I know what Victoria Negri‘s debut feature, Gold Star, is about, even if the thing never quite finds the footing to fulfill its promise. It’s about a young woman trapped in a life she never thought she’d lead — a part-time fitness club employee who’s lost the nerve to follow her dreams of becoming an internationally renowned concert pianist — her existential struggle for identity, reconciling desire with a rebelliously nihilistic streak, and coping with the unavoidable reality her birth provided. When your father is older than your mother’s parents, dealing with his depleting health and death is inevitable. Facing his mortality will either jumpstart her ambition to stop squandering obvious potential or expose perseverance’s futility in a world driven by tragic uncertainties and fate’s unyielding calculations.

Anyway, let’s sharpen our claws and dig inta this f’er and see how crazy these bitches really are!

Review by Sam Moffitt
When I was a kid I loved the monster mash ups that Universal made during the end of their run of classic monster movies. In fact the very first Universal Monster movie I ever got to see was House Of Dracula, which featured Lon Chaney’s Wolfman, John Carradine’s Dracula, Glenn Strange’s version of Frankenstein’s Monster plus a mad scientist and a hunchbacked nurse.
Many times over the years those classic monsters have been put through their paces in one form or another, in different configurations. Film makers as diverse as Paul Naschy, Jess Franco, Al Adamson and Ed Wood have thrown together two or more of the classic monsters from Hollywood’s golden age, usually to mixed results. The ultimate monster mash up, in my opinion, is Fred Dekker’s Monster Squad, one of my favorite movies of all time.

Why Watch? At the center of this short film from Sal Bardo is a sex scene made uncomfortable to watch not by the presentation of the act, but by the orgy of emotive facial expressions projected by the film’s star Max Rhyser. In Chaser, Rhyser plays Zach, a teacher (with surprisingly empathetically intelligent young students) who is alienated and alienates himself from a conservative family. While his brother and sister-in-law have bought a new house with enough rooms for new humans, Zach views a foundational future as something beyond his reach, and seeks comfort in a barebacking house party that offers easy sex as a temporary fix. “Fix” is a good term for what Zach is chasing — both as a solution and as a high.

Instead, our goal with this narrative short is to start a dialogue and ask one simple question: Why?" - Sal Bardo Production Team: Director: Sal Bardo Producer/Actor: Max Rhyser Editor: Miles Painter Cinematographer: Nickolas Rossi About the Production: "I grew up in the '80s and early '90s,...
