The Devil's Rock is low-budget horror at its finest. Not that the film ever gives away so much as a single hint of its low-budget origins, as the acting, direction, special effects, and set decorations are as good as it can possibly get and would stand head to shoulder against any big budget studio contender. It has everything you’d ever need to tell the story of an allied soldier that, during World War II, has to band together with a Nazi officer to battle the forces of Hell while trapped inside a German bunker, and director Paul Campion has from that simple premise skillfully crafted a horror film with far more intelligence and psycological intricacies than you'd ever think possible. Add to that a healthy helping of claustrophobia, terror, and devilish delights, and what you’ve got is one of the finest single-location fright flicks to come along in a decade or two.
