Natural Possession: Director's Cut

When I first heard about this film, I was very interested in checking it out. As a fan of horror I had to see it after reading the description. And I was not disappointed.

The story is solid, moves at a pace that keeps the viewer interested without moving too quickly. The viewer has time to absorb what's happening without lingering and without being spoon fed the story.

The acting delivers on nearly all sides, with a great performance by Alan Sutherland as The Monster. On my podcast (A Little Dead Podcast) I remarked that Sutherland's manner of moving through scenes told us without beating us over the head that he was something unnatural, something orthoganal to our world. Ben Andrews as John gives a great performance as an artist who is falling apart and losing touch with those around him.

It's on that last note that the screen writer, Antony De Gennaro, really delivers a powerful, thought provoking story that works on several levels. On the surface we've got a story of a man falling apart. His girlfriend is moving away and possibly cheating on him. His dreams of art are failing and he's resorting to doing porn to survive. And there's a homeless killer who he believes lives in his apartment building, but nobody will believe him.

But when you dig down, there's another level of story present that explains Ben's troubles. And it's there that the true horror in his life really lurks, just behind the scenes in the dark of his psyche.

It's truly an excellent film.

SON OF TERROR is a very deliberate, carefully constructed, intense thriller hearkening back to the days of Argento and Ken Russell. The images are often quite striking and the oppressive score really works well in amplifying the tension. Son Of Terror shows a very unique talent. -- Travis Stevens (Director of Acquisitions & Marketing) at Imagination Worldwide, LLC

The director did an amazing job of making Seattle look terrible. I want to see more from the filmmaker. Talent is evident in the production. The film had some nice performances, good directing, and solid cinematography. -- Eric Morgret, Co-owner, Maelstrom Productions

This movie scared me !

Another Washington state made horror flick that goes and goes.

I have to confess, I like the creepy guy versus his attempt at normalcy.

Lots of attempts at sliceing & diceing innovation.

Okay,Can someone explain the Funeral Couple and the Sheriff, Can you say over the top and seemingly out of place to the rest of goings on ?

It's amazing how many films have come out of Washington state the last couple years,Do something right in this critics eyes.

Great makeup and execution ( Pardon the pun) of deaths are really diverse and have a great setup.
