Spook Bridge

I saw the movie two nights and I really enjoyed it! If you saw it and was expecting a Hollywood A list movie then maybe you would not like what you saw but even the A list movies don't please everyone. All I'm saying is considering the budget it was produced on and the talent that was cast I would challenge anyone to produce a picture this good especially the in house special effects! Since this has been shown only locally, at this writing, I know that some of the bad review's it has received is the small town jealousy that goes with seeing a hometown son doing something successful.I do know making a film is a labor of many years and few ever get this far! In fact so many B list movies have become box office hits, they are really the backbone of this industry. So before we throw this movie under the bus think about what this studio is trying to do by bringing a part of this multi billion dollar industry to this area!

I had the misfortune of seeing this back when it "released". It was atrocious then. I came across the "very professional" dvd at a friend's house so I decided to give it another watch. It was even worse. And to make matters worse, the lame edge lord ending with a baby being barbecued isn't a good ending. It's just gross and unearned. The best thing I can say is this movie has pretty much disappeared into obscurity. If only RKDS and everyone involved could do the same that would be great.

The movie is poorly made, the acting is terrible, the story is awful, I don't think there is a positive thing I can say about this bane to cinema.

I had the privilege not only seeing the movie Spook Bridge during its local premiere, but also the privilege of being in the film. Therefore, my comments on the film could be construed to be a little bias. However, on a review, let the chips fall where they may. While watching the film, I saw an occasional extra time spent on a scene or two that could have been edited to make the scene a little more concise. But then I would like to ask anyone to tell me that they have never seen, even in the biggest budget films with the best directors, a little wasted time. I thought the special effect were also very good. The Director and the Director of Cinematography utilized the time spent with actors during film wisely. I admire the energy Kirkland and Sebastian spent to edit and promote a really good film. The people of Brooks County and the City of Quitman should be proud to have been a part of Spook Bridge. I saw one review that stated that the film made all the people in the area appear to be red necks and various other descriptive names that I won't repeat. However, a film is a fiction unless otherwise indicated as a true story. Therefore, since when did we start stereotyping people, if we do, we shouldn't, as portrayed in the film as indicative of the actual people in the area where a film was shot? I stated to friends after the premier that Spook Bridge is as good as or better than a lot of films I have watched on Netflix and other venues that include many early film makers such as Roy Kirkland and Doug Sebastian. I still stand by that comment and when you get to see it, you will say the same.

I have to say I'm surprised.

RKDS has come a LONG way for creating such an incredible film. From beginning to finish, I was astonished. The cast and crew have outdone themselves.

From cameos (The Oh ROY! Show) to amazing actors (Domenick DeFrank, Chandler Lane, Megan Pitts, and John Youmans), the film was absolutely beautiful.

The film is aimed for National release. And I think it'll make it.

What a fantastic movie. The cinematography, the acting, the story. Ground breaking. Breath taking.
