A young woman begins to look into a series od strange
disappearances in her town with the help of her brother and a friend. The
disappearances appear to have something to do with “the pig people” a legendary
bunch of people who do terrible things.
This is a nifty little thriller. I’m not going to say it
breaks any new ground, but I will happily say that the film instead takes
something similar to tales we’ve heard before and dresses it up so well that we
fall in love it. There is a reason that some frequently told tales are more
loved than others and it is in the hands of the storyteller. In this case it’s
director Kevin Lewis who shows after the very fun WILLIE’S WONDERLAND that he
is one of the best directors working today. Lewis has made two great popcorn films and his
work will make you want to see what he is doing next.
I had a blast watching this and I wish I had seen it at a
packed festival screening where the energy of a similarly focused group of
people makes it something greater. I will be seeing this again.
This film is a blast
Recommended.
