Devil's Island

The synopsis says that "the locals are less than welcoming and trying to hide a secret." The locals actually succeed in hiding the secret since the movie just stops before we find out what the secret is. I actually liked it pretty well up to the point where it started to become clear that the writers weren't sure what it was all about. It's not stunningly original or anything, but the setup works pretty well; it just sets up and.... the end. It's kind of a shame since a lot of things really seemed to be clicking, like Elaine Alexander's performance. Some plot elements defy common sense, which I suppose comes back to a weak script. Could have been a surprisingly good movie if they'd left that to bake all the way.

There was potential for this movie, but the story was just way too shallow. Sean and Taylor King just never developed it enough. The end result is once done, you can't help feeling "what's the point?". Another waste by amateurs.

I don't normally write reviews but if I can save at least one person from watching this mind numbingly ridiculous garbage, then writing this will be worth it.

So many plot holes, they don't explain anything about anything...

I'd rather eat the stale mouldy popcorn that's stuffed between my couch cushions and watch sharknado than watch this ever again.

Well, if you're really into a girl walking around her island for an hour and eleven minutes, then this is the film for you. By definition a thriller should have some suspenseful moments. The biggest element of suspense was waiting to see what the mute lady was writing!

So we start this one off with a Pawnee myth? And a boat.

And then....confusion, as some girl stares out at a lake, dances around the house, CLOTHED...boring, and walks around an island trying to get a signal on her phone. Uh oh, then she meets malingering old hillbilly on the dock.

Then girl is apparently being stalked. Then weird girl goes out and gets startled by Mort the hillbilly...who decides to come up behind her and grab her shoulder rather than call out to her? -1 star for dumb.

Okay now so she catches this guy Michael walking into her house holding a hammer. And eventually she puts him down. Finally.

Then one month later...She's doing her dancing act again around the house and docks and wherever....and gee...what a lame ending. -1 Star. 3/10.
