Sherlock Holmes: Mare of the Night

What a great movie, it makes you wanting more. Great acting, videography and score music. They really captured that era in time. Well put together, loved everything about it. We will watch again and again. Can't wait for more to come. Director CJ Goodwyn out did himself, this movie deserves more showings everywhere for more people to watch. I highly recommend this movie, it does not disappoint. Thank you for putting a great film out for everyone to enjoy. I look forward in what's to come in the future with this film. Again thank you to all the cast and crew for putting in their hard work into this film. This a must watch!

Maybe you're one of the many mainstream American movie goers and thus might be skittish or apprehensive about seeing independent films.

Or, maybe you only see Hollywood blockbusters until a friend drags you to see an Indie film.

I myself am usually skeptical about Indie films as they often lack in proper sound, colorization, and editing. However this film, by the remarkably talented writer-director CJ Goodwyn, displayed quality sound, excellent colorization & tone (perfectly set for this dark and different psycho thriller) and first rate editing (think of the late Sally Menke of Tarantino's films).

Thank goodness! Or should I say thank Goodwyn?

From the intense and moving monologues of the Sherlock Holmes character (actor Les Best), to the perfectly timed musical score, I have to admit I was captivated... and I mean edge of the seat captivated throughout most of 'Mare of the Night'.

Dang! I am truly impressed by what comes out of the south Texas film industry.

EASY FOR ME TO RECOMMEND THIS FILM!

I personally enjoyed the "darker" take on Sherlock Holmes. Originally envisioned a horror type setting from Sherlock after reading The Hound of Baskerville when I was younger. In addition to that, I also thought seeing vulnerability and insight into some of Holmes' personal struggles added a nice human element to the overall film. Les Best's performance was captivating as Sherlock along with Taylor King's. Thought the villain character was creative too. It's impressive that this is an indie film. I do know the director won San Antonio director of the year in 2024 and look forward to seeing more of his work in the future. Overall enjoyable film experience👍

Lost in the trenches of Sherlock Holmes' nightmares and deep-rooted sense of loss and guilt is a story of a man who has saved hundreds of lives while the deaths of others he couldn't save plague his soul. With incredible music scores, dark and terrifying film finesse, and powerful performances that will draw you deep into the mind of Sherlock Holmes, you'll stay on the edge of your seat from the first minute! The cinematography in this film far exceeded my hopes, and the music scores summoned me deep into the murky mires of hellacious stories of love, loss, and sinister retribution. Don't blink.

Definitely, and eye opening experience into the Psychological world of Sherlock Holmes. Enjoyed every suspenseful scene. Mr. Best was at his finest. Bravo work to cast and crew that made this film. Can't wait for Chapter 2. Seriously!! This movie was so beautifully done. I TRULY feel this is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece-a breathtaking exploration of time, memory, and the human experience. This film ingeniously intertwines various timeframes, weaving together lives and emotions in a way that feels profoundly nostalgic and universally relatable. It's a deeply sentimental journey that mirrors our own experiences, drawing parallels to the joys, struggles, and fleeting moments that define us all. Bravo work C. J. You done it again...
