The Devil's Pond



 The Devil's Pond is a 2003 film directed by Joel Viertel, and the main cast includes Kip Pardue, Tara Reid and Meredith Baxter. It could be a horror/thriller. Or it's a psychological drama. Still it was scary enough to add. 

A newlywed couple embark on their secret destiny honeymoon, all planned by Mitch who wanted to surprise his loving bride Julianne. However, much to her disappointment, their honeymoon is at a rundown shack on a tiny island in the middle of a lake. There's no reception for phones and no way of keeping in contact with anyone. It's a remote place surrounded by the lake and deep forests with a grave. The trip was meant to be for two weeks but Julianne realises that Mitch is not who he seems.

This film was originally called Heaven's Pond! A forest fire happened on the set of Devil's Pond while filming. It was located at Horseshoe Lake near Libby, Montana. Famous actress Meredith Baxter appears in the beginning at the wedding and she plays the mother of Julianne. There's a great sense of feeling isolated watching this. 

I have to give this a 8/10 for both tension and beautiful scenery.
