The Parker Sessions

Creative mind at its finest! A step in bringing awareness to the sad truth of someone's every day reality even to celebrity life. How a blind eye can be so easily turned out of pure ignorance.

Saw this Film at the FilmQuest Festival in Provo , Utah. Not usually a fan of Horror films because of the predictability of the outcomes. I don't want to be a spoiler, but this film had more twists and turns than many of the mainstream movies out of Hollywood. The creativity was haunting, but the outcome towards the end took me for a loop. I left the movie wondering if this type of vigilantism should be somewhat acceptable in this day and age. The message in the credits was powerful. I have to say that the music score throughout the movie was top notch and deserves accolades all by itself. Can't believe that this movie was such a low budget movie. The acting was superb. Can't wait to see more work from the writers and producers from this movie.

This movie had me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole screening. Dark, Emotional, Bloody and Violent in all the right places. Rachell Sean and Danny James both pull strong performances. I wish this film was a little longer. Can't wait to see what the director makes next!

This film is a triumph. It is overall a simple story but every time you think you know what you are watching, there is a twist and that sends you on a different journey until the very end.

I dont normally write movie reviews, but after seeing The Parker Sessions I had to make an exception. I first saw The Parker sessions at Macabre Faire film festival and was immedietly engrossed. The film follows Parker, a young girl dealing with emotional turmoil becuase of her disturbing past. So she seeks out help from a counselor to help stop her night terrors.

Sometimes films involving therapy sessions and mental health can feel cliche and overdone but that was not the case with this film. Rachell seans performance was raw and real. And the cat and mouse scenes between her and Danny James(counselor) were fun and intriguing to watch. Especially as the film goes on and things start to unravel in an unexpexted and wild way.

The writing was smart, and the black and white cinemetography was beautiful and captivating. Overall the film is a great watch with a wild payoff at the end. And for Stephen King Simmons first feature film, im impressed and cant wait to see what he does next!
