Foothills - Review
oothills won’t be for everyone. The experimental nature of the story will be rejected by some, and dismissed by others. However, the audience for this film will hopefully find it and appreciate it for what it is. I am intrigued by Noah Chamberlain’s approach to filmmaking and hope they continue to explore ideas in this way, progressing to bigger and bolder concepts, with more access to what they need to express those ideas.

Hindsight - Review
Hindsight is great. I love the approach to this type of story, where all the elements come together on a simple premise to create something a lot more memorable than just mundane car chats and the burden of responsibility. We have enough humour and heart to elevate these elements into something really special. The setting of the car works extremely well and the world around it is let in just enough to feel uniquely London, without ruling over the story.

Beasts of Death (Bestias de la Muerte) - Review
I was initially pretty wowed by the animation, it’s Tim Burton character design and glowy lighting is pretty, but the film is more than just pretty. I found myself sitting up in my chair with my hands on my face as if I was anticipating a goal in a tense football match. As the tension of the story ramps up, so does the emotion, crashing into you by the end and leaving you both satisfied and begging for more from this animation team.

Spades - Review
While not every aspect of this film worked for me, I overall feel like it was a really intriguing mystery that then resolves itself in an emotionally satisfying and surprisingly action packed conclusion.

Leviticus - Review
I wouldn’t consider Leviticus to be a traditional ... but it definitely has its moments. The film’s scares not only come from the incredible sense of paranoia that it sets you in, but also from the people around our main characters, who are the worst of us, and should be treated as such. The film is a little too short in my opinion, rushing you into the action, but the acting and concept of the film are strong enough to carry you through to a very satisfying conclusion.

Sunny Dancer - Review
A film that is bursting with sincerity, humour and heart, while also being shown in too few cinemas. On opening day of this film last week, I saw this at the only showing, at 7pm. If this film is playing anywhere near you, halt your plans and make this a priority, trust me.
