Torn

The film was a sheer delight! Packed with entertainment and humor, it managed to strike a chord on a profound level due to its compelling moral and message. The storyline was not just engaging but also thought-provoking, leaving a deep impact that stayed with me. The cast's chemistry was palpable, making the characters relatable and endearing. The witty dialogues between the actors resonated with real-life experiences, making the characters feel like old friends. The film's technical aspects, from cinematography to special effects, were astonishingly realistic, immersing me completely into its world. The music and sound effects added depth, enhancing the overall cinematic experience. It was more than just a movie; it was a transformative journey that left me entertained, enlightened, and profoundly moved.

If you're looking for a mind-bending psychological film and a movie that will keep you at the edge of your seat, this is the film to add to your watchlist. From the beginning to the end you are questioning if the narrator is experiencing reality or a "delusion". It was an experience to go and explore the psyche of the protagonist and the demons he was facing.

The production of the movie stood out as every scene was shot with a purpose in mind, a purpose that would put all the pieces together as the move hits it climax. Look forward for more work from this production company. 10/10 will watch again.

I felt inclined to leave a review because I'm not typically into psychological thrillers but this one was great! There was a perfect amount of suspense and twists and turns that I did not expect. I found myself wondering what was real vs what the lead character was imagining! The make up was great and very realistic. I was really by the acting overall! I found some of the characters to be genuinely funny, and it helped to lighten the overall mood of the movie. Very well done - would certainly recommend to those who love psychological thrillers, and even those who don't! You will likely be surprised!

"Torn" masterfully blends the haunting elements of psychological thriller with the supernatural, resulting in a gripping cinematic experience that leaves you questioning the boundaries between reality and folklore. Directed by Ryen Thomas, this film is a tour de force in storytelling, aided by a stellar cast that brings depth and authenticity to their roles.

Jordon Alexander delivers a powerhouse performance as Peter Stube, a man grappling with the demons of alcoholism. His portrayal is raw and unflinching, capturing the torment and desperation of a soul teetering on the precipice of self-destruction. As the narrative unfolds, we witness Stube's journey to Bilford, a town steeped in werewolf legend, searching for solace and redemption.

Alfonso Freeman, in a supporting role, adds a gravitas to the narrative with his portrayal of Sheriff Mike Lewis, a figure who becomes pivotal in Stube's quest for self-discovery. Freeman's commanding presence on screen is a testament to his seasoned acting prowess, enhancing the film's intricate layers.

However, it's Danny Vinson's portrayal of Ned Bowers that steals the show. Vinson brings a haunting vulnerability to the character, making Bowers a standout figure in the town's tapestry of outcasts. Bowers is a man battling his own monster, and Vinson's performance is nothing short of extraordinary.

The screenplay, penned with meticulous care, weaves a narrative that seamlessly blends the psychological turmoil of its characters with the supernatural elements of Bilford's werewolf lore. The pacing is taut, maintaining proper suspense to keep the audience engaged.

In conclusion, "Torn" is a testament to the talent of its cast and crew and a must-see for aficionados of psychological thrillers and supernatural dramas alike. Bravo.

I expected a supernatural thriller but found this to be a very serious and gripping treatment of a major social problem that films rarely attack head on. The protagonist turns out to be a very complex figure who is fighting a losing battle against his own demons. Some may take supernatural elements seriously; I took them as a metaphor. The ensemble cast was outstanding, full of classic southern figures, well-acted. And while the cast is diverse, race plays no part in the plot whatever. This is a serious film and no one will feel they wasted their time watching it, trust me. Highly recommended.
