A Place Among the Dead

I watched the incredibly powerful worldwide premiere of "A Place Among The Dead." It's Juliet Landau's directorial debut. Expect MANY more amazing films from this multi-talented woman. WOW WOW WOW.

A truly original work that encourages not only insightful and thought-provoking discussion about the nature and repercussions of narcissism but also deep self-reflection about the effects of narcissism in the viewers' own life and experiences. A fantastically meaningful work from a wonderful artist and team

Juliet Landau's feature film directorial debut explores some dark themes. It's a raw look at narcissism and how one can lose themselves when they find themselves consumed by darkness. Juliet's performance is brilliant. She really opens up and lets the audience see her at her most vulnerable. The cinematography is beautiful. Great cameos by some famous faces playing themselves. The interviews were so natural i thought they were excepts from Landau's unreleased companion project The "Undead" series which features interviews with writers, actors and directors who have worked on vampire driven projects. But, it turns out, the interviews in the film were actually scripted and performed by the celebrities who were playing hybrid versions of themselves. Sheer brilliance.

I have never seen a film like this in my life - just incredible. I thought the way it tackled the subject of narcissism through the metaphor of vampires was just poetic. Juliet's performance was amazing, so much heart and depth - it was also incredibly brave of her open up about something so personal. I wish there were more real and honest films like this out there. I have watched it three times now, every time I watch I notice something new, and every time I am left in stunned tears.

I watched the movie on the word wide virtually premiere and I was thrilled! The film is amazing, surprising, fascinating and moving. Do yourself a favour and watch it too! Juliet Landau and her husband Deverill Weekes and everybody else who is in the movie are really amazing! I am looking forward to watch A PLACE AMONG THE DEAD again and again :)
