*full disclosure: an online screener of this film was provided by Uncork'd Entertainment. Director: Sevé Schelenz. Writers: Lisa DeVita and Sevé Schelenz. Cast: Wren Walker, Caz Odin Darko, Madison J. Loos, Cameron Dent and Al Dales. Movie reviews can serve various functions. Sometimes, they can help get more seats filled at the movie theatres. Sometimes, they can save people a bit of time. In the case of Peelers, they can serve as a warning; do not see this film! Unfortunately, the screenplay, from first time screenwriter Lisa Devita, is mostly a miss as one might expect. As well, a portion of the cast are also just as inexperienced. Thus, Peelers misses a lot of its marks, especially in the character and plot department areas. The music, from composer Vincent Mai, which will be discussed first, is often on point. However, almost every other filmmaking element is a swing and a miss.
