The Exorcism Of Devon Sawa


What in the blue hell happened to this kid?

Once upon a time he showed great promise and I foresaw him having a terrific career. I watched this over the weekend and can confidently say I didn't even realise it was him until I came onto IMDB and I'm shocked ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

Also the movie was pants, skidmarked granny pants soaked in the somewhat clichรฉd possession mandatory projectile pea vomit.

๐ŸŽˆCome on Devon, if Downey Jnr can make a career comeback you can.๐ŸŽˆ

he was a regular on Nikita, which was quite a big deal. now he just needs to get into more action star roles, not these cheesy drama roles.

It's ridiculous to, in any way compare Devon Sawa to Robert Downey Jr. Robert Downey Jr. has talent that Devon Sawa can only dream of. The only notable thing Sawa ever did, was one installment of Final Destination.

Embrace reality Platypus.

Don't believe I compared them in any shape or form there slick.
I merely pointed out that it would be nice to see Sawa rise above the schlock he's presently doing as I consider him better than this.

On par with Downey? Absolutely not.
Deserving a renewal, I personally think so.

๐Ÿ‘น Also reality is overrated, this is why I watch so many movies ๐Ÿ‘น

This is what I'm talking about, Bubba. It seemed you were implying Devon Sawa can realize a career like Downey's. Why would you even bring Robert Downey Jr's name up? It definitely leads one to believe you think he's on his path. It's like saying "Please Grandpa, come back to us, if Jesus can resurrect himself, you can too ๎€Œ

I know it's your personal opinion, but I think to even lament Sawa's lack of success is silly. He's an average actor at best and is limited by his appearance, like Seth Green or Edward Furlong, for example.

Cry about someone more deserving, as there are many better actors not given their due.

That statement once again is an acknowledgement that Downey made a triumphant (And unexpected return) not a comparison of his talent with Sawa's.

If were going to play the comparison game I could question why you brought up Green or Furlong. Green has done a great deal but has been as much a behind the camera guy than in front and Furlong........we all know what stunted his career.

It's my opinion that Devon Sawa started off strong and could have gone far but seems to have faded into obscurity and I'd like to see him do more.
Hardly "Crying" about it, just making a mere observation.

Granted however he was terrible in this and looked tired, worn down and unrecognisable.

I compared him to them because if you're being realistic, Seth Green and Edward Furlong are NOT "A" list actors and it's not because Furlong's a drug or alcohol abuser.

Seth Green is about 5 foot 4 inches tall and has very limited prospects due to his size and persona(being more boy than man). If you saw Knockaround Guys, you know what I'm talking about and Furlong's the same way, except on top of that he got chubby and looks like a broken down old lady.

Dustin Hoffman is an ickle fella as well yet succeeded hugely as in my opinion Michael J Fox would have done had his health not gone south.

And Furlong, had potential and has still done a couple of decent films since his return from his "Drug hell" but yeah he looks a mess.

Anyway we digress, I'm not comparing RD Jnr to Sawa, they are worlds apart.

reply

what happened to Devon sawa is what you already know. he had drug problems and now seems to be clean. maybe Sawa enjoys working low budget horror and shows off the cw network


Rob Zombie is one of the greatest directors today
