Synopsis
Toby (David Hayter), Cally (Maria del Mar), and Jackie (Casey Hudecki) are kidnappers trying to deliver their two captives to Mr. Arkadi (Frank Moore), their employer and a powerful mob boss. The trip is long and things aren't helped out by Toby being easy to rile up. They decide to take a detour in the hopes of making it to their destination that much quicker, but things take a turn for the worse when one of their captives is accidentally killed and the group finds that they have stumbled into something supernatural.

Reception
Shock Till You Drop panned the film overall, criticizing the film's script and direction, as they felt that O'Brien "goes overboard with the tricks and gimmicks." Bloody Disgusting was also highly critical of the film and commented that they saw the film as being "weird for weirdness sake, without any real thematic or pulpy endgame in mind" and wrote that "It’s like filmmaker Joseph O’Brien is pounding you over the head with his alleged self-importance without having anything to back it up. It’s a frustrating experience." In contrast, Twitch Film gave an overly favorable review for Devil's Mile, praising the film's visual elements, script, and post effects, stating that "O'Brien displays the right amount of patience to get the right amount of tension out of his audience."
