"Tam-Lin", also known as "The Ballad of Tam-Lin", "The Devil's Widow" and "The Devil's Woman", is a 1970 British film made by Commonwealth United Entertainment, Winkast Film Productions Ltd. and distributed by American International Pictures (AIP). It was directed by Roddy McDowall and produced by Alan Ladd, Jr. and Stanley Mann, from a screenplay by William Spier based on Robert Burns' poem "The Ballad of Tam Lin". The film had original music by Stanley Myers and was photographed by Billy Williams.

The film stars Ava Gardner and Ian McShane with Richard Wattis, Cyril Cusack, Stephanie Beacham, Sinéad Cusack and Joanna Lumley.

The film was originally marketed as a horror film. A newer release (1998) (Republic Pictures Home Video) re-cut the film to be closer to Roddy McDowall's intention.
