Devil's Cove

I went to this movie quite by chance and ended up really liking it. It's a cute, low budget 21st century version of Thelma and Louise, only this time the girls are lesbians and one is pure evil. The film is the story of Toni, played by Christelle Baguidy, a young naive girl who has moved with her husband to his crazy home town of Devil's Cove. There she meets the charismatic but completely malevolent Jackie, Chloe Traicos, who she embarks in a complicated lesbian affair with. When Rick Cameron Barnes, Toni's abusive husband attempts to stop her affair, Toni and Jackie murder him in cold blood. The story takes on several interesting twists and turns the main one being that Toni is not the sweet innocent she first appears to be. Aside from the strong, exciting story line the movie is packed with interesting characters and amusing dialogue that keeps you fully entertained the whole way through. The performances are brilliant especially Traicos who you cannot stop watching. Fully recommend !

I did enjoy this movie which is done in the gritty, Blair Witch, low budget style. It certainly keeps you guessing the whole way through. The whole lesbian, interracial couple thing was a big politically correct, almost like trying to make Thelma and Louise in the 21st century. However it does pull together well and is surprisingly funny in parts. I found the acting a little weak except for Chloe Traicos who is remarkable, taking over every scene she is in. Rebecca Tudor, who has a tiny role is also brilliant. I would have probably changed the ending to something more dramatic, Thelma and Louise style but on the whole this baby does work!

Chloe Traicos gives a raw, blazing performance of psychotic killer, Jackie McGann. Her performance alone makes the movie worthwhile. Yet it is not the only thing that holds the film together. " Devil's Cove" is a dark yet oddly humorous story about two girls, Toni ( played by Christelle Baguidy) and Jackie ( played by Traicos) who murder Toni's bullying husband Rick and escape the confines of their small town of Devil's Cove The journey the girls go on goes from being scary to brutally terrifying as Toni discovers that her lesbian lover is in fact a cold hearted killer. I think this movie is a film that takes the idea of feminism to a whole new level. The men are easily disposed of while it is the women who steal the show. A gutsy piece that I would certainly recommend

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.

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.
