The Wildman of Shaggy Creek

Phenomenal storyline and top notch acting. The story is brought to life by talented actors and great direction - a must watch for the whole family! Wildman offers excitement, laughter, and a great "moral of the story"! The musical score is great as well. It's refreshing to have a movie that everyone can enjoy together, which seems fewer and far between these days! The script was perfectly written and executed in the same way!

I can't say enough about Scott (Hudson) and Hailey (Ayla) - what a great breakout role for them both! They appear as if they are seasoned actors and I can't wait to see them in other films.

I got to see a preview of this movie last week and LOVED it. The acting was incredible, the storyline, based on the book by R. H. Grimley, was suspenseful but very family friendly. There were some jump scares, but nothing too intense. The cinematography was vivid and realistic. Think Goosebumps, but a little less scary . It kept me guessing until the end.

This was all of the child actors first time on the big screen and you could not tell. Ayla Bullington as Hailey, was a standout to me, she is going to be a star!

Jesse Edwards is an upcoming producer that everyone should keep their eyes on.

Can't wait to see what comes next for this talented cast and crew!

We just attended the premiere and were so impressed with this film! It was the perfect amount of suspense but not too scary for my kiddos. I loved the variety of dynamics between characters they were able to portray. They showed so many different relationships and the struggles and joys of each. They showed friendships both new and old, bullying, sibling feuding, parenting doubts and struggles, and internal questioning and self reflection. The movie wasn't overly predictable and very engaging. Our whole family enjoyed the film, both suspenseful and tugs at your heart strings. I highly recommend and will be rewatching frequently!
