1/10
probably the worst film you will ever see

McDowell should've quit while he was ahead.. In 1971.. When he did A Clockwork Orange. This film is up there with the biggest cinematic disasters of all time. An amalgamation of poor acting, terrible storyline and awful filming makes for one of the least exciting and gripping films I have ever watched. The lead role - Luke O'Brien, appears to be played by someone with no acting experience whatsoever. Honestly, at times you can't tell whether it's done deliberately it is so bad. The only thing this film may have had going for it was the remotely interesting subject matter and religious debate, but alas, this opportunity was thoroughly missed, and there is no real message conveyed by the film. I can deal with bad acting, a loose plot and not much production value, but the ending was really the deciding factor in me ranking this film lower than any other I have seen, and inspiring my first IMDb review. It is a longshot to get anyone to take a film with the title "Suing the Devil" seriously, and this is made exponentially harder by the fact that at the films climax, he wakes up, and in true children's story fashion, "it was all a dream". As if this poor excuse for a film could get any worse, then that happens, the true nail in the coffin of one of the worst films ever. My advice is steer well clear of this train wreck of a film.
