Really a surprisingly good film but may not appeal to everyone. Jug Face is a well-written, well- acted horror minor masterpiece that could get cult status. Lauren Ashley Carter does a superb acting role playing Ada, a naive girl in the backwoods. It plays on superstition but turned real in a hidden strict religious cult that worships something inhuman. Acting was unusually good with an unknown cast. It's a morbid, frank film that might turn off people with it's redneck, hillbilly approach, incest, womanhood, repression, superstition and gore. Ada runs out of choices, good or bad, and has to face the consequences. It's highly original and should be well-appreciated for the acting, screenplay and creativity. However, it's bizarre look at a incestuous cult might make a few heads turn.

Jug Face tells the story of a pregnant teen (Lauren Ashley Carter) trying to escape a backwoods community when she discovers that she may be sacrificed to a creature in a pit.The film was produced by Andrew van den Houten, who had previously made the wonderful independent films "Headspace" (2005) and "Offspring" (2009). Camera work was handled by , who previously shot Lucky McKee's "The Woman" (2011). And, of course, one of the lead actors is none other than independent genius Larry Fesenden.Nicholas Rapold of The New York Times wrote, "Some low-budget manifestations of the supernatural jazz up the frights now and again, but as the novelty of worshiping a hole in the ground fades, the film paints itself into a corner." Horror critics were much more favorable, and rightly so. This is beautifully shot, well acted and an overall joy.

Jug Face is excellent representation of the southern Gothic stories that have permeated the American folklore tales of old. There is something creepy about an unexplained phenomena existing patiently and quietly side by side with the colonial development of the American frontier, only to be sated by working in concordance with sacrifice to feed it's dark needs, while providing healing to keep the sources of such feeding sustained. An endless dark cycle, unquestioned for decades until one girl/virgin/un-virgin/woman finally interrupts that feeding, prompting the hunger of the phenomena to lash out in retaliation until the woman, realizing the error of her ways to ever interrupt that age old symbiotic feeding agreement, finally succumbs to her calling, and sacrifices herself to keep the cycle ongoing. Truly terrifying, and reminiscent of classic frontier Gothic literature. Watch this film and experience a piece of American folklore
