Jon Gale, Steve Callahan, Michael Hampton, Stephen Twardokus, and JD Scalzo in Devil's Path (2018)
In the early 90's, two strangers meet in a wilderness park where gay men cruise for sex. What seems like an innocent and random meeting quickly descends into a horrific nightmare.

As they flee further into the woods to escape the danger, they begin to understand that the greatest danger of all may be closer than either of them realizes. Will these two strangers be able to work together to defeat the darkness that has settled in on Devil's Path? Or will their own secrets and lies lead them to be the next two missing persons in this perilous park?

    Poor lighting

    The action scenes after dark are so dark you can't tell who is going after whom. Might as well turn the screen off and guess what is going on by hearing just the soundtrack.

    Actually Quite A Good Psychological Exploration Of Loneliness

    This was a real surprise - good photography, superlative acting from Stephen Twardokus; he stole the whole movie for me.

    A read a few reviews before i decide to watch a movie but its getting quite hard to garner the proper reviews from the shills but still it astounds me how many people cannot properly review a movie - we now have the shills who are bigging up movies with constant 10/10 reviews - this means its the best movie you have ever seen and these come by once in a blue moon, then there are the ones who just review a movie on the criteria that its not real life or the plot is too bizarre - life is bizarre; going to the cinema is all about being removed from reality; its called fiction.

    So here is how i review a movie - If it keeps me watching ,involved and i can leave reality behind and become immersed in the film regardless of how unconventional the plot or story is - i don't go looking for mistakes or whether anything is of the period, if the soldiers have the correct jacket lapel or drives the right jeep - who does that?

    If the movie elicits emotions; a tear or two or makes you feel good, bad or makes you think then that is a success for me and this film does many of those things - it is well shot and in the end it does ask us questions of our lives and how we live them. I found the end very touching and I am sure this is what the writers were attempting to give to the viewer, perhaps from their own experiences of life and that makes it a good movie for me. It is not oscar winning material nor does it pretend to be but it has something more to say than the usual stalk, slash, blood and gore horror movies and i like that so sue me!

    Not great

    The story is weak. The characters are weak. The premise is entirely unbelievable at best.

    Turn off the dialogue

    About halfway in, I turned the settings on my surround sound speakers off for the dialogue. Without the weird and disjointed plot and script, the cinematography and music were atmospheric and tense. There were a number of scenes that were intense and claustrophobic, and coveyed a very real sense of unease, fear and suspicion.

    Then I looked up the actual plot. And it was terrible. It really was a shame this movie's story brought the film down. The photography and lighting were pretty good, as was the accompanying soundtrack.

    good intentions

    I saw with sympathy the first part. With hope, in same measure, to. But the final feeling was about an unrealistic story, saved by JD Scalzo good look and by forest, remembering other films from same genre, and proposing a sort of not very inspired chain of improvisations. And the end, expression of good intentions, works not fine exactly.

    Two guys on bench, in forest. Talk, confessions, the bad men hunting them, in a small place discovering the truth about them, a lost brother and terrible childhood, a murder of past and a bizarre survive after knife hit today and , in essence, unfortunately, nothing new. The dark of few scenes is so...dark than the effort to identify the people is one of precious gifts.

    Sure, good intentions. But, after final credits, some bitter taste about waste of time.
