The Evil Down the Street (2019)

Dynamic Cinematography!

[8/10 · 19 June 2019]

Enjoyed the slow-burn pacing of the writing as well as the dynamic cinematography. The framing was creative and interesting. That the story was based on real events is creepy and every new home owners nightmare.

Bad, Bad Men (2016)

Witty, Fun, Unpretentious

[10/10 · 2 February 2019]

Was not prepared to love this unpretentious, endearing (in a totally macho, cool-dude way) film. The chemistry of the characters/actors, with the fun/fresh plot kept me hooked (and laughing) to the final frame. Indie writing/filmmaking at its best right here.

Repatriation (2017)

Fresh Perspective

[9/10 · 6 January 2018]

A fresh look at the old story of the soldier coming home--a look that feels honest for the generation in which we live.

GoatSucker (2009)

Campy as Hell!

[10/10 · 5 January 2018]

The acting, the "special effects," some of the plot--campy and fun! What makes the film great, though, is the way Steve Hudgins' stock characters gained dimension (if not smarts) as the campy plot unfolded. Also love the way he dropped in characters along the way. Perfect amount of backstory to add to the mystery of THE GOATSUCKER!

Me Familia (2017)

Great Details, Interesting Characters

[10/10 · 5 January 2018]

I haven't watched many mob movies--so this was a fascinating movie to watch. Love all the details that went into it.
