Devour is a science fictional horror movie released in 2005. The movie stars Jensen Ackles as Jake Gray, a student at the University of Oregon who is studying computer science in hopes of designing a video game that will take over the world. Jake is a brilliant and ambitious student, but something strange and sinister is happening to him that he cannot explain.

Jake starts experiencing terrifying dreams, and he feels as if he is being watched at all times. He also becomes addicted to an online game called The Pathway and becomes obsessed with completing the game's final level. His behavior becomes increasingly erratic, and his friends begin to distance themselves from him.

The only person who seems to understand what is happening to Jake is his girlfriend, Cassie, played by Shannyn Sossamon. However, even she cannot fully grasp the extent of his obsession with the game and his growing paranoia.

As Jake delves deeper into The Pathway, he begins to uncover a dark secret about the game's creator, a mysterious figure known only as the Architect, who seems to be manipulating him for unknown reasons. Jake's obsession with the game and the Architect spirals out of control, leading him down a path of destruction and horror.

Along the way, Jake encounters a cast of eclectic characters, including a mysterious mentor figure named Doc (played by William Sadler) and his own estranged sister (played by Dominique Swain). These characters all play a role in Jake's journey, helping him to uncover the truth about the game and the Architect.

The themes of technology and addiction run throughout the movie, as Jake's obsession with the game and his desire for power drive him to the brink of madness. The movie also explores the darker side of the internet, as Jake becomes increasingly isolated and disconnected from the real world.

The movie is well-paced, with a sense of creeping dread that builds throughout the story. The performances by the main cast are strong, with Ackles giving a particularly intense and unsettling performance as Jake. The special effects are also impressive, with the dream sequences in particular standing out as some of the most memorable scenes in the movie.

Overall, Devour is a solid horror movie with some interesting sci-fi elements. It explores themes of addiction, isolation, and the potential dangers of technology, making it a thought-provoking and engaging watch for fans of both genres.

Devour is a 2005 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 30 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.8.
