That Demon Within Ratings & Reviews
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Wu keeps us caring with an intense yet nuanced performance, as if relishing the chance to break out of the romantic hero mould that characterised his early career.
MediaMikes
Michael A. Smith
...one of the best action films (and psychological thrillers) I've watched in a very long time.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Despite some dazzling action sequences, the movie is too disjointed and mean-spirited to break out of niche markets.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Pulp done with passion can be its own reward, as the veteran Hong Kong filmmaker Dante Lam shows with his feverish cop thriller "That Demon Within."
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
[The] Stephen King-like angle is the richest material in "That Demon Within," which is otherwise another tale of gangsters turning against one another.
Los Angeles Times
Martin Tsai
This Hong Kong import can't resist the urge to dumb down a fascinating premise for the sake of mass consumption.
Boston Globe
Ethan Gilsdorf
There's a half-realized, half-haunting Hitchcockian psychodrama buried somewhere within "That Demon Within." What's on the surface plays more like Wong and Lam simply forgot to take their meds.
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
When "That Demon Within" finally burns down, all that's left is char and ash.
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
It rarely feels like anything more than an effort to pander to the kind of audiences that enjoy Quentin Tarantino's films for all the wrong reasons.
Village Voice
Simon Abrams
That Demon Within often feels like a berserk plot-vending machine.
Variety
Maggie Lee
Action auteur Dante Lam delivers his darkest work to date with this ghoulish supernatural thriller.
The Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
A cagey mixture of action and horror, with a standout performance from Daniel Wu.
