Set in the small fictional town of "Devil's Cove" a place where dropouts and criminals tend to flock, super naive and newly married Toni meets the dangerous and badass Jackie McGann. The two embark on a dangerous romance that knows no bounds. When they are threatened by Toni's husband, Rick, a convicted rapist, they commit a murder and have to make a run for it. Chloe Traicos' performance as the sociopathic bad girl Jackie McGann is so unnervingly brilliant that it almost threatens to overshadow the whole film. But not quite. "Devil's Cove" is a movie with a lot of backbone and great performances all round. Intensity is the name of the game in this debut feature by Erik Lundmark. It is a story with guts and determination, brilliantly shot and edited. Flawless performances combined with great, direction make this a wholly absorbing drama laced with humor and tragedy. And the soundtrack is terrific!
