Devil' Den (2006)



The Good:

Surprisingly funny (as long as you can take nice lowbrow horror comedy).
Cliches that actually add to the plot... I'm sorry, I don't actually mean to imply there's a plot.
Supernatural butt-kicking action.
Kelly Hu.
A lot of fun if you let it be, or you could MST3K it and enjoy it on that level.

The Bad:
Paper-thin plot.
Characters that are ridiculously melodramatic.
Strangely little "Adult Content" to be set in a strip club.
Nothing novel or particularly well-done about it...

Overall: I say, let yourself go and indulge in some monster killing mayhem for a bit. It's a poor man's From Dusk Til Dawn - but if you don't expect too much, you might just enjoy it (or you might not).
