The Blood We Cry (2005)
just saw this on the internet.... now we're talking!
I watched this guys first film on a boxed set, everlasting evils, it's called the innocent, and is pretty funky stuff! But this short film.... rocks harder! Really great visuals, awesome fight scene, and where the other film let itself down, this film succeeds amazingly! Shot on DV it looks great, no technical issues whatsoever. The story fluid and gripping, acting sharp, cool music too! Where is this guys next feature?! I'm guessing he had a fair budget for this, cos you can see it all up on screen! Really powerful stuff, even got me thinking about the issues for once! He's got to do another horror! Anyone else watching out for this guys work, should check out the innocent film, some shots really show his style develop. This was shown on TV, his first released on DVD, the next has to be the cinema surely? If I had some money I'd invest! :)
The Innocent (2006)
Really Cool, Atmospheric...
I watched this on a DVD box set I picked up at Best Buy, and can't stop thinking about it so am gonna post my thoughts on here. Firstly, it's not the next silence of the lambs, but... it's cool. It's your usual teenagers on spring break stuff, but the setting is unusual (a weird sculpture place and hotel) and the acting is not half bad either. The direction is what makes it stand out. You feel like you're there with these kids. Seems obvious, a bit of shaky camera work, etc, but it transcends that, it's well cut, the footage a bit dodgy, but the angles, choice of framing, etc is really first class. I'm not sure about the ending, but it was better than a cop out gore fest you usually get. The scenes in sepia were the best moments for me, they looked great and had some really excellent suspense building surprises. Overall it's a film that shows it's budget technically, but shows premise and potential from the director and his cast and crew. Not surprising to see them all moving on to bigger things now! I want to see another film directed by this guy, ideally on a bigger budget, maybe with a face or two in it. Even if you don't enjoy the film, you gotta give it credit, it's more watchable (despite the technical issues) than that stupid 'captivity' that's just come out! Someone give that budget to this fella!
