Short Film Review: Slapface (2017)

Things ain’t exactly peachy for the young protagonist (Joshua Kaufman) of the short film Slapface; he spends the late afternoons wandering the cold, dead forest that surrounds his home pining for his dead mother. Nights are spent refusing medication and playing an abusive face slapping game with his distant father (Nick Gregory)…so that’s double depressin’. What makes life tolerable for our hero is the relationship he develops with the monster (Lukas Hassel) that dwells in those aforementioned wicked woods…but just what is the nature of his beastly bestie? Comprised of an extremely somber aesthetic, emphasized not only by the pitch-black elements, but also by the gorgeous muted color palette (featuring cool greys, stark browns, and plenty of twilight skies), Writer/Director Jeremiah Kipp has presented something truly memorable for horror hounds to enjoy; particularly those that enjoy a strong human element running through their creature feature. Speaking of that, the creature presented here is also understated, and features a nice, subtle

Movie Review: Black Wake Deftly Combines Found Footage and Lovecraft Style Mythology!

Black Wake details the investigation of comely scientist Dr. Luiza Moreira (Nana Gouvea) who begins reviewing every scrap of video evidence concerning a rash of deaths occurring on various beaches near the Atlantic Ocean. As she presses on, Moreira finds shocking evidence that a monstrous prehistoric parasite may be responsible for the murderous mayhem. Complicating matters are a shadow organization that is following Moreira’s every move, a strange cult tied to the parasite (lead by a homeless man that may be Patient Zero of the outbreak), and the lil’ matter of the murder victims returning to life as violence crazed zombie-like beings! Can Dr. Moreira solve the case, survive the forces conspiring against her, maintain her sanity, and save the world? The greatest (though by no means “only”) thing Black Wake has going for it is a truly excellent sense of mythology and world building courtesy of screen writers Jerry Janda, Carlos Keyes, and Jeremiah Kipp (who also directed).

Jeremiah Kipp will be directing the independent sci-fi thriller ‘Blake Lake’, which was written by Jerry Janda. Well known Brazilian actress Nana Gouvea will be making her English language debut in ‘Black Lake’ and will star along side Eric Roberts, Tom Sizemore, Rich Graff, Jeremy Beauchamp, Jeremy Fernandez, Kaylin Iannon and Kelly Rae LeGault. In the film Specialists meet in a top-secret facility to investigate a series of mysterious deaths that are occurring on the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean.

Now she must convince her colleagues of the real danger before an ancient being rises from the sea to bring death to the world. ‘Black Wave’ began filming in July. The filmmakers have put together an early teaser, which is to be followed by a full trailer in September.
