Deer Crossing Trailers

The film centers around retired police detective Derrick Stanswood (Mann), who is called by a successful doctor about an unsolved case involving his wife Maggy (Cottrel) and their son, Cole (newcomer Kevin Fennell). Chasing after loose ends in a backward rural town, Derrick has no idea that Maggy has been held captive for the past eight years by farmer Lukas Walton (K.J. Linhein, "Jebediah"), who is raising Cole as his own son in a wrongful world that holds its own horrors (http://mrpotent.com/deerCrossing/).

This movie tries very hard to be something it is not....Good. I read every review before watching it and I watch encouraged to the thought like one stated this movie doesn't take it 's audience as fools. From my view point I just finish watching a movie that pulled out every single stereotype and put them all together into 1 movie. It 's just too much but yet i'm no fool just Stupid for believing the reviews. Any how I stated that this movie could be summed up in 5 words and those words are "What the hell was that" If I had to write the plot keywords for this movie i guess they would be : Abduction, Rape, crime,drugs, racism, hillbilly, ex-cop, porn, gay porn, serial killer, drug abuse, cults, etc etc.. The list goes one. Yet I still have but 5 words for this, What the hell was that

Local Filmmaker Hits The Target With DEER CROSSINGPhiladelphia has long been known as a city that turns out great local talent in the entertainment industry especially in film. This tradition continues to grow these days thanks in part to an up and coming filmmaker Christian Grillo.Christian Grillo is the mastermind behind this year's breakout Indie film 'Deer Crossing'. He is a man who wore many hats while putting this piece of cinematic enjoyment together for all of us. In addition to writing, directing and editing, Christian is also the musical creator behind the soundtrack.The cinematography is nicely done to perfection by another rising local talent Scott E. Kaufman. The images that the cinematographer places in front of our eyes remain long after the film has taken its final bow. It is a refreshing piece of filming that never becomes boring to the eyes while enticing our curiosity for the next frame.Deer Crossing has everything you would want as a movie lover and then some. It will take you mind and your senses on a roller-coaster ride that only Mr. Grillo himself could construct. Although the film doesn't come with a big Hollywood budget or cast it does however come with a Hollywood delivery and feel. The acting in the movie keeps the pace going at breakneck speed as the lines are read with realism. There are many twists and turns but you are never left on the side of the road scratching your head searching for answers. In the end this film delivers big and leaves you wanting to see more from Christian Grillo and the talent he has surrounded himself with on this film. It proves once again Philadelphia is the breaking ground for entertainment and even though the address isn't Hollywood it can still feel like it.John J. Ruppert10-2-2012

Don't be fooled by the fake 10/10 reviews, this is absolutely awful.Low budget doesn't mean guaranteed poor movie. It certainly increases the possibility and this film shows it.Awful acting.Terrible "script".Unimaginative characters, typical hillbilly stereotyping.There may be hidden low budget gems out there, this isn't one of them, its complete rubbish. Cant think of one redeeming quality. I rarely switch a movie off, and in this case didn't, but came very close.Avoid.

Deer Crossing had to be the best Horror film I have seen in a while. I will watch this movie over and over. The acting was very good also. Great cast. The plot was amazing as ever since I seen the trailer for Deer Crossing, every time i see a deer on the side of the road I get scared. This movie is way better than any of these other so called Horror movies today. I am not a big horror buff but I can say that Deer Crossing has changed my mind about the whole Genre of Horror and Suspense. I love the way this movie starts out with the great line "EAT THE F'ING POTATOES." I will recommend this and other Grillo movies to everyone I know. This is a movie for the ages. And Jonathan Patrick Hughes as Chris played a great Role.
