Look Into The Fire is a well-constructed, taut, lean, and focused psychological drama. As a filmmaker, writer/director Tim Morrill has clearly been influenced by Alfred Hitchock, David Lynch, and Philip K. Dick. While he treads into similar territory as his influences, he never apes them. The cast of mostly unknowns turn in solid performances with Jackie Dallas as Sam, Artie Shase as Adam, and Nina E. Jordan as Janet being standouts. Well-known character actor Gregg Henry gives an enjoyable performance as Professor Hirsch. The music by Mariano Salino and cinematography by Matt Emanuel were both suitably moody without being flashy or calling too much attention to themselves. Joe Jefferson's editing helped drive the story and create a tense pace.
