This was such Shiite, I watched the whole thing, I doubt anyone else has. Another idiot with a camera and 20 bucks. All reviews are "unpaid" involved... includes IMDb. Try to watch it... you won't last, it sucks so bad it's painful. Oh the mess that made this will add tons of codoos to erase mine.... I hope I saved some of you time..........Shame on you... SHAME....BE EMBRRASSED for your involvement in this......

This is a well made movie with great sound. I think I was most impressed with the sound on this being a low budget movie. As for the actual film, I am not so sure it was exactly what I was hoping for. Sometimes the camera is moving around hand-held for no reason, like during a dialog scene in a parked car. For no reason, the camera is shaking here and there. I found it distracting. The acting was pretty good. Some of the acting was really bad. The main issue I had with this movie was the lack of any real character you can connect and identify with. Even the girl we are suppose to care about it a jerk. I was kind of disappointed, but again, I could tell the people involved worked hard. I guess I am just tired of modern Horror films being more concerned with disturbing us than telling us a compelling story that really involves us. It is what I call the "Post-SAW" American Horror Film. This is also why films like Fender Bender are doing so well. It was fun, entertaining and creepy. People are not happy with all the "Serbian Film" nonsense. Since when did it become uncool to enjoy a Horror film without feeling sickened by it? It seems more and more these films make me want to take a shower afterward, not entertain me.

A- Possibly the most likable psychopath in the history of cinema.I don't watch horror movies to see people survive. I like a good killer that I can root for. Usually that means a unique killing style or good one liners. Sometimes a killer can be impressively devious or have so much personality you have to like him. It's very rare in horror to see a performance that makes you genuinely like the character as a person. David Long is a psychopath you could go bowling with. He seems like a fun guy. I mean, yeah, he kills people, but it's okay. That's just David. Kristi Ray is the perfect compliment. She's a little damaged by circumstance, but still a pure sparkling soul that would be irresistible to any goodhearted homicidal maniac.Joe Stauffer is definitely a director to look out for. This movie isn't just good for an indie film. It's a masterpiece. The performances, cinematography, writing, every aspect is top notch. It hits every note that a movie should hit. It's twisted, but also sweetly romantic. It's an art film. It's funny. I mean, if all you want is 'splosions this isn't for you, but if you want to see a well-executed original film that will stick with you, this is it.

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!
