Left for Dead (2007)

Blew my mind!

Saw an advance copy of this film which comes out next month. Good lord what a mind trip. It's both beautifully affecting and horribly shocking. I haven't seen a film with so much intense pain and love in a long time. It just gets under your skin then chews into your heart. The story is a ghost story and as it is with most ghost stories, tragedy is at it's core. The actors in this film are so vivid that they didn't seem to be acting, especially the main one Victoria Maurete. Her acting is so powerful that I could feel what she was going through. I haven't seen her before but damn was she moving and beautiful. Those eyes of hers are unreal. I won't give away much because surprising revelations is what pushes this story forward. But be forewarned that this is a very intense and original western. I loved it.
