The Barrens Blu-Ray Review
Synopsis: It's known as the Jersey Devil, the winged beast spawned 400 years ago by Satan himself. Some say this creature still inhabits the dense pine forests of southern New Jersey, where Richard Vineyard (Stephen Moyer, ''True Blood'') takes his family for a rustic weekend camping trip. As the Vineyard family ventures further into the woods in search of the perfect campsite, Richard teeters on the edge of sanity. And it seems that the blood-crazed demon called The Jersey Devil may no longer be just a myth. Mia Kirshner (''The Vampire Diaries,'' ''The L Word''), Erik Knudsen (SAW II, SCREAM 4) and Allie MacDonald (HOUSE AT THE END OF THE STREET) co-star in this twisted chiller from writer/director Darren Lynn Bousman (SAW II-IV) about a new kind of horror that lives -- and kills -- in a place called THE BARRENS.
Review: A man goes to spread the ashes of his father in the woods and is hunted by the legendary terror of New Jersey..the Jersey Devil. Reactions to this film seem to be mixed, but we enjoyed it. The film focuses on the horror of this mythical creature, but the movie challenges the viewer with questions about whether this monster exists or is Richard simply going mad? The answer may surprise you, it did us. This one is a good watch.
Interest Range: Thriller
