Follow Her (2022)
Super Creepy
I finally got a chance to see this movie since I'm a huge thriller fan. Everything in this film really delivered.
Wow. This movie glued me to my seat. Very, very disturbing thriller. I love thrillers and the film held my intention all the way to the end. Love the cast and the story. Very well made indie film (and feels like a blockbuster in my opinion). I want to see more films from this.
Thank you so much for sharing the experience with all of this. I want to recommend this movie to my friends. A perfect movie especially with the digital age with social media obsession. The message is like: if you carry it too far, it will lead to consequences.
A+!!!!
The Making of 'Purgatory House' (2005)
Fun and inspirational
I've seen a lot of behind the scenes documentaries on the movie-making process. But how often you get to see a movie that was actually written by a fourteen year old girl? It shows the power of dreams and if you work hard toward those dreams that almost anything is possible. The documentary also shows the power of making a difference. I really am happy for their success and their hard work has paid off. Fear is a gift and it's exciting to see artists showing that side of them when often in behind the scenes they cover it up. We need more filmmakers like Cindy Baer providing us inspirational gifts. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her work. Thank you!
Dorme (2006)
Seven minute movie feels like a feature length experience!
"Dorme" is one of those rare movies that feed your heart and warm your soul. The cinematography is breathtaking and extremely surreal. The soundtrack is beautiful and it would pull you in this journey. The story reminds me many of my favorite beloved children stories like "The Little Prince" and "Alice in Wonderland." I was invited to see this movie on the big screen at the San Francisco International Film Festival. This movie played many, many film festivals and even won some awards. For a seven minute movie, it felt like a feature length experience! The movie still haunts me to this day and I am looking forward to seeing more of Sylvia Binsfeld work. More good reasons why her work inspire me and want to be an artist in the first place. Thank you! - Sage Drake, writer/director "My Gift"
Losing Lois Lane (2004)
Man of Steel
"Loising Lois Lane" is one the smartest, funniest short movies I have seen in a long time. I was feeling pretty depress and when I watched it, I couldn't believe how clever the story was. Believable actors and a strong script. The direction was great and always fun to watch. It's sort of like watching a Woody Allen movie with a cape. Just a fun short to watch on a raining day or anytime for that matter.
I found out some time later that Blayne Weaver has made his feature debut and it's been touring around the festivals. I couldn't be more happier for him and his crew and cast mates. We need more laughs than ever before and as a writer and director, that's "super" important to me. It's good to have humor in movies. But the one that touched me the most was how much humanity he puts in his stories. That's a rare trait in artists these days.
