Excellent adaptation.
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
"They call Television a medium because nothing is ever well done" _ Groucho MarxMany like to write off the tele-movie as being a simplistic, often badly written and poorly produced piece of videotape and, honestly, often they are right.However in the case of MURDER AT DEVIL'S GLEN the television medium really rises above itself to present a far above average character study with excellent performances from TV actors Noseworthy and Schroeder, teamed with an intelligent and interesting script.The set up is somewhat predictable - 4 college boys involved in the death of a young woman decide to cover it up and eight years later are forced to deal with their actions. But the script takes it somewhere else and the psychological depths are expertly plumbed here.Worth seeing.
New Jerusalem wrote and performed a song called "Take Me Home" as a part of the soundtrack of the film, in addition to the score composed by Dana Kaproff. A great contribution from a band similar to Led Zeppelin in sound and appearance.
The reason I saw this movie is because it was compared heavily to the movie 'I know what you did last summer'. This being one of my favourite movies I decided to give 'What we did that night' a chance. I have to say this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. It may not be a gory movie but it has an amazing plot-line and ending. I kept me guessing right to the end and even then I was suprised by the outcome. Rick Schroder is amazing had plays the evil Henry extremely well. This film is excellent and it is a definite must see.
Surprisingly good after a so-so start. If you guessed the ending then you are really just thinking too hard, just enjoy it.If anyone knows who sung the song half way through (during the beach scene) please let me know.
