This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Caught this little gem of a movie after it appeared in my Facebook stream. I watched it on my desktop and loved every minute of it. It hit all the right notes and thoroughly satisfied my need for escape. The acting was terrific and the casting was spot on. This indie was well paced and left me wanting a sequel! Taking extreme caution to avoid spoilers, I can just say this: I would download this demon again! Hope to see more from this team of filmmakers.

Many folks out there may know Todd Livingston as a comics guy, best know for the terror tales The Black Forest & The Wicked West, but don't believe for one second that he's a one trick pony! So You've Downloaded A Demon is one of the funniest "horror" comedies I have seen in quite some time. Dave Partridge is running for class president, and while attempting to score with the new goth girl on campus, accidentally becomes possessed by a demon. Now it's up to his computer geek buddy Brian, Miranda the goth princess of his nightmares, Kat her best fiend, and Dr Malcom the excommunicated exorcist to remedy the situation before all hell breaks loose! If you like horror & comedy, this is the flick for you! Exactly what all B-movies should aspire to!!!

Just when you might have been wondering what happened to those light, good-spirited teen comedies from the 80s (You know, the ones that used to play on USA Up All Night.), Todd Livingston resurrects the genre and gives it a contemporary face-lift. Produced on a tiny budget with an unknown but likable cast, the film is pleasantly entertaining. Nothing too deep here. Just a fun story with some clever dialog about a schlep running for class president who gets possessed by a demon from a website. After spouting predictions of mankind's doom in arcane language and copious projectile vomiting, he is ultimately exorcised and, of course, gets a girlfriend. Writer/director Livingston does a humorous turn as the leather-clad non-denominational exorcist. All in all, this movie is a nice twist on a genre that's so old, it might become new again.

I caught a screening of "So, You've Downloaded Demon" earlier this year at an amazing club located in Los Angeles called Cinespace. This shot on video supernatural comedy left me in stitches. Dave (Zak Kreiter) is an awkward but lovable young man who has fallen head over heels for the local goth babe, Miranda (Casidee Riley) but his best bud Brian (Daniel Paul Shafer) would rather Dave concentrate on his bid for Class President. Miranda however is more interested in getting her best friend Cat (Sommer Fain) and herself back into the coven they've recently been ousted from. Unfortunately the key to their re-initiation lies within their computer, which goes kaput. Dave attempts to dabble with their hard drive, hoping to get in good with his elusive crush, but ends up being possessed by a narcissistic demon the night before his big debate. Obviously, things go awry as the hapless group does everything they can to save Dave, which usually leads to outrageous results.Shot on video in Billings, Montana, "So, You've Downloaded a Demon" has a lot going against it. No big names, an ultra-low budget and fairly high concept ideas usually don't go over too well at this end of the spectrum, but director/co-writer Todd Livingston and his writing partner, Nicholas Capetanakis make the most of what is around them, creating an engaging, and often time fall-on-your-knees hilarious comedy that almost defies simple definition. Honestly, I'm not quite sure how they pulled it off. A lot of the credit goes to the fine cast (including Todd and Nicholas who put in good cameos), especially Sommer Fain and Daniel Paul Shafer, who are given the best the lines and deliver them with confident zeal. For sure those two should pack their bags and head out to Hollywood to pursue a film career.This movie is perfect for fans of indie cinema who are fed up with filmmakers who play within the conventions of their genres, never venturing far outside the realm of what is easy to accomplish. These guys really took a chance with their idea and execution, and truly deliver one of the best indie features I've seen in long, long time. The soundtrack by Andy Kubiszewski of Stabbing Westward fame is just as charming as the film itself… And if you like projectile vomit, creepy ventriloquists and bald exorcists, then this movie is a double must for you!!!
