Two commandos from New Zealand arrive on the Channel Islands the day before D Day. The aim of the allies is to cause havoc there to distract the Nazis and draw their attention away from Normandy.
They are about to enter a bunker but a Nazi comes out warning them of what's inside. The commandos kill him and enter the bunker. One of them is quickly dispatched. The other is grabbed and bound by the last remaining Nazi in the bunker. A woman constantly screams in the background as the Nazi aims to interrogate the commando who doesn't reveal much. The Nazi managed to grab a photograph from the commando showing a woman, but he won't reveal who she is until the Nazi threatens to burn the photo. That's when the commando starts talking.
The room where they are in is filled with corpses and body parts, there is a book with a pentagram too. When the commando manages to turn the tables he investigates upstairs what's with the screaming woman. But to his surprise, it's his woman, the one from the photograph. The Nazi warns him not to believe his eyes nor what the woman says, that she's some type of female demon who is responsible for the carnage in the bunker and who has an appetite for human flesh. He's the last one of a unit that was sent to look for esoteric artifacts which then the Nazis will try to use for their military advantage. He wants to defeat the demon but needs the commandos help. They engage in a ceremony but the commando wants to eliminate the Nazis as well.
The Devil's Rock sure is small budget. There are only a handful of actors and few locations, but it's a good-looking movie. We are made to spend too much time listening to the Nazi and the commando talk. Still, the movie works. Things improve once we meet the occasionally sexy demon-girl. It could have been even better had they picked a more attractive actress for that role, like the lovely Jessica Grace Smith who gets only a few seconds screen time. The historical and esoteric stuff is well researched and well done. So are the props. There's a bit of good gore and effects. It's a movie with the right ambition for the budget, they didn't try to do something they couldn't do.
