Nefarious (2023)
Clever Depiction on Real Evil
What this film lacks in production value, it oozes rich rewards in creativity and content for those who believe in a universe divided by forces of good and evil. The plot is clever in laying out what every human being should be gravely concerned about each and everyday, and how are life choices will cement our destinies - for not only ourselves, but possibly our offspring as well. Steve Deace did a fabulous job in crafting a tight script and ever engaging dialogue between the protagonist and antagonist, which was very well acted between the two leads of this film. It would've been nice if somehow and somewhere in the film, a glimpse of how a dose of the Holy Spirit could easily defeat this type of evil through a truly spirit filled Christian, and not that hack priest depicted in the film. Perhaps in a sequel? If you're ready for something different and still horrifying on a cerebral level, this is a must see.
Midnight Mass (2021)
Close But No Cigar
This series starts off with lots of promise - good cast, acting, strong production value, decent direction, above average dialogue and overall storyline. But this show suffers silliness and fatigue towards it's finish like many shows do these days. It's a shame really, because this show had all the makings of being one of the great ones.
Homeland (2011)
Series Finale Rocks!
So sad to see eight years come to a close, but what a close it was! I want to thank the entire cast, writers, production, and post production crews for putting together such a fab series.
Filmworker (2017)
An Awesome Story of Undying Loyalty
An extraordinary deep dive into the world of film production with the great Stanley Kubrick. Leon Vitali speaks to the heart of all filmworkers who give so much to participate in the realization of the project at hand. Thank you, Leon, for sacrificing and sharing so much of your life with one of the most important filmmakers of all time in order to share it now with the rest of us. It's a great story that many of us old production warriors can identify with, though most likely not on your scale.
