GREAT PRESS REVIEWS:
Echo Chamber Podcast Interview with Writer/Director Martin Gooch and Producer/Actress Krista DeMille
“Full of thrills and spills” Sci-Fi London
“Strangely Wonderful” Hunter Todd, World Fest-Houston
“An Absolute Joy” Nick Nicholson, CNN
“DeMille is terrific!” Kim Newman
“Eccentric & Effervescent” Anton Bitel, Projected Figures
“I have to give Martin Gooch a lot of credit because the film reaches what seems to have been its inevitable end all along, only to take a very different and unexpected turn, one which offers a little hope for the future.” Mark Cole, Rivets on the Poster
“Krista DeMille’s performance as Kate anchors the film: she offers us a character who is definitely not superhuman, who makes mistakes, and who can and does get hurt. It is that very ordinariness in the midst of chaos that holds this at times surreal film together… The dystopia that the film offers is familiar, but we really never have seen a heroine quite like this.” Mark Cole, Rivets on the Poster
“…the real strength of the film is in its heroine (DeMille is terrific) and her interesting, believable relationship with a daughter who loves her but also naively thinks of the exploitative Joe as her boyfriend. It’s one of a breed of end of the world movies which find believably ravaged and ruined locations all too easily in the here and now.”
Kim Newman, Sci-Fi London
