Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Leofwine_draca DEVIL GIRL is an awful little indie thriller that tries to be an edgy road movie and fails at every step. It involves a maladjusted young woman interacting with various weird characters she meets en route to her destination (to nowhere), chiefly a kooky guy in clown make-up who shows up to irritate the viewer at regular intervals. The supporting cast seems to be entirely made up of creeps and weirdos, while our underacting protagonist hides out in motel rooms and cries a lot. It's extremely lame.

MBunge This is an 80something minute long version of a Rob Zombie music video, but with not nearly enough nudity, violence and general depravity to justify its existence. There's enough interesting and provocative imagery here to sustain about 4 minutes of screen time. The rest of Devil Girl is an extended demonstration of how these filmmakers don't know what the hell they're doing.The feeble excuse for a story concerns Fay (Jessica Graham), a young woman who decides to journey along historic Route 66 after the death of he mechanic father, and a guy wearing clown make-up (Joe Wanjai Ross) who pops pills, babbles a lot and is apparently on some sort of crime spree. Fay and the Clown wind up stuck in the same worthless dessert town, where Fay has to take a job as a stripper and winds up dry humped in her motel room by a guy in a leather mask and the Clown just sort of wanders around. Fay and the Clown both encounter or hallucinate a red-skinned Devil Girl (Vanessa Kay), complete with horns and a pointy tail. Devil Girl strips for the Clown, has sex with Fay and confronts the town preacher (C. J. Baker). After implying that what's going on is real, a medically induced fantasy and some sort of purgatory, the film ends with one of those fake-outs that are supposed to blow your mind but only prove that nobody involved with this production had a clue as to what sort of story they were telling or why.Aside from a few decent visuals like Devil Girl herself, Jessica Graham turns in a nice and believable performance. There's also some female nudity here, though the movie goes long stretches without it. Um…that's about it for the positives of Devil Girl.The negatives? Well, this movie lists the bands on the soundtrack in the opening credits, so I knew right away there were going to be a lot of problems. I mean, who puts soundtrack contributors in the opening credits of their movie? Devil Girl has only the vestigial remains of a plot, dialog that ranges from the mundane to the banal and acting that would just barely cut the mustard at most community theaters, but I think I can sum up the plain and simple lameness of this film by looking at just one scene.You'd think that when Fay and Devil Girl have sex, it would at least be some cheap titillating fun. Jessica Graham and Vanessa Kay are both quite attractive and how can you go wrong with a human-demon lesbian tryst? Well, filmmakers Tracy Wilcox and Howie Askins found a way. To start with, most of the scene happens in shadow and what we can see is illuminated in red light. That means you can't see the contrast between the flesh of Fay and Devil Girl. Then it's all edited together in such a quick and random manner that it is impossible to tell what's being done and who is doing it to whom. The only purpose of the scene is to satisfy a little prurient interest and Wilcox and Askins can't get out of their own way enough to do it.The bottom line on Devil Girl is that it's too dull and pointless to make it as an ordinary film, yet also lacks the excessive gore, sex and otherwise shocking material to qualify as some sort of out-there, taboo breaking experience. Skip it.

Howie Askins In a world where teenage vampires are the pop norm, "Devil Girl" is a welcome breath of fresh air. An aggressive soundtrack, creepy, surreal imagery and a fast paced mind f@%! of a story makes for a really unique counter culture film.While admittedly the story is far from typical,(and frankly, oddly amorphous)it is fun feeling that at any moment, that which seems to be reality might be revealed as yet another head trip fantasy. With its fast cars, sexy girls and psychedelic drugged out visuals, this is a flick for fans of movies like "Natural Born Killers" and "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas." Some folks just aren't going to get it, but for others, it is cult dynamite.

Scarecrow-88 Pill-popping, evil-grinning psycho in clownface, often spouting gibberish, whose stolen vehicles always go dead on the highway. Female drifter running away from her past. Perverted preacher with secrets. A sleazy motel owner who offers suggestive remarks to our heroine as she woefully awaits her opportunity to clear out of this godforsaken place. A "Devil girl" who pops up at random to greet each character.This snoozefest lured me in with quite the seductive poster. The titular character is barely a factor at all, seemingly present as a means to draw viewers to rent the movie. Spent a lot of energy trying to keep from dosing off. These guys couldn't even deliver a good lesbian scene, for my troubles. Hard metal soundtrack loudly erupts often during the film to give it an "edge." Strip club sequences featuring Fay are much lighter than they should've been under the circumstances, although she looks quite enticing in her dominatrix outfit.Fay, whose sweet ride needs a fuel pump, must endure stripping at a dust-bowl desert town's strip club and renting a ratty dump of a motel room while waiting for the part to come in so she can get out of dodge. She's haunted by loss, among other things, and was unknowingly looted by the loony clown, all the money(..and wallet to boot)in her possession, stolen out from under her nose while seeking gasoline to continue to the uncertain future she had charted herself.The film has one of those "gotcha" twists at the end that is positively groan-inducing, and seems to be put here just for the hell of it. Jessica Graham is quite a sexy lead and not that bad an actress actually. Vanessa Kay is costumed and body-painted completely red, even given a tail to choke, whip, and spank if she so feels like it. The California setting is appropriately depressing..you do not want to wind up stuck in a place like this.
