Devil's Knight Ratings & Reviews

jackmeatDecember 1, 2024
My quick rating - 3.9/10. The Mahal Empire continues its streak of delivering ambitious indie productions with Devil's Knight, a medieval monster-hunting flick set in the perilous kingdom of Remény. Told primarily in flashback, the film uses a campfire narrative from a battle-scarred soldier to recount the harrowing quest to slay the Bone Devil—a menacing creature whose design seems to take direct inspiration from the theatrical grotesquery of a GWAR concert. Kevin Sorbo, a staple of medieval-themed adventures, feels right at home as Captain Baldur, exuding a commanding yet accessible presence. Angie Everhart shines as the Duchess de Baudicourt, bringing grace and charisma to a sprawling ensemble cast that also includes Eric Roberts and Daniel Baldwin. Fans of Mahal productions will enjoy spotting familiar faces alongside these more recognizable names, enhancing the film's appeal to indie horror aficionados. Visually, this movie embraces its campy charm, showcasing an array of costumed monsters. While their movements betray the limitations of the budget, the creativity behind their designs compensates with sheer entertainment value. Creature from the Black Lagoon’s unexplained imprisonment in the castle adds a peculiar yet amusing touch to the film’s mythology. Director Adam Werth relies heavily on digital blood splatter effects, which, while overused in indie horror, are executed with commendable variation here. The varying spray patterns and sizes elevate what could have been repetitive visuals into something a bit more dynamic. However, the movie isn’t without its flaws. The fight choreography is inconsistent—ranging from engaging sequences to noticeably clunky ones. Editing issues, such as abrupt scene transitions and pacing hiccups, detract from the storytelling’s flow. Despite these shortcomings, the film maintains a certain charm, thanks to its spirited performances and commitment to the genre’s inherent silliness. This film isn’t aiming for perfection; it’s a celebration of indie horror’s ability to blend ambition with unpretentious fun. While it may not be for everyone, fans of Mahal Empire’s signature style will find plenty to enjoy in this medieval monster mash.
