VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
michaelkemper Really writers wow what a stupid scene with Tara trying to get away truck won't turn over and she's sitting there in truck w shotgun. Tara grabs the shotgun loads shotgun and then nothing.Why not shoot Kip when he breaks the truck window? I mean there should have been a shotgun blast even if you miss him would of been better than just just end scene and wow now she's back at cabin chained up. Wow what a thriller that was.Should keep audience interested I wanted to turn show off after that scene. I mean really if you were in her place would you not shoot your abusive psycho husband in that instance? Cause if you wouldn't why grab shotgun and load it? There is also Kip breaks window and you don't even drag Tara out of truck boring.
b-litten I don't know what some of these other reviewers were thinking.. Whatever they're smoking that makes them think this is the best movie ever, I want some. Psychological thriller? Please. I think not. How about calling it like it is-- a predictable, boring, lame movie with laughably-bad acting. Tara Reid and whoever this Kip guy is, should take whatever they made from this movie and either A) buy some acting lessons or B) donate it to someone who actually works for a living (and does whatever they do WELL)... It seems to me that they both got up the first morning of shooting, bought DSM manuals, read some descriptions of mental illnesses, and decided hey, I'll do that.. that sounds like an easy thing to portray.If I could give this zero stars I would.
mario_c It's a nice thriller about a couple that goes on honeymoon to a desert little island in the middle of a lake, in the woods, far from everything. In the beginning everything seems to be fine, the couple is in love, as it is supposed to be on a honeymoon, until the day that she wants go back home and he doesn't… then, step by step, she will find out why he did chose that place to spend their honeymoon… The film is reasonably suspenseful, in spite of not having any major twist, and the plot is quite good too. The acting is also fine. Though, this kind of plot isn't really a novelty, so I think I won't score it more than 6/10.
Suzie Lewis First of all a warning, this movie is awful! It contains bad acting, many plot holes and things that just don't make any sense!Tera Reid plays the little rich girl we already know who winds up married to a psychotic stalker. Somehow she thought he was completely normal until they spend a couple of weeks at their honeymoon spot on a tiny island.Also, Tera is scared of water which foreshadows the fact that she will be trapped on this island unless she can conquer her fear. Since this movie is a 'woman=good man=bad' type movie you can already predict the sequence of events and the ending.Reid does a better job at acting than her male companion but that isn't to say she's good. She goes from looking like she's going to have a breakdown to just looking out of it...maybe she was just drunk on set. Who knows?As for the rest of the movie, it's filled with magical cigarettes that don't get soaked when swimming, a diet of only pond water and meat (which I must say, there must be a water filter around that island because with Tera's shaved legs and fluffy hair, there's got to be chemicals in there), and a man that can take a frying pan to the face and a bear trap on his ankle but gets woozy when hit with a piece of wood.So, that is Devil's Pond in a nutshell. If you are wondering why I gave it a 3 instead of a 1; it's because I got a laugh out of it. Will it also humor any of you to tell you I watched this film on Lifetime?
