thoughts: Devil’s Bend is an unsettling, atmospheric screenplay that will keep you guessing and on your toes. It can be made for a modest budget: primarily set in one location, primarily a two-hander with just a handful of additional characters. Repulsion meets The Shining meets Gaslight. Two indelible roles for the right actors.
