It’s Not Gonna Be Okay
Hate Crime Review
It’s pretty impressive to churn out two found footage films so close to one another and have them be so totally different. James Cullen Bressack’s Hate Crime is a raw, gritty film, which is best watched all by yourself. It’s Alex’s birthday and dad’s filming the event just like he does every year.

James Cullen Bressack’s To Jennifer is an outstandingly original film with one hell of a hook! Boasted that it was filmed completely on an iPhone, the production value isn’t for big film fans. What this movie does manage to pull off is … Read More
