"Damian McCarthy’s HOKUM [is] his most polished and unnerving horror movie yet ... continuing his streak for folkloric tales of supernatural karma and spine-tingling terror with a dark sense of humor."

"Jai Courtney-Emily Browning['s] dark comedy has bite.... A promising and imaginative feature debut."

"An emotionally charged genre-bending mystery that keeps you firmly in its grip, anchored by another knockout performance by genre stalwart Jessica Rothe."

"Mischievously conflating fact and fiction [in CLAIRE'S HAT Director Bruce], McDonald creates a charming artifact that unfolds like Entertainment Tonight hosted by Jean-Luc Godard."

"A slasher that deserves a better legacy."

"A charming story about the ways in which we are both beholden to and repulsed by the traditions and family obligations laid at our feet, THE BEARDED GIRL is sure to speak to young girls in a way that will truly matter."

"TRACY & MARTINA GOIN' OUT WEST lovingly mocks a refined flavour of Canadian delusion.... The girls get their moment in the limelight, and make the most of it in their own chaotic fashion."

"Mickey Reece creates a one-of-a-kind dream-like descent into danger, death, and delirium that’s as unbelievable as it is unpredictable.... It’s an exciting stepping-stone in the career of one of the most exciting modern genre filmmakers."

"A beautifully haunted experience."

"This zany horror-comedy is the haircut from hell...in a good way. A villain with truckloads of personality goes a long way in a film that never shys away from absurdity."
