    Storyline

    Edit
    Lars Olafssen, once a young celebrity in the art world is slipping away fast into the land of has-beens. His long-time art dealer, Ronny, is now an ungracefully aging hipster who desperately wants his meal ticket back. But Lars refuses to paint. His creativity comes at too high a cost - his inspiration is carnage - blood, guts and limbs. Not surprisingly, this lead to a dreadful breakdown in the past. Nevertheless, an eager Ronny arranges a teaching job for Lars at an art school in Koda Lake, a small Canadian town in the middle of nowhere. It's a "therapeutic" measure for Lars - a means to conquer his need to paint in the "safety" of a country retreat... That is, until Eddie comes into his life. —dobbinnian / rodriguez

    • Goofs
      During the conversation scene between Ronny and Lars if you look over Ronny's shoulder you see an empty paint easel. At the end of the scene as Ronny leaves, Lars stands and looks back to the easel which now has a blank painting on it.

    Very entertaining !
    Interesting, good actors and very good director. I really like this film ! Watch it, you won't regret it. This film is entertaining. In addition to receiving international awards , he received fine reviews in the media. Well done. Boris Rodriguez the director offers us a feature film quality. Without revealing the content, I especially like the opening scene of the film with the deer. The art of mixing humor and horror is a difficult art in cinema, Boris Rodriguez delights us with Eddie. I did not know these actors and am pleasantly surprised with their performance. You're gonna like easily the character of Eddie (as Dylan Scott Smith). Horror friendly and humorous moments . I think this is a movie to watch !
