22 July 2019
6 shorts equals a great fun filled creep fest. Indie horror at its finest. Something for everyone with the 6 different stories. Each one surprising and weird. Very entertaining, all indie horror fans should check into this hotel.

A little slap stick, a little Woody Allen
14 February 2019
I think the thing that brings this silly rom com to life is the performances. The actors do a great job of committing to the comedy without trying to be funny. The characters and story is where the silliness lives. A little slap stick, a little Woody Allen. Embrace the characters and enjoy the ride. Popcorn helps.

Heartfelt performances by a talented cast
14 February 2019
Heartfelt performances by a talented cast in the gripping family story. This film tugs at the heart from beginning to end. All the characters are relatable and you feel for all of them. Excellent indie drama, brake out the tissues for this two thumbs up film...

A palpable tension the builds throughout the film
3 February 2019
This indie film delivers a a slow burn thriller. There is a palpable tension the builds throughout the film as the story unfolds. It is complemented by a solid cast. The lead gives a stoic performance with a intensity that keep you on the edge of your seat. The score is notable as it intensifies the story. Excellent work by the director and the director of photography. This is a exceptional indie film. I think if they had million in the budget we'd call it a block buster. Two thumbs up.

Summer of '67 (2018)
9/10
I was touched by the performances
1 February 2019
This film seemed a little more true and real then most Hollywood films taking place in the same time period. Maybe because its and indie and nothing was masked by big budgets and big names. I was touched by the performances that drew me into the story. The pace of the film gives the viewer time to digest the importance of the time and story being told. Two thumbs up.

Purdah (2018)
10/10
Wow, great heartfelt doc
24 January 2019
Wow, great heartfelt doc. This is not about trying to change any cultures or traditions. It just a sports doc and the lengths people will go to follow their dreams and passions. Very inspirational in a world full of obstacles. I haven't seen this world before in film or print. Purdah is a breath of fresh air showing another side of a culture that we rarely are exposed too. Two thumbs up.

If you're a fan of slapstick this indie film will please
24 January 2019
This broad slapstick comedy plays like a great SNL sketch. If you're a fan of slapstick this indie film will please. I could see Jim Carey or Andy Kaufman in this film. If that was the case it would be a blockbuster instead of a little indie. Camera work is nicely done in some picturesque locations. The story is clever and silly and keeps you interested from the start to the closing credits. Two thumbs up.

Scareycrows (2017)
10/10
This is a fun filled comedy horror fest
24 January 2019
If you liked Hot Fuzz, that film with Simon Peg, Scareycrows is right up your alley. This is a fun filled comedy horror fest. It is 100% pure entertainment. Can't be sure who had more fun, me watching or the cast and crew making the movie. Speaking of the cast, all strong performances. The director does an excellent job of keeping the camp and slapstick out and a funny realism in. Two thumbs up.

Bad, Bad Men (2016)
10/10
the director has a real knack for subtle comedic moments
23 January 2019
Classic high school nerd fights back against the bully story. Only difference is the nerd is all grown up and so is the bully. Very funny, great characters lots of bits that make you laugh out loud. The cast is solid, the director has a real knack for subtle comedic moments. Sound track works very well with the tone and humor of the film. Two enthusiastic thumbs up. This is a film for anyone looking to laugh.

Two thumbs up for this great musical ride.
18 January 2019
A great satire has a lot of true and Stadium Anthems delivers. Great music but the actors/characters are the highlight of this indie gem. A fun story that follows people from the musician side as well as the industry side. Both sides with different perspective but want the same results and believe in different ways to get their. Fun, silly, and absurd at times. Two thumbs up for this great musical ride.

All elements of filmmaking come together here to create a very moving film.
18 January 2019
When dealing with children and the loss of children it's always an emotional ride. All elements of filmmaking come together here to create a very moving film. The dark moody cinematography enhances the honest heartfelt performances of the entire cast. The extreme close-ups the director uses brings you into the characters emotions and the score brings all these elements together. This is a rare gem of a drama from a great team of indie filmmakers. Two thumbs up.
