Review of Demonlover

Demonlover (2002)
6/10
Corporate takeovers were never THIS hostile
9 February 2008
Superior thriller about a corporate spy (Connie Neilsen) caught up in the big money, cutthroat world of internet porn. The film is filled with wonderfully shady characters, hidden agendas, and weird plot twists as Neilsen's attempts at sabotaging a deal with an adult anime company lead to unexpected revelations about the nature of the internet entertainment trade. While it moves like a suspense drama, it makes so many points and takes so many swipes at how otherwise normal seeming people are not above using the internet to peep at the lowest forms of degradation that it almost plays like satire. An interesting and very different kind of movie, with a frightening ending that hits very close to home.
