The Girl with the Fork

The film really nails the suspense, with a plot that slowly unravels each character's secrets. But it can drag a bit and gets a little too convoluted in spots. Even so, it's a solid pick for anyone into indie feeling suspenseful dramas. The soundtrack is a highlight that totally amp up the tension and match the film's quirky feel.

There's a couple really lynchesque on steroids tracks in there. The cast does a great job, bringing the characters to life as the plot takes its twists and turns. Pacing can be challenging, especially the camera work that often chooses to stay put and linger for ages on a framing, but overall, I think it's a really solid effort.

An intriguing, convoluted, deep, emotional and mysterious story. Really nice individual and sensitive performances particularly from Rebecca Calienda, Dylan Baldwin and Paul Dewdney, delightful lighting and cinematography by Matthew Hicks, and superb script writing and direction from Ignasio Maiso. If you don't want your thriller/drama stories spoon-fed then this is definitely one for you, it'll have you thinking for days afterwards! All in all, an excellent film, very stylish and thought provoking; I first watched it on the film festival circuit, I'm delighted that I discovered this low-budget movie gem.

A surprising very good movie! I watched this expecting the usual cliches but there were a few surprising twists. It's a compelling, mysterious and a journey into the unknown. It will leave the viewers thinking hard.

Ignacio and Alex have created a world that will leave the viewer astonished and wandering. I've had to watch it again and again and it still leaves me wandering.

A feast for all the senses. Would highly recommended this stylised indie film.

A glimpse into a world that will leave your heart racing and your mind ticking.

A very good movie all round. I would definitely recommend this film.

Ignacio Maiso stylish psychological thriller where David Lynch meets Luis Buñuel.

Maiso through his filmic language, uses the screen as a canvas to paint tense situations and tell an intriguing story.

An excellent cast, the actors convey much with minimal dialogue, they live and move in a stage like dimension, sculptured by contrasting colors and alternating light and shadow, they navigate the depth and breath of the story with elegance and skill.

The music score effectively underlines emotions, sets the tone and supports the actor's performance.

An interesting and yet enjoyable film to watch.

I gave this about 15 to 20 minutes, in which there is very little dialogue and what dialogue there is, is so dragged out it became ridiculous. It took at times a full minute for a character to get out one word and then another. I had no idea what was going on, and didn't care as there is no character development. Actors would just stand in a room looking around. A man takes off his shirt , that took a few minutes but felt like half an hour. I guess this was trying to be something arty but it's just nonsense. I wasn't even curious to see where it was going because I had to force myself just to suffer through the first 15 minutes. Don't bother. The ratings on this have nosedived as the real reviews are posted.
