Sheitan (2006)

After we watched Dan in Real Life, we watched this movie like it was a train wreck in our living room. It's bad. Really really bad.

It's about a group of remarkably racially diverse French kids (a white guy, a black Muslim guy, a Mid-Eastern Muslim girl, and an Asian guy) who somehow run into a girl who takes them to her house in the middle of nowhere (have to move sheep in the road to get to the house) where her "housekeeper" Vincent Cassel is super creepy. Apparently, Cassel was possessed by the devil or some nonsense and impregnated his sister (who is, uber creepy, Vincent Cassel in a wig). For whatever reason, Cassel has to get things from these kids--clothes, eyeballs--in order to make a doll for the baby his sister is carrying. It seems as if this is a repeating thing because the town is also filled with strange and creepy malformed people. Meanwhile, all of the kids are attempting to hook up with one another--yep, there is a shortage of girls in that situation so two guys make-out with the one at once.

It's not a good movie. Only watch it if you have a strong desire to see Vincent Cassel at his creepiest.
