His best work...brilliant!

A compelling film smoldering with anticipation. It has the "Wow" factor. A true work of art. The director is professional, skilled and polished. The actors are riveting and will keep you glued to your seat. The performances are innovative and creative. This is truly an imaginative masterpiece! Irresistible! You will watch it over and over again!!! This chilly and intense film will leave you wanting more. I believe this film would be a fantastic start to a mini series. Stunning work. The creative ingenuity will leave you breathless. I can't wait to see what is next for this very talented actor/director. He is at the "top" of his game.

Trivia
The film was originally supposed to take place entirely within the bar. Due to a misunderstanding between the bar manager and the owner, the production was forced to vacate the location after having shot more than half of the film. Luckily, they were able to secure the warehouse location and rework the script to suit the new location.
