    Vertices should be included in the Oscar's!

    This entire series leaves you guessing with a racing heart and sweaty palms, not to mention a breaking heart.

    The actors talents are outstanding, every single emotion displayed could be felt right to your core.

    The film score intensifies the feelings portrayed by the actors giving the viewer the perfect experience.

    Eric Guilmette as Alex Crow, as always is a stand out in this, with unmatched acting abilities in the vertical space. This man is going to go far in Hollywood!

    Mariana Tostado as Camilla Vialante was phenomenal, perfectly depicting the emotions of a woman who no longer wants to be a victim but is at her limit

    Tyler Mauro as Hector Cruz once again putting his crazy bad guy chops on full display for us all and with just a look making you feel uneasy.

    As the title says, this series is worthy of an Oscar. Congratulations to the entire cast, to Vigloo for getting to stream it and to Purple Light Pictures. I cannot wait to see what is next from this team!

    The secret she couldn't escape

    There is so much to say about this project. A lot of love and hard work went into this from the production team to the actors/actresses. From beginning to end, it had me hooked! There was so much suspense and intense scenes with the actors and actresses involved, I loved it. It was so different from the other verticals and is definitely one of the best ones to have been written and filmed! The cast were phenomenal and put in 110% to bring us such amazing quality of work. Could watch so many times and not get bored of it! It's definitely worth a watch, and worth every coin I used to watch it. Amazing work Eric Guilmette and to all involved!

    I can see why this is Eric's "best vertical to date"

    "The Secret She Couldn't Escape" The title says it all! But is it a secret that she couldn't escape? You will have to watch it to find out! I see why Eric has made this vertical his best vert to date! I agree with him, this did not give off any vertical vibes! This is a short story! Now I do like the plot twist that was not expected at all! Loved how they showed Alex's imagination through the story without making any of the other characters look like "the villain or the B****" at the end. Overall It's well-cast and directed, showcasing a lot of thought in its execution, but it's unique and different. I see why Eric is so proud of this project! It excites me that Eric is exploring more genres in his acting career. The intensity, thrill, and suspense shown in TSSCE, clearly show that he can take on roles effortlessly!

    Now for the cons: My only concern was the background music, it could have been toned down a little bit! Other than that it's a solid Vertical.

    Eric, thank you for doing this project it's stunning! And I hope to see you explore more genres shortly.

    A series about an instructive story

    I really liked the series from start to finish. These series are the closest to me, because they are full of: action, passion, love, but most importantly, they present a story that can be instructive for the whole world. I had a lot of favorite scenes, but my favorite was when Alex and Camila met for the first time because it was like "love at first sight" between them. Eric Guilmette, who plays Alex Crow, is such a special, handsome, professional and talented actor who played his character perfectly. And the actress who plays Camila Vialante is a wonderful and beautiful actress who also has indescribably great talent. I think everyone in the world should see this series.

    Thrill Ride!!!!!!

    I was on the edge of my seat. This series was a thrill ride of excitement twist and turns I was not expecting. The story ebbed and flowed. The plot was intriguing and suspenseful. It was ride I didn't want to get off. I want it to keep going. The acting was top notch by the whole cast. The direction and production was executed brilliantly. 10 out 1,000 good. The ending I will not spoil. Mariana had me desiring so much for her character. I felt her anguish and her desire. Eric's was phenomenal as Alex Crow, an author trying to find his story or was the story finding him. It was thought provoking and the ending made me want more. Oh all the possibilities the ending could take.
