Devil's Cove

Okay, I HAD to see this movie when I read something about Ed Wood, and I gotta say it's pretty accurate. It's definitely not the best made movie or anything, but I think there's a lot of funny stuff in there that people overlook, like the part where they're all snorting cocaine with straws was amazing, and the lady who talks about killing herself made me laugh every single time, and the kid who was so excited to have sex with the girls because he's never had sex was great. It's campy and a little over the top, but I think that works with the way the film is made. I really hope this movie finds an audience, because B movie lovers like me would eat it up.

I found myself really enjoying this little film that screened at the Laemmle. While done on a tiny budget the story was solid and the acting pretty good. I tend to be a low budget horror movie fanatic and have to say this is certainly not your standard horror. However it is clever and more of a "road" movie thriller with incredibly witty dialogue. Chloe Traicos is definitely the main reason to watch this movie. As the sociopathic Jackie she is quite electrifying and brilliant to watch. I enjoyed many of the characters in the movie especially Jim the barman who was played by Asger Folmann - a fantastic actor who I wanted to see more of. On the whole a solidly good little film. Would definitely recommend it.

Brimming with great performances and dramatic scenes, this is one truly awesome film taking female oriented drama to a whole new level. This story is a feminist version of an outlaw road movie. It tells the story of Toni Duval (Christelle Baguidy) , an outsider to the bizarre town of Devil's Cove, who falls for the mysteriously charismatic Jackie ( Chloe Traicos). The two girls embark on an intense affair and when Toni's husband, Rick ( Cameron Barnes) attempts to keep them apart, the girls murder him and flee town. Chloe Traicos is fantastic . Her performance alone is worth watching the movie for. Although it has to be said the entire cast is truly brilliant. Christelle Baguidy also gives an eloquent and compassionate performance. Barnes too is frighteningly convincing as the vilifying wife beater. A truly good, well written independent masterpiece!

As a horror movie fanatic I loved this clever little piece. I found the story riveting and the script quirky and fun. It almost has a Tarantino touch in that you find yourself laughing at the most inappropriate moments. As far as independents go it's right up there. I thought Chloe Traicos was brilliant in her performance as Jackie McGann the evil sociopathic killer and Christelle Baguidy was also very good as the vulnerable sweet Toni. There is a little bit of overacting in parts but in many ways this adds to it.

Favorite scene: Definitely Jackie rescuing the gang at the police station.

Loved this cleverly delivered little masterpiece. It's frankly what the independent film world needs right now in this world of racism and bigotry. Here you have an intense love story between an interracial lesbian couple. A couple who murder the abusive men in their lives and move on. Yet have to flee the law and live in hiding. During which time the main protagonist Toni learns that her lover Jackie is anything but the perfect lover she once thought. However this film looks at the levels of human relationships in an incredibly new and different light. It realistically portrays a deadbeat small town Devil's Cove and its portrayal of all the characters and their reactions through the events of the film is really quite adept. Definitely recommending to all indie lovers out there.
