THE SEED REVIEW

  What starts out as girls weekend away in the Mojave desert becomes a tale of horror, death, and alien invasion. Starring: Lucy Martin, Chelsea Edge, and Sophie Vavasseur Directed and written by: Sam Walker   “The Seed” isn’t planted in the ground, but more like falls out of the sky. Yes, it looks like some alien has landed in the backyard to spoil the weekend fun for Diedre (Lucy Martin), Heather (Sophie Vavasseur), and Charlotte (Chelsea Edge). Diedre and Heather are looking forward to some relaxation, maybe some drugs and drinking, and definitely as many social media pictures as they can take. Charlotte is pretty much the opposite of them, and plays the moral compass of the group.    The weekend starts with the girls watching a meteor shower, and seeing something take a dive into the pool. They have no clue what it is, or what to do with it. They try to make the most of the weekend working around it until some strange things start happening. By the time they get ...

Of course things have bee...

A BANQUET REVIEW

  A widowed mother is radically tested when her teenage daughter insists a supernatural experience has left her body in service to a higher power. Starring: Sienna Guillory, Jessica Alexander, and Ruby Stokes Directed by: Ruth Paxton Written by: Justin Bull   “A Banquet” of food is offered, but there’s a lack of appetite going around. There’s no blaming anyone for the lack of appetite after the disturbing opening. Holly (Sienna Guillory) is taking care of her apparently sick husband, but isn’t there in time to save him from poisoning himself. The death hits her hard, but also is effecting her daughters Betsy (Jessica Alexander) and Isabelle (Ruby Stokes).    Betsy seems to get the worst of it, as she now struggles to eat. She’s not hungry anymore, and goes into convulsions when she’s basically forced to swallow anything. It might be expected after the loss of her father, or maybe even if it’s just a medical condition. However, as this moves on she gives a bizarre exp...
