Forgiveness is the greatest virtue

There are many horror movies with multiple people dying in the back room, and I especially like this one. The reason is that the crime committed by the surviving men and the scars of the police are cleverly matched. Forgiveness is the greatest virtue, and choosing to forgive also requires the greatest courage. The last line of the movie really touched me: every time my mother finished telling a story, she would comfort me by saying that if the devil is real, so is God. I know this cop is the "God" whose forgiveness broke the devil's rules and saved the lives and souls of the surviving men.

Devil quotes

  • [last lines]

    Ramirez: [voiceover] After my mother would finish her story, she would always comfort us. "Don't worry," she'd say. "If the Devil is real, then God must be real, too."

  • [first lines]

    Ramirez: [voiceover] When I was a child, my mother would tell me a story about how the Devil roams the Earth. Sometimes, she said, he would take human form so he could punish the damned on Earth before claiming their souls. The ones he chose would be gathered together and tortured as he hid amongst them, pretending to be one of them. I always believed my mother was telling me an old wives' tale.
