This was such Shiite, I watched the whole thing, I doubt anyone else has. Another idiot with a camera and 20 bucks. All reviews are "unpaid" involved... includes IMDb. Try to watch it... you won't last, it sucks so bad it's painful. Oh the mess that made this will add tons of codoos to erase mine.... I hope I saved some of you time..........Shame on you... SHAME....BE EMBRRASSED for your involvement in this......

Just watched this, glad its over, it couldn't end faster... I have been severely mislead by reviews from sites and a couple of user reviews here stating it's some kind of masterpiece.. I can assure you it's far from it!The main actress is decent mostly but every other character was annoying! I didn't care for one of them... Especially the mother.David long, who wrote the screenplay kept his own name for his character, who may be one of the worst serial killers I have seen, and (as another reviewer here mentioned), seems to be only entertaining himself and not us, the audience... His proceedings weren't even remotely scary.. He was more like some Hillbilly who had some bright idea to kill people and make a movie... Some scenes were actually cringe-worthy.... Also the excessive smoking seemed to be some lame attempt at character development? I will say that there was some nice shots in it and the main actress was likable but this missed the mark for me...

Pieces of Talent has been a magnificent surprise for me that almost didn't happen! I was attending a horror con on the Gulf Coast for the weekend and the Pieces of Talent poster and trailer kept catching my eye. I did a little research and decided to pick it up on the last day of the con...can I say, "Best. Decision. Ever." The independent horror scene is where I keep finding my favorite movies this year. This one did not disappoint! It is a perfect balance of horror, love, horror, art, horror, gore, and a little bit more horror. Add two great leads (Kristi Ray and David Long...who happens to play himself in this movie, kind of scary!) plus a perfect pace and you've got an excellent movie! This movie will evoke many different emotions from you. I felt tense the entire movie, but at the same time I felt happy during some scenes, sad during others, and disgusted during a few...the gore was great! :-D The direction and look of this movie is absolutely beautiful, also. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone. Can't wait to see what the future holds for these guys! Wonderful movie!

Another perfect example that independent flicks aren't that bad at all. This is a pure horror with all elements in tact. It's beautifully shot and it do has an arty feeling sometimes but don't let that be in the way of seeing this beauty. I was surprised by 2 things, the acting that is excellent coming from Kristi Ray (Charlotte) and David Long (as himself). The other thing is the gore added in some scene's. The effects for such kind of flick are amazing. We follow Charlotte who is working at a strip club and hates every minute of it. By taking a break outsite she comes across David who just been smashed together. David introduces himself and Charlotte believes every minute what he says resolving in a friendship. But David has a dark side.The flick starts off with excellent gore and from there we do get to know both main leads. Sometimes it do move a bit slow but the way it was edited and filmed kept me watching. The gore and horror comes in slowly, first you have the hammer smashing that moves into the harder stuff. There's also a bit of nudity at the strip club and just watch one girl what she can do with her juggs. But the nudity isn't gratuitous, it do adds towards the depravity. Charlotte seeing some future with David and David seeing Charlotte as the perfect item for his film you can see what is coming.And did I mention the score that moves from weird sounds to the typical country style. Yes, it all fits in perfectly with the way of shooting. Don't expect a slasher or a cruel horror, this is more about the desperate meeting the sicky, and a sicky it is.Gore 2/5 Nudity 1,5/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5
