_**Conjuring a demon is probably not the best way to handle boy troubles**_ When a college woman (Nell Kessler) in the New Jersey/Brooklyn area discovers her boyfriend cheating she accepts her Wicca friend’s offer to call on a succubus for succor. Havoc ensues. "Lillith" (2019) is micro-budget horror with limited camera angles, dubious cinematography and, occasionally, lousy sound, but the story is compelling and the acting/dialogue good; some of the music’s not bad either. Speaking of the acting, Laurence Fishburne’s son, Langston Fishburne, is on hand for the small role of the professor. But it’s Savannah Whitten who steals the show as the lust demon made flesh. People call this a horror comedy, but it’s really only Whitten’s succubus that’s amusing (in a good way). It’s a refreshing way to approach the material. After all, why wouldn’t an immortal demon relish ‘her’ work with a diabolical sense of humor? The setting and tone are reminiscent of "Decoys" (2004) and “Decoys 2” (2007) mixed with a little "Jennifer's Body" (2009), albeit without the budget. If you don’t mind technical deficiencies, “Lillith” delivers the goods despite a muted palette. For comparison, check out “The Devil’s Nightmare,” aka “The Devil Walks at Midnight” (1971), which is an entertaining classic flick involving a succubus, taking place in a castle in Belgium (on the border of France). The film runs 1 hour, 33 minutes, and was shot in the region of Cranford, NJ, and Brooklyn, NY. GRADE: B-
