From The Creator Of Final Destination Comes ‘Don’t Look Back’ – Out This Summer

From Jeffrey Riddick, the creator of Final Destination comes Don’t Look Back, which shines a brutal light on society’s habit of watching terrible things happen but doing nothing to stop it. Remember, Karma comes for us all. In the film, Caitlin Kramer, a woman overcoming a tragic past, is among several people who see a man being fatally assaulted. When the witnesses start dying mysteriously, she must unearth if they’re being targeted by a killer or something far more insidious. Kourtney Bell, Bryan Batt, Will Stout, Skyler Hart, Jeremy Holm, Jaqueline Fleming, Amanda Grace Benitez, Damon Lipari, Han Soto, Dean J. West, and Stephen Twardokus star. Don’t Look Back, which we call “dark and entertaining” in our review, lands on Digital and DVD on June 14, 2021, presented by Dazzler Media. You can pre-order your copy now on Amazon and iTunes.

Movie Review: ‘Sweet Water’ (2021)

From director Justin McMillan comes Sweet River, out in theaters and on VOD on April 23, 2021, from Gravitas Ventures. The film centers on Hanna (Lisa Kay), a grieving mother whose son was killed by a serial killer, however, the boy’s body was never found, and she never found acceptance. At the beginning of the film, Hanna rents the cottage on the property where the serial killer lived in hopes that she might find her son’s body in the nearby field, not knowing that the land holds many dark secrets. A bit of slow-burn, Sweet River is a thriller at heart, exploring death, grief, acceptance, regret, and how far a parent would go for their child. While there are paranormal aspects of the film, the death of the child takes more of the focus in the story. Lisa Kay did great with the role she was given, which was an emotional one. She was believable, which is always great. Eddie
