Goofs
Jackson (Sean McBride) had cut this hair shortly before the re-shoots. The difference in hair length can be barely scene in the original wide-shots and re-shot close-ups for two scenes: the breakfast scene immediately after Jay (Scott Dunn) travels to Maeve's home for the first time and the confrontation between Jay and Jackson after they use astral travel to discover Maeve is the murderer.

Great entry level feature film!

To see the hardwork and effort put into 'Mandao of the Dead' on screen is very inspiring as an aspiring filmmaker. For a $13k budget, the production crew and cast was sizable. Though this piece of film may not be a Hitchcock or Kubrik, for what this movie is in it's infancy is a great start to a future career for most everyone involved in the 'Mandao...' project. A 9/10 is suitable for the film in that it delivered on low expectations and came to impress in many regards. This isn't a film you would take your date to go see, but maybe your girlfriend who's a cinefile and enjoys indie films! The movie speaks for itself in terms of plot and is much more breathable and has more dimension than Scott Dunn's ''Schlep". I can't wait for the next Mandao!
