Watch: The Barrens 2012 123movies, Full Movie Online – This movie is about the Vineyard family and their trip to the New Jersey Pine Barrens. There is a legend that the Jersey Devil lives in these woods. It came about after a woman known as Mother Leeds had 13 children, but she offered up the 13th child to the Devil so she and her other children didn’t have to leave their house as they were going to be forced out by the town folk because she was having too many kids in the area back in the 1700s. So it’s now the present, and the Vineyard family are going to camp there so the father (Stephen Moyer) can release his father’s ashes. But while there they hear that someone has gone missing, and Richard (Moyer) thinks it’s the work of the Jersey Devil. So they move their camp site to get away from the rest of the campers only to find that they’re in more trouble than they were before. But is the legend of the Jersey Devil real, or is it just another story?.
Plot: A man takes his family on a camping trip and becomes convinced they are being stalked by the legendary monster of the New Jersey Pine Barrens: the Jersey Devil.

An (at least fractionally) complex horror story based on a cryptid I’m familiar with, but have never seen put to screen before. Cast’s not great, but not worth complaining about either. The central creep is held in reserve, almost certainly for monetary reasons, but it works in _The Barrens_’ favour. I won’t be revisiting this Jersey Devil horror, but I did have an okay time with it._Final rating:★★½ – Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._
Devils and Deers and Bears – Oh my!Alright, lets cut to the chase here, The Barrens, a spin on The Jersey Devil legend, is no uber great movie. Chastised and frowned upon by much of the horror community, you have to wonder just what was expected of a production like this – a pic that’s early notices suggested it was never going to shake the earth of the horror crowd?
The Barrens is competent film making in the context of the budget afforded it. When you look at some of the films that have been churned out on the various sci-fi and horror channels out their in cable land, then this definitely has more going for it.
True! There’s the usual implausibilities and director and writer Darren Lynn Bousman has pacing problems, but there’s good thought gone into the screenplay here, Bousman looking to add a little more to his film than merely being a “monster in the woods” shocker. There’s also decent performances from the cast, which only comes to fruition when things finally go belly up in the last third.
Not one to recommend with any sort of confidence, especially to the tough horror loving crowd, but if you are after a “decent” “B” type horror to view while you are pottering about doing stuff in your lounge (or basements), then it proves itself to be more viable than some Syfy channel trash that is churned out at regular intervals. 5.5/10
A very cool idea but like most movies lately the idea is better then the movie. Not awful but also pretty cookie cutter. I say C+
“The deer, his antlers, it wasn’t the fence that tore them off…it was the Leed’s Devil…Jersey Devil.” Richard (Moyer) is a father who can feel his family slipping away. They don’t do anything together anymore so he decides to pack them all up and drive them out to the woods where he went as a kid for a weekend camping trip. When they get there the hear of a missing person. Richard begins to wonder if the stories he heard about the Jersey Devil are true. This is a movie for true horror fans only. The movie is pretty slow and not very original but on the other hand it is a very neat idea. The biggest problem with this is that once again the idea of the movie is better then the movie itself. The idea of the Jersey Devil is something that is made for a horror movie, but to me this one was just to slow and not really scary enough to fully expand on the “legend” of the devil. This movie really just boiled down to a family going crazy in the woods, which has been done over and over. Fans of the “Hunters” or even “Wrong Turn” may like this but to me it was just too slow and un-original to fully enjoy. Overall, another movie that had a really good idea but ended up being a cookie cutter horror movie. I give it a C+.
Completely disappointing
Talk about a movie in which nothing happens. It’s the typical setup for most monster movies. Family, goes into woods alone, blah blah blah.Half the movie is just getting them onto location with little character building. None of the actors are likable. The acting wasn’t bad though.
One thing that really bothered me was that (spoiler) the movie was about the jersey devil, and it only appeared for 10 seconds at the very end of the movie. It’s like a Jason movie where Jason only has a cameo appearance. (end spoiler)
Overall: Very boring. No scares. Annoying characters. A lot of empty space in the movie, the movie should have been a short.
