but he only worsens it
The detective and the partner stumble outside upon glass shards,
just outside the skyscraper on the road
A janitor sweeps the glasses, and tells the detective that there's a broken window
The detective immediately stops the janitor's cleaning,
and declares the broken glasses a crime scene
Luckily, the detective and the partner immediately detect and avoid the falling glass from the sky
Ramirez resumes narrating that the Devil kills or hurts innocent people,
who intervene in punishing the trapped damned people
The building engineer reaches the rooftop,
and flips the power switch to search for a short in Elevator 6's breaker
The lights flicker, and the first blackout occurs, causing everyone to panic a bit
The light returns; and then the mechanic pushes the car's ceiling upward to open a hatch,
revealing a space outside the car
In the control room, Ramirez is in shock,
upon hearing from Lusting that someone jumped off from Floor 35
Afterward, Lustig comforts the passengers once more, that they're doing everything to get them out
Meanwhile, inside Elevator 6, the BGM returns, causing the mechanic's frustration to worsen
Simultaneously, the young woman suspects and warns the salesman behind her,
after feeling a hand had grabbed her back
The light flickers again in Elevator 6;
and Lustig immediately contacts the building engineer if he's fixing the lights;
but the building engineer replies he's in the basement
Either way, the building engineer pulls the emergency lever to reset the power in Elevator 6,
but it still doesn't work
So he decides to return the roof, and manually resets the car
While Lustig deals with the building engineer,
Ramirez catches an ominous face appearing on the surveillance monitor for Elevator 6
Right then, the second blackout occurs; and everyone panics
The lights return, revealing the young woman on the ground, with a bleeding bite mark on her back
Ramirez and Lustig watch them from the monitor,
and oblige the passengers' request to turn off the music
The music's off, and they notice the salesman's clothes and hands are bloody
The salesman defends himself, saying the young woman fell to him
Just then, this causes everyone to be suspicious of the salesman
The two surveillance watchmen decide to call the police, upon seeing the young woman's wound
Coincidently, the detective and the partner are nearby investigating the recent suicide
While waiting for the police's arrival, Ramirez presents the ominous face to Lustig;
but he only sees it as a common mistake
However, Ramirez prays with his rosary, believing it's the Devil
The mechanic and the temporary watchman attempt to open the car's door
The salesman tries to assist, but they only deny him
The detective arrives in the control room, and reassures the passengers to calm down through radio
Afterward, he immediately commands his partner to call the elevator company, Fire Department;
and find information about the temporary watchman
The detective then asks the passengers to reveal their driver's license
on the camera for identification;
but the letters are too small
So the detective and the partner search the sign-in log sheet in the lobby,
while Ramirez remains on watch in the control room
The light flickers in Elevator 6 again;
and the young woman sees a glimpse of everyone dead in the elevator
Suddenly, the wall mirrors shatter; the third blackout occurs; and everyone in the room panics
When the lights return,
they find the salesman impaled with a glass shard on his jugular vein; and dies
Ramirez immediately reports this to the detective, the partner, and Lustig,
who's about to learn the temporary watchman's information
It turns out the temporary watchman is a thug with criminal records of numerous assaults
They all arrive in the control room,
where the detective declares the incidents in Elevator 6 a crime scene
Ramirez starts to panic, reminding everyone of the recent suicide;
someone getting hurt; and someone dying out of nowhere
He tries to imply that the incidents occurring are called "The Devil's Meeting,"
where the Devil is amongst the people who torment the damned people on Earth,
before stealing them away
Lustig tries to calm down Ramirez,
but he persistently convinces everyone that the Devil is hiding among the passengers
The detective dismisses Ramirez's claim, and scans the monitor
Upon scanning, the detective believes the passengers are far from being murderers
He then asks a volunteer to pick up the folded paper, tucked inside the salesman's coat
The mechanic voluntarily takes the letter,
and shows the salesman's real name and Better Business Bureau's return address on floor 35
Inside Elevator 6, everyone goes quiet,
upon realizing the police must be speculating who's the killer
While the two detectives and the two surveillance watchmen meet in the lobby with the firefighter,
who recently arrived
The detective then visits Floor 35, to meet the woman officer about the suicide
She shows him the suicide note left in the office, with an ending sentence,
"I can hear the Devil's footsteps draw near"
She believes that suicide notes are either crazy or rational,
but the suicide note in their hands is both
On a similar floor, the detective also visits the Better Business Bureau's clerk
The salesman scammed people, causing them to lose a lot of assets due to his Ponzi scheme
So the detective asks the clerk for the list scammed by the salesman
Meanwhile, the firefighters fail to pry open the elevator door,
while the mechanic fails to climb out the hatch, because the young woman thinks he's escaping
The mechanic even allows the temporary watchman to search him to prove his innocence
The detective returns to the control room,
and asks Lustig to show every incident in Elevator 6 earlier
Just then, Ramirez shows the ominous face on the monitor,
saying, "everybody believes in the Devil a little bit, even if guys like you who don't"
Suddenly, the detective brings out a coupon with a written note, saying, "I'm so sorry"
it's revealed that the detective's wife and son died in Bethlehem Pike five years ago,
due to a hit-and-run
The killer left such a coupon on the crash site;
but now the detective sarcastically says it's okay because the killer is sorry
The detective doesn't believe in the Devil, because he believes that people can also do bad things
The detective returns his attention to the footage,
and begins suspecting the young woman, after watching how she acted as if someone grabbed her
Meanwhile, the building engineer tries descending into the stuck elevator,
but his machine suddenly gets stuck
The chain connecting him to a wire breaks, leading the building engineer to plummet to his death
Lustig pleads with the building engineer to use the walkie-talkie
Still, the building engineer already crashes onto Elevator 6 roof,
causing the car to shake mid-air, and the cable lights to fall
The detective arrives on the rooftop, and sees the building engineer dead
He quickly orders the firefighters to break the wall on Floor 21, which they promptly follow
The detective later returns to the control room,
and reviews the security footage of every passengers' arrival in the skyscraper
They learn that the elderly woman is a notable thief for openly stealing a lady's wallet in the lobby
After the elderly woman,
the detective notices that the mechanic had entered the entrance with a duffel bag,
but he doesn't have it anymore in the elevator
The detective is about to search for the bag;
when suddenly, Elevator 6's light flickers again, and blackouts for the third time
When the lights return, the thief hangs dead through a light cable from the ceiling
Upon seeing the thief dead, the detective orders a lockdown on the whole building,
and gathers everyone in their offices to the lobby
Before leaving to follow the command, the partner asks for a shutoff valve to turn off,
before opening the wall on floor 21
Lustig suggests doing it, and accompanies the partner outside the control room
Ramirez remains with the detective,
saying that there's a reason why they're the audience of the people trapped inside the elevator,
indicating that the Devil causes all this to happen
Meanwhile, an unidentified woman attempts to enter the building; but the entrance guard stops her
Ramirez narrates, "the Devil kills the last person, in front of the person they love the most"
In Elevator 6, the mechanic and the temporary watchman untangle the thief from the light cables
Afterward, the detective investigates the mechanic
He and the partner search for the duffel bag, and find it hidden in the lobby bathroom
Inside the duffel bag are tools, making them suspect the mechanic more
In Elevator 6, the temporary watchman and the mechanic start fighting out of rising suspicions,
to one another as the killer
The young woman tells the temporary watchman to kill the mechanic to prevent further deaths;
which he follows, causing a commotion inside
Luckily, the detective returns to the control room,
and successfully deescalates the tension,
by ordering the remaining passengers to place their hands on the wall
Desperate for answers, the detective asks Ramirez for a way to save the passengers,
if the Devil is indeed in their presence
Ramirez replies, "They all die "
Then, the detective resumes his research for the passengers' identity
The young woman is in the building to meet with her lawyer
So the detectives head to the lobby, and meet the young woman's lawyer
After their talk, the detective tries to contact the young woman's husband, but fails
Simultaneously, Lustig suddenly arrives in the lobby,
looking fried due to electrocution, after successfully turning off the shutoff valve
The detective immediately disperses the gathering crowd, and calls for the medics
In Elevator 6, the young woman removes her hands off the wall, because of her aching wound
However, the mechanic tells her to return her hands to the wall
Just then, the detective learns the truth
The young woman actually called her lawyer for legal advice after her husband,
who owns the building's security company, might've learned that she stole his inheritance money
Immediately, the detective and the partner rushes to the control room,
and claim the entire elevator incident is another Kensington sniper;
the partner explains it's a crime that occurred before,
when a husband killed strangers and his wife to appear his personal killing into a serial
The young woman's husband might've hired the temporary watchman to kill the young woman,
and had killed the rest to cover up the crime
However, everything changes,
when the fourth blackouts and the lights return to see the temporary watchman die with a broken neck
The mechanic and the young woman arm themselves with mirror shards
Still, the detective immediately eases the tension,
by telling them to hold accountability for their mistakes, and learn to recover from them
However, the lights blackouts for the fifth time, and the young woman's throat is slit
The mechanic attempts to stop the bleeding
Just then, they summon the unidentified woman to the control room,
where she identifies the remaining passenger, the mechanic, as her fiancé
It turns out the mechanic comes here in the building for a job interview who hid his tools,
because he didn't want to bring them; and the fiancé visits the skyscraper to fetch him
Everyone realizes the mechanic did sign in; and the elderly woman is no one else, but the Devil
In Elevator 6, the Devil, in the form of an elderly woman, confronts the mechanic for his life
The mechanic attempts to barter his life to save the young woman
The Devil says, "I can't do that
Besides, do you think you are worthy of forgiveness?"
The movie ends with the mechanic confessing,
and apologizing for fleeing from a hit-and-run five years ago in Bethlehem Pike
Thus, the detective learns that the mechanic is the one who should be blamed for his family's death
The Devil becomes feeble because of the mechanic's repentance,
causing the elevator to plunge several floors
In the end, The firefighters save the mechanic, the medics wheel out corpses,
and the detective brings the mechanic into custody
The detective discloses that it's his family who died in the hit-and-run;
and he surprisingly ends it with acceptance for the mechanic's apology
