Gray Matter

This movie is really uncomfortable and really gross and it's absolutely amazing for it, the direction is superb, the visual effects are outstanding, i sat watching talking to a producer and we were discussing how it's better than most Hollywood big budget horror movies. Outstanding.

I was lucky enough to be apart of the Stephen King Rules Dollar Baby Film Festival and I was able to see this film and omg.... this was insane! One of the best dollar baby films I've seen. Amazing job to everyone involved!

Red Clark's take on Stephen King's eerie short tale is an effective old school, practical effects driven monster romp. It feels like a love letter to nutso horror films from the 80's, but never falls into kitschy "retro vibe" territory. It's very reminiscent of Stuart Gordon's early work with gooey gore and a fantastic, intense score. It's campy but takes itself and the craft seriously. Highly recommend for anyone with a taste for gooey gore or atmospheric style. Seek it out genre fans.

Based on a Stephen King story, this short film is filled with impressive natural effects. But what is most significant is the emotional atmosphere that director Red Clark creates. He and his believable cast, including a great Larry Fessenden and esteemed Chicago theater actor Aaron Christensen, honestly capture the rhythms of rural life and its grizzled inhabitants. Everyone who grew up, awestruck and outcast, in such circumstances will find a piece of their past magnified, wisely, onscreen for them here.

I was pleasantly surprised at how well this short film was. It's engaging, it's terrifying, and it's a lot of fun. The atmosphere was perfectly woven to draw you into the film as well the acting being superb! I really enjoyed the cinematography and the creature effects were top notch especially for a short film. I highly recommend this to any horror fan!
