Transient

Transient is nothing short of dynamic. It's lofty, dark and brooding. Well-paced and written with depth, Chris Ruppert's vision shines and glitches through inventive storytelling. A stellar cast with chops, it stars Greg Poppa, Sugey Cruz, and Eric Frances Melaragni as each deliver gripping performances offering edge of your seat character studies juxtaposed against the backdrop of the perils of technology used for dire purposes. The work is easily reminiscent of other science fiction classics that push boundaries, such as Flatliners and Dead Ringers. Do yourself a favor and view this film now!

Really great story line, well written and equally well produced. Cinematography really captured the mood and heart beat of the scenes.

The entire cast was amazing! Bringing to life each character with well throughout choices through the entire film.

Love the fact that this is a PA produced film - so many talented people in and around this area, I really like the "home-grown" aspect of film-making when there is a local aspect to it.

I love a good sci-fi movie and this one did not disappoint. A few cleaver twists and turns, will keep the audience on the edge of their seats.

Definitely worth a watch!

Ever wondered what Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was like if it were a horror film? Well, Transient fits the bill.

Full disclosure, I was a backer for this, and I know some of the people involved, so I might be a little biased, but then again, who isn't? That said, they didn't disappoint. But if there's one critique I could give, it's that it could've gone harder and more visceral, such as with the blood, gore, sex, and nudity, which could be boiled down to budget, among other things, yet this is a good start, and I'm in for whatever's next.

Also, nice placement of the book UBIK on the desk. I'm ashamed to say I've yet to read it, but it's on the list. I share the same first name as Philip K. Dick. And you can't spell "philosophical" without PHIL.

The storyline was brilliant, the cinematography was amazing! I was especially happy to hear that they Take pride in hiring from their local state of Pennsylvania for these projects!!

I love the sci-fi genre and this film had me guessing and wanting to watch it again to see what I might've missed. You can tell they took time to research the science behind the concepts that they use to tell the story. As a tech nerd, I loved how thru in math and real tech (Arduino), VSCode, whiteboard diagrams, TPUs and adjusting parameters while they are training the model all showed little technical details that added to setting up the storyline and making it feel authentic even to my domain level expert scrutiny.

I wait to see What these filmmakers come up with next! Bravo.

I can't wait to watch them again!!

Very pleased we got to see this at it's premiere. My wife and I loved it and were very impressed. She got scared and gripped my hand tight! She said it's the scariest movie she's seen in a long time, and it was mind-blowing. I really enjoyed it, too. It was a thought-provoking and gripping story, looked and sounded great, had talented actors all around. It was darkly beautiful. The music was epic. No spoilers, but there were some things in story that may be open to interpretation (or I misunderstood), so it created some good discussion on the way home. Looking forward to watching it again and seeing what these filmmakers get involved in next.
