So it's most likely that the majority of you readers will never have heard of this movie or know it exists (I don't blame you because I didn't until recently.) However, being the hardcore fan of indie movies as I am, I took initiative to go and check this movie out at the Broadway Centre Cinemas in Salt Lake City with Christina Loken.
A short plot summation before the gut reaction: Michael C. Hall (from TV's Dexter) plays a Texas father in 1989 who accidentally shoots a home invader one night. While it seems he has become a local hero, things get complicated when the boy's father, played by Sam Shepard, starts harassing him and his family. From there it turns from a home invasion drama to what appears to be a mafia informant movie to something all together more sinister.
So with that, here are our Gut Reactions.
Justin: After overcoming a rough first act, this taut thriller finds its footing through strong acting, a chilling mystery and a bang of a finale. Very low budget, but worth checking out for mystery fans.
Christina: A cowboy drama mixed with a terrifying thriller, it keeps you on the edge of your seat with twists in interesting ways and an overall satisfying end.
Stay tuned for a Gut Reaction to Belle in the next few hours.
