Plot holes: When Cerina Vincent's character meets a Native American that knows about the creature she is told that the creature does not like water and therefore stays in it's cave when it rains. In a scene just previous to this the creature stalks and kills another character when it is obviously raining quite hard.

Sweet Taste

An ancient Indian devil is released and there is hell to pay.

Technically well made. Pretty scenery. A suspenseful horror flick. This is another "ancient Indian devil released" story to terrify kids sitting around a campfire on their first camp out. This would scare them. With one or two minor exceptions, the acting was OK. The characters were not real deep or rounded, but that is a "victim" in a horror flick issue. You did know the leading lady had personal problems and a terrible secret she was hiding. She had become a drunk for a reason. Story had the necessary shocker elements. The dead people had the appropriate gore. Some interesting twists and turns as everything and everyone who could help the heroine is stripped away. If you like horror flicks with conflicted people and a little romance, this one is good. If you don't like horror movies, then you won't like this one.
