About This Movie

Devoured (2000) is a curious blend of romance and corporate intrigue. Mark Reeves, played by Mark Davis, embodies the archetype of the wealthy businessman searching for something more – in this case, love. The film unfolds against the sultry backdrop of Mexico, where the chemistry between him and Silvia Saint's character, Silvia Cabrera, simmers with tension and allure. The pacing is somewhat uneven, but it adds to the unsettling atmosphere of obsession that permeates the narrative. While the performances have their moments, it's the practical effects that occasionally stand out, lending an authentic feel to certain scenes. Overall, it's a film that explores desire, power dynamics, and the often complicated dance of relationships.

Devoured had a limited release, which makes it somewhat of a rarity for collectors. The film was initially released on VHS, with a DVD version following, though it's not widely available. Interest in the film has grown over the years, particularly among fans of late '90s to early 2000s cinema. Copies in good condition can be hard to come by, so it piques the curiosity of those who appreciate niche films from that era.
