The tragedy taking place in Darfur as seen through the eyes of an American witness and who has since returned to the US to take action to stop it. Uses the photographs and first hand testimony of former U.S. Marine Captain Brian Steidle to take the viewer on a journey into the heart of Darfur, Sudan, where an Arab run government is systematically executing a plan to rid the province of its black African citizens. As an official military observer, Steidle had access to parts of the country that no journalist could penetrate. Ultimately frustrated by the inaction of the international community, Steidle resigned and returned to the US to expose the images and stories of lives systematically destroyed. We witness Steidle's transformation from soldier to observer to witness and, finally, to passionate activist and moral hero.

| San Francisco ChronicleSteven WinnAn exceptionally powerful film driven by contradictory forces. |
| Hollywood ReporterDuane ByrgeAn unnervingly powerful picture of atrocity. |
| NewsdayJohn AndersonThe failure of world conscience haunts The Devil Came on Horseback. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsIt is not an easy film to watch, nor should it be. It is, however, beautifully made. Annie Sundberg and Ricki Stern, the co-directors, wrangle their information and lay it out clearly, vividly and with a sharp sense of focus. |
| JWRS. James WeggTo balance the chilling reality of the powerful having their unabated way with the miserably weak, the faces of carefree children mugging into the camera is a welcome balm on the wounds of systemic depravity. |

| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. Means[Steidle's photos] cannot be viewed without flinching, but they must be seen by as many people as possible. |
| PopMattersCynthia FuchsThe Devil Came on Horseback means to upset you. To this end, it presents Steidle's photos and very vocal frustrations. |
| Philadelphia WeeklySean BurnsBrian Steidle wants to show you some pictures. Please look at them. |
