Had the pleasure of meeting many talented directors and filmmakers outat the Victoria film fest 2004 (best fest ever), and I have to say tothe world, this 23-year-old-kid is the Real Deal. I've been in film for many years and I was just blown away by hisfeature debut from a creative, technical and poetic point of view.American Beauty meets After Hours with loads of unexpected thrills(let's just say I'll never play roulette again) and grace (especiallybetween the 2 leads). Go out and find this movie and watch it. If you'rea studio head out there - give this guy a deal. Good stuff Gavin. Warren P. Sonoda, director, Ham & Cheese.

Loved this film. Quite unlike anything I've ever seen before.Absolutely worth checking out. A film about Religion made with such subtlety that I imagine most wouldn't even realize the true theme of the film..

Dope fiends and the strange prowl the night, yet the normals often drop in for a visit. So is Expiration, a work of understated devililishness, probing into the depths of the putrid city streets after dark.Heffernan is a madman, one of which we need more of and yet one who must stand alone and be unique. He'll slaughter pigs by hand if it would make a better film, and that takes dedication and love and a fair amount of industrial strength glue in my business.Not to be missed, Expiration undoubtedly appreciates upon viewing, and I fully expect it's vintage to be prime in two to three years after maturing in French and American oak.

This movie was made with lots of hart and spirit and little money. It's an honest movie fun to watch. I know I have enjoyed it. I think Gavin Heffernan is in the right field and is going to be around for a long time as he will get more experienced we can expect great things coming up.
