User Reviews

Superb short Independent film.

After seeing Angel Connells excellent "Stocking Stuffers" I had to see this film. Although Connell made this one first it is even better with superb direction by Connell and excellent performances everyone involved and especially Robin Reck and Connell himself. Although the subject matter may not be to everyone's taste (I won't go into a plot summery), the movie is quite riveting and holds your attention like few I have seen. The movie is shot on film and it look great, especially the middle section that is shot in high contrast black and white and includes some great dolly and crane work. This is a short film you will not soon forget. Connell has a unique vision that is unlike any other director of independent films I know of. His work is also highly entertaining. See this if you can.
