This Adventure/Horror is 98% adventure and 2% Horror so even though it's a good watch I have to grade it accordingly. C

Reading the basic plot, I'm reminded a bit of The Demons of Ludlow (a personal favorite), which came out the same year. Definitely looks like something I may want to check out at some point.

Just saw this in the trivia for The Devonsville Terror:

"The Shooting Ranch Film Studio in Gleason, Wisconsin, where this film and The Demons of Ludlow (1983) were filmed, was demolished in 1988."

I lol'd. :P

I'll warn you that the movie's not traditionally great. I enjoy the atmosphere, but I know I'm in the minority when it comes to enjoying the film.

I’ve tried a few on Prime and they really have bought some right tripe. The worst part is they badge them as decent sounding slashers. But they are not.

Will have a look. That sounds better. They seem to have the biggest back catalogue of cheap garbage. A few good ones crop up. But not tons.
