Call Girl

Wow. Although Jill Sixx's debut short clocks in at only 6 minutes (heh heh) it's one of the best little flick's I've ever had the privilege of seeing. The performances of it's leading lad and lady are stellar and the skewed, bizarre viewing angle adds so much tension to the whole piece.

This is an amazing short that demands viewing if it's showing in your area. The music, editing, effects and performances make it stand out from a legion of other shorts invading festivals everywhere.

Jill has just announced a second project "The Stylist", which has me exceptionally excited considering the quality of Call Girl. It was actually this movie that enticed me to approach Tristan Risk for my third short film. She is just wonderful bringing a mix of vulnerability and power to the role in equal measure.

Laurence is stunning and I won't go into his performance too much, as I don't want to risk posting any spoilers for this amazing piece.

Seriously, this film has inspired me as a film-maker and I can only imagine the heights someone of Jill Sixx will reach in her career, considering this is her debut piece.

I wasn't familiar with the creator or the "Alter" shorts so went in with zero expectations, that's always a good thing but this short certainly isn't.

It tells the tale of a man who brings an escort into his home all the while recording the encounter on his laptop. Things don't go quite to plan however.

Starring Laurence R. "Human Centipede 2 & 3" Harvey it's a blink and you'll miss it experience that honestly has been done before. I've seen this very same "Plot" done prior and considerably better.

I'm not saying it's bad, it's well enough made but we've seen this before and there really is no excuse for this degree of recycling. To make matters worse the video buffers repeatedly to represent a stream, but honestly we already knew that and therefore it was needlessly annoying.

The Good:

Laurence R. Harvey

The Bad:

The annoying buffering

Hardly original

This is one of the scariest movies I have seen. It has a great story line it also has great acting. It is a very scary movie. This is scarier then The Shinning. See it. It is one of the scariest movies ever.
