Don't Kiss the Devil

About This Movie

Don't Kiss the Devil is one of those oddities from the late '80s that hangs somewhere between teen slasher and supernatural horror. The pacing is a bit uneven, but that's part of its charm. It starts off with this laid-back vibe as a group of friends heads to a vacation house, but soon the atmosphere shifts into something dark. The performances feel genuine, especially given the context of their impending doom. Practical effects are where the film really stands out, capturing some gnarly moments that evoke a certain rawness. And let's not forget the underlying themes of temptation and the consequences of youthful recklessness. It’s a low-budget affair, sure, but there’s a certain unique flavor to it that makes it memorable in its own right.
