Good digital indie film I saw at the SMMASH film festival

I saw this film at the SMMASH Film Festival and for being a digital film shot for less than $8000, at least that's what the reported budget is, it's pretty good. The film is pretty intense because of the great music and the acting was really strong from a bunch of actors I never heard of. I would recommend seeing this film if you like indie films and like films that play fast, it was over before I knew it, which is a good thing. The killer in this film was probably the best character in the entire film, he looks familiar but I don't know what else he has been in. Also the drum playing character is really funny and breaks up this dark crime drama. This is the director's first film and while he's no Quentin Tarantino he definitely has his own unique style, I give this film an 8 overall.
