Pieces of Talent (2014)
Pieces of Talent...yes, please!
Pieces of Talent has been a magnificent surprise for me that almost didn't happen! I was attending a horror con on the Gulf Coast for the weekend and the Pieces of Talent poster and trailer kept catching my eye. I did a little research and decided to pick it up on the last day of the con...can I say, "Best. Decision. Ever." The independent horror scene is where I keep finding my favorite movies this year. This one did not disappoint! It is a perfect balance of horror, love, horror, art, horror, gore, and a little bit more horror. Add two great leads (Kristi Ray and David Long...who happens to play himself in this movie, kind of scary!) plus a perfect pace and you've got an excellent movie! This movie will evoke many different emotions from you. I felt tense the entire movie, but at the same time I felt happy during some scenes, sad during others, and disgusted during a few...the gore was great! :-D The direction and look of this movie is absolutely beautiful, also. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone. Can't wait to see what the future holds for these guys! Wonderful movie!
Compound Fracture (2014)
When Tyler Mane is on the good side of "good vs. evil," who do you think is going to win?
Compound Fracture is a real gem of independent entertainment. I really liked this film for a variety of reasons. First, the cast - Tyler Mane (Michael Myers, Halloween I & II), Derek Mears (Jason Voorhees, Friday the 13th), Muse Watson (Ben Watson aka The Fisherman, I Know What You Did Last Summer), and Leslie Easterbrook (Mama Firefly, The Devil's Rejects and Callahan from the Police Academy series) - all knocked it out of the park. I was even pleasantly surprised by the actors/actresses I was not familiar with. Renae Geerlings (who happens to be quite the looker...good job, Tyler!) and Alex Saxon were excellent, as well. Second, the story is great. Not your normal run- of-the-mill horror script that's been done a hundred times. It actually made me want to do some research into the occult themes/rituals and Viking history displayed in the movie...very cool! Lastly, the pace of the film is set just right. I did not feel myself getting bored at all and I felt the right amount of tension that comes with a good slow-burn thriller. Overall, Compound Fracture is a really good movie and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good time. Definitely not a time- waster!
