Excellent 1987 TV Film -- Better than "Rosemary's Baby"
Amazon seems to have two "Bay Cove"s mixed-up: The dvd cover presented refers to the 1987 TV film with Pamela Sue Martin, Tim Matheson and Woody Harrelson; yet the description refers to the 1993 TV series with Isla Fisher and Christopher Fare.

If you order this, which one will you get?

I don't know, but the 1987 film is well worth catching. Martin and Matheson star as a couple that move to Devlin Island off the coast of Massachusetts and run afoul of a coven of witches. Despite the low-budget this TV film is very well made and engrossing, not to mention extremely creepy. It is actually much BETTER than the similarly-themed feature film "Rosemary's Baby," maybe not on a technical level, but at least as far as story, locations and cast. Pamela Sue Martin (aka Nancy Drew) is incredibly alluring.

The 4-Star rating reflects the fact that this is a low-budget TV production, other than that it's a 5-Star endeavor.

If you want to make sure you get this 1987 film (rather than the 1993 version) Amazon has another page for this film, albeit without the cover image. Check it out.

Very good 80s tv terror!
The dvd box made me thnk it was a new horror flick,but it's really a well-made made-for-tv horror movie from the 80s(dig those hairdo's!)with people like Pamela Sue Martin,Woody Harrelson,and Barbara(Mrs Cleaver)Billingsley as an evil witch!A husband and wife move to an isolated island off the coast of Massachusettes or an easier,calmer life and discover things and people aren't what they seem.With nods to THE SENTINEL and other classic horrors BAY COVE is worth a look.

Bay Cove
PLOT: a young couple, hoping to escape the troubles of everyday life, move into a farmhouse on an isolated island. Soon, however, they discover that their neighbors are members of a Satan-worshipping cult...and they're the next human sacrifices.

MY REVIEW: I picked this up a store for [...], not expecting a whole lot. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that this is actually a really well crafted horror film! the acting was top-notch, there was a sense of creepiness and unease throughout, and there was a lot of suspense. I enjoyed the appearance of Woody Harrelson as the ill-fated Slater. I was also surprised to see Barbara Billingsley as one of the cult members. Who'd a thought that Mrs. Cleaver would turn out to be a murderous devil worhipper? The only complaint I have is that the pace dragged a little at parts, but it wasn't much of a problem. Anyway, if you're looking for a good old fashioned creepy horror movie, definately pick this up.

ACTING: Pamela Sue Martin was believable and likable as Mrs. Lebon. Tim Matheson won me over as Mr. Lebon, he put on a really good show. Barbara Billingsley really creeped me out as Beatrice. Brrrr. Woody Harrelson was a hoot to watch as Slater. He put in a good performance.

GORE: none. this film relies on the atmosphere, which is a good thing in my book.

OVERALL: 4/5
