Dark Reprieve (2008)
Definitely worth a look
Richard Boddington has set the bar a little higher for independent movie makers with his first feature film, Dark Reprieve. This movie is a creepy thriller with numerous plot twists and turns that kept me guessing right until the end. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'm still confused!
Though this film is definitely not my genre of choice, I still found a lot to admire. The production values are much higher than I'd expect from a lower-budget film. The cinematography is impressive and the editing is flawless. Even the soundtrack has been well chosen to increase suspense. My only criticism is the weak acting by his two leads. I found them distracting, as they weren't up to the standard of the production. I look forward to seeing what Boddington can do with a decent budget.
