I understand from other reviews that Little Devil cost less than £10k, on this basis I'm wading in with an 8 star review. Little Devil is not a brilliant film, however it is a brilliant achievement for the cash laid out. It's not the usual cheap British fare, this is a glossy looking film, that had been made with great time, care and attention.The plot is very thin, but so are some of the best movies, the performances above the line for Low budget Brit horror, it's one of those films that clearly has the edge. Beautifully shot, great sound, above standard story, nice performances. I can't really say much more than you get in the synopsis, give it a chance, and consider the films value.

Theo (David Wayman) and his pregnant girlfriend Rose (Carina Birrell) travel to an isolated camping area by van to spend the weekend. During the night, they are waken by Officer Thwaites (Cameron Jack) that warns the couple that they are in a dangerous area and suggests them to move to a nearby camping. Rose is disturbed with the baby and is haunted by visions and dreadful nightmares. She wants to get rid of the baby but Theo wants to have his son. Along the weekend, Rose has a breakdown with tragic consequences."Wandering Rose" is a tedious B-movie with three characters only where nothing happens. The task of writing a summary is very difficult to be accomplished since there is nothing to tell about. Maybe the most frightening moment is when Officer Thwaites knocks on the van's door. My vote is one (awful). Title (Brazil: "O Bebê do Mal" (The Baby from Evil")

I bought this at the Redbox expecting some sort of demon baby wrecking havoc. If it was intended to be a psychological thriller then I certainly didn't notice it. The movie plods along like something is going to happen, but it leaves me with too many questions than having any of them answered. So is the ghost supposed to be her? Is it supposed to be a friend that died that's passing her baby onto her? Maybe her boyfriend was the devil and he passed something evil onto her? If anyone knows the answer, maybe you can clarify... because I didn't get a single thing about it. I see things of baby talk and camping out in the woods but nothing really makes a whole lot of sense. It doesn't help that the only two options in the DVD - this is from Redbx, so it's to be expected - just the trailer and the film itself. Literally no discussion or talk about what it's supposed to mean. If there's one thing I don't like about indie films like this, too much time goes into trying to be the next 'The Sixth Sense' and 'Rosemary's Baby' but they only cover half or even remotely partly half of what those movies were about. This film left me wanting more and yet deep down I felt cheated... is there some part 2? Was a bulk of the film cut out or something? I have no idea.Next time you make a movie like this, please, for the life of me, give me some clues! The bones are all here but this Halloween treat has no meat to it. I wanted candy but you gave me just the wrappers. No fair, buddy!

It's a good thing that the movie was so dull or I would not have had the chance to fully grow to hate Rose's character. Annoying, whiny, dismissive and selfish. I suppose that indicates good acting, that I had such a strong reaction to her?The soundtrack was interesting and had some odd choices, but it fit with the moments. The acting was fair, but very poor on the part of Officer Thwaites. His odd behavior and strange, creepy way of speaking and looking at them had me thinking he would be a "bad guy". Nope - just weird, apparently.The plot was weak and never reached an adequate conclusion in my view. The action scenes were completely random, without enough back story as to why she would act that way. Just crazy? Lame.It passed a (very brief) amount of time while I was working, but not at all worth seeking out or re-watching.
