Product Description:
This quirky psychological thriller involves a quintet of extremely disturbed, sociopathic kids who stumble into the luxurious winter retreat of a wealthy patriarch (Gene Evans) and his arrogant guests.

Rating: - Who Let These Strange Brats Into My House?
"Devil Times Five" must have been one of those "rare gems" shown in grindhouse theatres in the early seventies. It is low budget, amoral cinema meant to shock and repulse, which it does in several creative death scenes. However, the acting is mediocre, and the plot is bogged down with unnecessary promiscuity. I especially detested the deplorable scene where a rich man's bored trophy wife attempts to sexually seduce a mentally challenged handyman. Perhaps all of the adults are somewhat mentally ...

Rating:  - 5 star 70's horror
I feel compelled to write something positive about this DVD release and the company Code Red. Sorry, but the other two reviews on this page are very unkind to this stylish, well acted, accomplished cinematography and very creepy tale. Code Red deserve your support if you are a horror fan, and no I don't work for them, but they are a very small outfit struggling against the big companies. Devil Times Five along with Sole Survivor should be seen by anyone who calls themselves a horror film fan.

Rating:  - horrible Times Five
I was excited when I finally tracked down this film on DVD. It's from what I feel is horror's late age-- the mid seventies to early eighties-- and has the location shooting and low budget grittiness that I love. But that's where my praise stops. This flick is SLOW! Not much happens until the last 15 minutes or so-- and I had long since lost interest in the annoying characters. Awful acting, horrible dialogue. No suspense. Don't expect much, but somewhat fun because it's so bad.
Rating:  - Worst ever
This is by far the worst low budget horror movie I have ever seen. It could fall into the "So Bad It's Good" category. It appears to have been filmed over a weekend with all scenes shot in one take. If you like bad B-Movies you will love it.
The extras with cast members make it worth watching. At least rent it to see what Dawn Lyn (Voted the worst child star of all time) looks like today. One can clearly see why Dawn is still called "The Queen Of Grunge". The best part of this entire DVD are the ... Read More
