I attended a Horror based film festival in Tampa over the weekend with my brother who lives in the area. Going in to this I had no clue what to expect other than to probably be bored with a bunch of Blair Witch / found footage rip offs and boy was I wrong. There were some good entries but my favorite was the last movie of the night, Rock Bottom Creek.
This movie had everything you could want like witty dialogue, creative situations, and crazy characters and tons of ass kickings. It was like Napolean Dynamite meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The costumes were really good, the effects were old school not CGI, and it looks like these guys took a beating making this movie. What I liked most were the jokes, the ending, and the bathroom scene. GROSS!!! The locations were awesome too.
The main character is this smart ass guy named Vick and the movie follows him and his girlfriend (who was very easy on the eyes) on a road trip through the deep south. They get caught up in the middle of nowhere and that is where the movie takes off and never slows down until the credits roll.
Without giving too much away the Sheriff is a wild dude and by far stole the show with his performance. I even saw him leaving the festival and he didn't have a country accent. His deputies were all really good too. They really put a bruising on...well you'll have to watch the movie to find out.
Good acting, great story, and could go pretty far. I wish the film festival let the audience pick our favorite films cause these guys have my vote. Good luck.
