5.0 out of 5 stars
I was amazed...for what this movie was made for., January 25, 2003

I work at Blockbuster and took home a copy of this film knowing a little about the history of it. First let me say, bottom line this movie is entertaining, with a unique style... About the film, I heard it was Chris Mazzei's first film. He shot it for under $400,000, and he was only 21 years old. I have seen movies made for millions of dollars that are complete [garbage] and aren't as good as this flick. If you watch this movie, you will be more amazed of what this kid did for the money he had. When in a time a $5,000,000 film is considered to be low budget. So I think if this up and coming director had the money of Doug Liman's "GO", you would hear about how finally there is a movie that "GO" should have been! Devious Beings is worth the rent.

What I thought would be a typical low budget flick, turned out to be a high quality and highly entertaining movie. I really recommend buying or at least renting a copy!

DEVIOUS., February 1, 2003
This review is from: Devious Beings (DVD)
I liked this film, I think it could have been better in areas. But as a whole it was done well. I am a film student and just finished a short, I can't even fathom shooting this feature. I also heard it was made for $50,000 not $400,000. If that is the case, what this filmmaker did for the money is on the same talent as what Robert Rodriguez did with "El Mariachi". If you can look past a boom shadow here and there and focus on the guts of the film, you will enjoy it. It is a very COOL film and if you don't get that, you will not understand it. I have read that people thoght the dialoge was cheesy. I beg to differ, the movie does have a cheesy line every so often, but the charaters make fun of them. Worth the rent, I bought it. Can't wait to see what this filmaker is going to do next.
