I have seen many coming-of-age films over the years, including the great 1971 film The Last Picture Show, which was set in a dead-end Texas town, but Bad Turn Worse took a familiar formula and not only executed it extremely well, but found a way to give it enough humor and relish that it was not predictable or formulaic.
As a filmmaker myself, I very much appreciate the meticulously of the directing, editing, and integration of the music into the story, and the kinds of performances crafted for and by all the actors. I particularly enjoyed the energy and sadism of Mark Pellegrino as Giff, and the scene between Bobby and the Sheriff, who is trying to explain the reality of law enforcement in his town without ever being explicit. Zee and Simon Hawkins' as director and editor respectively are a great team, and I look forward enthusiastically to their future film projects.
