Out of the Black

I really enjoyed last night's San Diego screening of "Out of the Black." Karl is a truly fantastic storyteller, and the writing, directing, acting and production value were all really great! I really think this film has a strong shot at some sort of meaningful distribution deal. Not many movies nowadays focus on story and characters (they rely on effects and star power), and I felt very drawn into the story...I truly lost myself in the film! Great "unraveling of the layers of the onion"!

This was a powerful, riveting drama set in the mines of Pennsylvania that invites comparison to "East of Eden" as a powerful coming of age film. Excellent performances and gorgeous location cinematography combine to make this an exceptional viewing experience.

Excellent storyline. The way everything unfolds at the end was awesome. The movie and the music went well together and I can't wait for the next Karl Kozak film. The soundtrack that accompanies the movie turned out just as good. Great job in every area!

Obviously, I watched a different movie than Mr. Parker. I thought the movie was very well done for a small independent film. The story was a little choppy in the beginning but picked up and was very entertaining. The soundtrack was wonderful. The acting was top-notch with Tyler Christopher as the lead, along with the other cast members. It's a definite movie well worth watching.

This is an enthralling movie. Tyler Christopher who played on general hospital did a excellent job. There are some very good looking women actor`s. It kept me on the edge of my chair as the mystery unfolds. Good story line about the "accidental" death of the two brothers ten years earlier and the brothers effort to learn more of the truth. Very well cast and acted with a great story line. If Karl Kozak`s next film is anywhere close to this quality it will be a must see film.
