Growing Shadows: The Poison Ivy Fan Film

A very good Batman fan film with a great low budget cast and crew. This seems to be going to places. Hope the director does some great things with this excellent piece.

A very simple watch for the eyes. Miss De'Ath does a great job screenwriting and acting as the infamous Poison Ivy. If you're expecting Batman to physically appear then you've done to the wrong place.

Beautifully shot, love the use of lighting - you could tell who Ivy's visitor was from the framing of the shadows on his face, a SUPERB touch. A far far better Ivy than Uma Thurman, that's for sure! 4/5 dark and atmospheric, a clever take on the comic narrative. This was absolutely incredible, guys. Literally the perfect representation of the duo's relationship. Of course Ivy knows Batman's identity, she's seduced him so many times! It's such a cool idea, so glad it could be represented here. Amazing performances from the lead duo, I hope to see them reprise their roles in the future! The acting, cinematography and very interesting lighting have all portrayed a very "tender" and interesting dynamic between Ivy and Bruce. It gave a lot more emotional depth, and gave Ivy the sympathetic portrayal that fans have been wanting for ages. You guys totally did her justice!

I'm very happy to see the strong influence from the Poison Ivy: Cast Shadows comic. As a story that demonstrated the complex relationship with Ivy and Bruce, while still keeping their (somewhat) sexual tension, I think you've shown that aspect very well, and it's always nice to see classics adapted well on film.

Also, lastly, thank you for doing Ivy's trademark kiss! I must concede that I've always been a fan of a very sexualized Ivy, although I know there's much more to her character than just oozing sex appeal. Still, just a personal preference. The kiss was done very nicely. Hope that last comment doesn't detract from everything else you've done a great job on!

There you go, Capturing Magic on film once again.

Such an interesting take on Ivy & Bruce's History with each other.

A visual feast of light shadoiw & colour showing how it's just as important as the folks on screen in setting the feel of the film.

Casting was faultless.

Aislinn De'ath within 3 words brings Ivy to life & I was hooked!

Robert Dukes...Robert's Bruce was as spot on as can get & Claire Gleave's Surprise cameo as Dr. Quinzel makes for a Perfect Ending.

Thunderous Applause & Standing Ovations for all involved in this project, From the grips & keys the writer the production crews & designers costuming & make up editors & orchestrations... You all have done it again.

Now if you excuse me I'm off to watch this again... & again.

This is a great little fan film made by a cast that obviously has a love for the source material. I'm a big fan of the cinematography, especially the lighting and framework.

The story is short but sweet, showcasing the dual nature of both hero and 'villain', and the deeper relationship between the pair, Bruce and Ivy.

All in all it's a movie for fans of the DC franchises, that Hollywood desperately needs to look into and maybe give us a proper, full feature Ivy film.
