Wineville

We got to talk to brande about the film and now's it's on Tubi . It's a great film and you can tell it was a passion film. It's both haunting and beautiful landscape and dark subject matter makes it a great watch. Lots of gore and fun within the film. The acting is fun and the fact that son and mother are in real life son and mother make the relationship even better. If you're into a fun movie with blood, guts, and some nudity. Wineville is one that you need to watch. Not only is Brande an amazing person and super nice to her fans. She's got the chops to run with the big dogs of horror.

Wineville (2024), directed by Brande Roderick in her feature directorial debut, is a 1970s-set horror-thriller that blends familial trauma with supernatural suspense. The film follows Tess Lott (played by Roderick), who returns to her family's vineyard after her father's death, only to uncover dark secrets that have festered over the decades .I thought I was a good movie and really scary. I've always wondered about those murders back in the day and this movie does a great job at showing you the timeline and breaking down everything. I think it offers a compelling watch it may not be a conventional horror film kinda lacks traditional horror scares Brande Roderick did a fantastic job at directing this one she really did a good job at capturing the supernatural suspense looking forward to Branden's future projects.

Most horror films take a while to get going but this film hits the gore immediately. A true story of the Wineville chicken coop murders, sees Tess Lott (Brande Roderick) revisit her family home as she has inherited it due to her relative passing.

Its been years since she visited because of a tormented past thanks to her weird incestuous family, she reluctantly revisits with her boy to finalise paperwork.

She's greeted by a familiar face who she'd rather not associate with but has no option but to.

During her stay those visiting or passing disappear in gory fashion and are searched for by the local sherrif who takes a shine to the her.

Needless to say when people start going missing its her and her boys turn to run for their lives... do they make it out alive?

Excellent performances from all the cast that make this flick very watchable.

Turn off the lights, close the curtains and grab some scary movie popcorn and enjoy!

First of all this is certainly not the genre of film that catches my attention. Was never much for horror films. Never on my hit parade. I figured let me give it a shot since I have always been a fan of Brande Roderick. Never knew she was into producing and directing. Well I was pleasantly surprised. Brande and Richard put together a fun watch. The movie went at a nice pace and the characters were well chosen. I guess the Wineville Chicken Coop murders were a true story. I am looking forward to seeing more from the two of them. Don't see a Wineville 2 but I am sure Brande will come up with something else.

I knew going in that this was one of those films that I couldn't compare to a mainstream film. I read all the critic reviews, saw all the disdain for it. To my surprise, it was watchable, and to be fair I've seen weaker plots come out of big budget Hollywood movies. It reminded me a bit of 1998's U-turn, and I'm sure fans of lurid, under-the-radar cinema will find something to enjoy here at least.

And of course there is Joe, who you know from the beginning is a nutcase but you can't help but find him appealing. The actor is definitely a looker. Honestly I don't know whether or not his gay scene was bait or not, and I don't really care (it was kinda hot - until it wasn't).

All in all a very rough, small budget endeavor that plays it a bit safe for the crowd it was aiming for and it shows its weaknesses throughout, though I can't help but feel that with some proper mentoring, a good writing staff, more risks, tighter pacing and better editing, this might have been a solid cult film. As it is though, it's inevitably going to be lost in the wide sea of better produced genre efforts. I admire the attempt though and hopefully it was a valuable learning experience for ?first time?director ms Roderick. I've seen a lot of first worse first attempts, if indeed it was.
