Movie Cookers
Nutshell The Blair Speed Project
Good Things Speed cooker character hasn't been done to death yet, nice blend of horror, character development and humor, indie film claustrophobia actually works for the story, reminds me of last year's St. Francisville Experiment which no one liked but me and which had a lead character who looked just like Stephen Malkmus.
Bad Things At times questionable acting, scary scary scary all over and gross-outy in parts, commercial directors make everything look like a commercial when allowed to run amok, Warning!: this film contains a mullet that will haunt your soul
Features Brad Hunt, Cyia Batten, Patrick McGaw, Ford vehicles, glass pipes
Uncomfortable Moments The entire film - it is frigging scary!
Notable The character Merle's mullet haircut elicited audience gasps. This is the only film I saw at the Los Angeles Film Festival in which the whole audience shut up and watched the movie.
Best Part Hair-pulling scene - perfect blend of humor, horror and pathos
Best Line That is a fucked up story, Merle.
Crowns 4 out of 5
