Sheryl

Hilarious, thought provoking, and a bloody good time! I was laughing out loud with the audience through out the entire movie and at the end of it I was team Sheryl all the way! It was a refreshing and a different angle for a horror film. The movie sheds light on all of the societal pressures and beauty standards that women struggle with everyday. The actors were all phenomenal and I was particularly moved by the lead actress. She did a stunning job bringing Sheryl to life and gets you to empathize with the character even with all of the horrific acts she commits. I can't wait to see this movie again!

The indie film "Sheryl" directed by Justin Best, takes audiences on a bold, satirical horror ride through the twisted standards of beauty in modern society. The films strikes a balance of gore and humor, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish. Anthea Neri Best's portrayal of Sheryl, was exceptional, her ability to switch between charming and chilling with just a creepy smile is tone setting. Sheryl offers a unique narrative that parodies classic horror motifs with references to iconic films like "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre." Sheryl is an unmissable film that showcases the creative potential within indie cinema.

I was fortunate enough to catch a screening of this film a few months back, and I absolutely adore this movie! Horror Comedy is a genre that is tough to pull off, but this films balances the scares and laughs effectively. The pacing is solid, the cinematography and direction are top notch, but its script is a real stand-out; underneath the thick layer of blood splattering the screen, there's a deep emotional heart at its core. Add in some excellent practical effects (and a stand-out mask,) Sheryl is a Horror icon in the making! I had a wonderful time viewing this movie, and can easily recommend it to Horror/Comedy/Rom-Com fans of all backgrounds!

What better way to call much needed attention to society's pervasive expectation that a woman look and behave a certain way, than a psychopathic, rage-filled (and extremely fun to watch) blood-bath of a horror movie? Having grown up on Freddy K, Jason V, and Michael M., SHERYL is a slasher horror film much enjoyed by this 80's kid! But pull back some layers and you also find an all important message that hell-hath-no-fury-like-a-woman who has been made to believe she isn't enough! SHERYL isn't just beautifully shot, it's also well directed and to say Anthea Neri Best "kills it" in the titular role would be an understatement. Her revenge path is a bloody damn good ride!

This is the top of the mountain when it comes to indie film making! It's a fun ride with so much heart and honesty. The production value is amazing with beautiful framing, lighting camera work and everything comes together to create a wonderful and unique feeling of dread while also keeping it light hearted when the situation calls for it. The main actress does a phenomenal job in the roll and makes the audience relate to and sympathize with her character, even tho she is doing some truly gruesome acts.

This movie brings the emotion, the story and most importantly it brings the blood!! This is a true horror movie, however, this is also the kind of movie that will make fans out of non horror movie lovers! Can not recommend this movie enough for horror fans and non horror fans alike!!
