Wow! This one's bad! I can't say I've sat through crap like this in a while. Strictly for Ken "Dawn of the Dead" Foree, and possibly Zoe "Grindhouse" Bell completists only, "Devil's Den" is the brainchild of stuntman/writer Mitch Gould, who should definitely stick with stunt work. Directing chores fell to Jeff "Stepfather II" Burr, who had his name removed from the project, but forgot to do the same with the laughably pretentious making-of featurette included on the DVD. Tough luck for him. The plot is slim to none: two dolts smuggling Spanish fly (???) stop at a fleabag strip joint that turns out to be populated by bimbo ghouls. A bloated Foree, who's obviously taking a paycheck, plays some sort of government agent who tracks down monsters, and Kelly "The Scorpion King" Hu is a government assassin. Devon "Final Destination" Sawa plays the dolt who survives the initial ghoul attack, and spends the rest of this yawner proving that he badly needs some cosmetic dental work. The gore is unremarkable, the naked boobies are few and far between, and the screenplay would give Syd Field apoplexy; mediocre is far too generous a term for this cheapo "From Dusk Til Dawn" ripoff. If this direct-to-video bomb really cost $1.5 mil, I'd sure like to know where the money went. Probably the catering service. You've been warned.
