Betray: Thirst

I enjoyed this flick. I'm familiar with the director's work from a film festival and I've seen quite a bit of his work. I root for anyone willing to step out and produce a movie with minimal resources. This is maybe the best I've seen him produce. He's had a few films with potential where the acting and production value was subpar but this is an exception. All of the actors were believable and although you know beforehand what's likely to happen, I was still intrigued to see how the story would unfold. The highlight of the movie would have to be the actress, Bre Hassan, and her performance. This appears to be her first credit in a film but she was amazing. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her. Overall, a pretty good movie.

Loved this movie! Writer-Director Jaron Lockridge gives us an insightful, touching and sometimes really funny look into the hearts and lives of people just like us in this wonderful installment of the Betray anthology.characters are familiar and new at the same time.

The writing is crisp and edgy. No easy way to put any character in a box. Jaron's script and the actors imbue even his "bad guys" with such humanness you will empathize with them. Especially the character who commits the most heinous act. I especially liked the friendships! Everyone needs one of these BFFs in your life.

See it. Soon!

First of all, the acting for mostly unknown actors in this project was extremely impressive. The emotional parts along with the comedic parts made this a very complex watch. This is an issue that happens a lot and as an avid podcast watcher, you hear it in podcasts quite a bit but I've never seen in brought out in a movie. There is no single character you dislike because the writing made you empathize with every character. Since this is a second film in the series, I gotta go back and watch the first movie because this one left me thoroughly impressed. Kudos to the cast and to the production team for a job well done.

I must say that Jaron Lockridge's movies are like fine wine. They keep getting better and better with time. Everything from the casting, score, editing, videography, sound and a whole lot more is top notch and next level. The story kept me engaged the entire time and I kept wanting more and more. I loved how the actors embraced their roles and showed vulnerability in the scenes where they did. In my humble opinion this movie could be on a major platform like BET. The movie had plenty of drama and suspense and even had a few subtle comical moments. I would highly recommend seeing this movie and it gets 10 stars from me. Great job to all involved and I salute.

I recently saw this film and was thoroughly blown away by the story. I was able to identify and relate to multiple characters and the ending of the movie gives us all something to think about. Great film! The actors & actresses did a tremendous job with believability and selling their emotions. The production quality was 10/10. I often watch indie films and very few of them are able to deliver a quality script, quality acting, & quality camera work/editing. Needless to say, this film did. Jaron Lockridge definitely has a knack for writing and capturing dramatic imagery. Would definitely watch this film again.
