Watch Devil's Pond For Free

Wonderful character development!

So much average

Sadly Over-hyped

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Saw it as HEAVEN'S POND on a rented local DVD back in 2007. Now got me the imported DVD after being unable to find it under that title. Turns out it was released in the United States as DEVIL'S POND. But straight to video. Because of several setbacks during the filming, the producers are overly sensitive about perceived shortcomings of the film, and it wasn't released theatrically. Yet it is Tara Reid's best performance, many agree. And, really, look at it, it's a winner in many ways, it is definitely theater-worthy, even if it is clearly most assuredly not a date movie, no way!So there's one or two goofs with background clutter, a car here, a director's chair there... Really easy to look past that, with this powerful performance by the two young stars.The movie is as popular with me now as it was back in 2007 when I first saw it, and I watch a heck of a lot of stuff, so that's saying something.Highly recommended to all Tara Reid fans, an absolute must- see! And nothing wrong with Kip Pardue's acting. Great location, absolutely beautiful, Montana as a whole, the island in particular. Ugly story beautifully filmed. And Tara is cute.

Kip Pardue plays a psycho who has lots of issues about women, he marries a young hottie.. Tara Reid and he takes her to this cabin where it's out in the middle of nowhere. u gotta boat out to it, no cell phone reception, he doesn't let her out of his site,, it's supposed to be there honeymoon and all, but she is mad cause she can't call her mom, progressively things get worse and the couple start to argue and fight on a regular basis, she eventually tries to escape but of course to no avail, he gets worse and cuffs her, so she can't leave the room, she can't swim either,, so pretty much he can do whatever, i didn't think that Tara Reid did a great job at all,,she can hardly act,,she's mainly just eye candy,, but a pretty good lifetime movie though.

If you are looking for a movie that has a predictable ending and in reality has a pretty far-fetched plot, this one fits the bill nicely. It's not that I didn't like it, I wasn't expecting a blockbuster and I got just what I expected, good cheap entertainment, (I saw it on LMN Network.) Mitch had thought of everything, or almost everything. You can never count on a persons fear to paralyze their actions when their life is at stake. Granted, the acting wasn't all that great at times, but I knew I wasn't watching an Academy Award Nominee. I have read a lot of bad reviews of this movie, one of which stated that the future of America was doomed if someone liked this movie. All I can say is that for me, I can watch a bad movie, which there are plenty of, or I can watch a good movie, and be equally entertained. One doesn't go into a movie such as this looking for answers to solve the world's problem, this movie and others like it are entertainment and entertainment only. Sit back relax and be entertained, even if it's counting the goofs, errors, inaccuracies, etc. Just enjoy.

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?
