Synopsis

A military expedition in Siberia gone wrong. The existence of humanity is in peril as Inanna, Sumerian goddess of lust and war has summoned a giant meteor to destroy the planet, after being accidentally set free from her ancient prison. The government has been overturned in a Communist take-over and the citizens of the world; brainwashed. In humanity's darkest hour, the ancient entity of Gilgamesh, older than the cosmos themselves, must decide whether or not to serve of mankind's final hope. Meanwhile, Inanna has hand selected the one man; married man and archaeologist, David Murphy, to live out the rest of eternity with her. Gilgamesh and Inanna are quickly targeted by the new government as potential weapons of mass destruction, and soon the apocalypse has begun.

Leofwine_draca Okay, I'll give GILGAMESH credit for being something other than a cheesy and predictable slasher, but this micro budget production is so awful and indescribable that it becomes virtually unwatchable after the first ten minutes or so. I appreciate the effort made to depict a snowbound Siberia in the film's opening sequences, but the plot then goes off on a tangent involving religion, politics, and various esoteric themes.Unfortunately as with all indie productions this all amounts to a whole bunch of actors doing very little other than having philosophical conversations. It's patience-testing stuff for sure and the continuing refusal to make sense or deal with concrete themes and ideas makes it a real chore to sit through. There's little incident, a nonsensical story, no realism, and awful acting throughout. I hated it, I'm afraid.
MrsFaces Gilgamesh is one of the better New England independent films I've seen in a long time. This company always works hard at putting the best product they can out there and Gilgamesh is just another example of that. It also has a great soundtrack. Having a good soundtrack always helps makes a film even better. Gilgamesh is proof that you don't need a lot of money to make a good movie. It just takes talent and dedication. I'm glad I came across this film, thanks to all the promotion they did for it. I found it on a couple of different websites I frequent. I hope they decide to submit to film festivals. I'm looking forward to see what these guys put out after this!
jon-1073 The quality in this movie is unbelievable for the budget! The photography, storyline and acting are superb. The locations are believable and well planned out. There were no details overlooked. His use of lighting and sound gave the movie the feeling you were there and part of the action. I hope this is not the last we see in a long line of features we see from this group of talented people. Richard Chandler is well on his way after putting this movie together. I look forward to seeing more from Boston Film Family. This will be a definite winner on the festival circuit and should be picked up for distribution as well. Congratulations!
kenmccartney2 Gilgamesh, the latest product to come from the mind of Richard Chandler and his crew at Boston Film Family, is a refreshing change from the never ending crap that has been called Indie Film over the last few years. Jousha Davies and the lovely Melantha Blackthorne shine in this sci-fi thriller set in the not to distant future. Joseph Ganniscoli (the Sopranos) brings his years and talent to a small but powerful role and helps narrate the film. Oselito Joseph, stands tall, as the title character Gilgamesh. An ancient being that has come to help us in our darkest hours. He is pitted against Inanna(Emily Coleman), an ancient evil unwittingly set free from her ancient prison. Richard Chandler not only wrote, directed and produced the film, he also brings to life the character Lars. Chandler is as comfortable on screen as he is behind the scenes. Rounding off the cast are a plethora of local new england talent that make this film their own. All in all this film is a breakthrough for the BFF franchise. Their largest endeavor to date has proved to be their best work yet. Be on the lookout for more from this great lil group! I could only imagine what they could do with a real budget!
