Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
blazerclark A very atmospheric, dreary, slow burn. Amazing the tension and dread this film was able to make me feel while viewing. An example of how good writing and directing can make a viewer FEEL.
tekanologie I'm Dreaming of a White Doomsday is NOT for the faint of heart. It's bleak, it's depressing, it's heartbreaking, and it's utterly perfect as a film. The story is strong, the acting is top notch (even with a child actor, which is no small feat!) the set design is detailed and fits so well with the story. It's rare to find a movie where everything is done well. I'm one of those picky jerks that likes to point out continuity errors and nitpick over minutia.... not here. The amount of effort that went into ensuring that everything was just right is staggering. I reaaaallllly hope it comes out on DVD so I can make viewing it part of my annual Christmas festivities. It was that good!This movie proves that sometimes it's OK to kill the kid!
tomanddawnclark 10 Cloverfield Lane meets Black Christmas, with a side helping of The Mist. The last four minutes of this movie will stomp your childhood into little pieces. It makes The Road look like a feel good, family film. This movie is so bleak, emo kids could theoretically get more depressed watching it. It really needs to have a series of disclaimers or warnings. For example: If you watch this with your children, DSS should take them from you. Or... Do not watch this with any sharp objects nearby, or while under the influence of depressants. With all that being said, I loved it.
darkwingmantis-769-226274 I was lucky enough to see an advance copy of a little film that could called I'm Dreaming of a White Doomsday directed by a man named Mike Lombardo, a sadistic, soulless filmmaker who wants to ruin everything you find cheery.On a slim budget of around 10 grand, Lombardo and his crew have managed to pull of a once in a lifetime feat by taking a tired trope, that of an apocalyptic Christmas, spinning it around, placing it firmly on its head and then proceeds to kick it in the balls.I'm Dreaming of a White Doomsday is basically a one set piece, set just before Christmas in the fallout shelter of a young family. After the father leaves to forage for supplies the mother is left alone to care for her young child while dealing with the realities of the end of the world.If that sounds like a thin as you can be plot, that's because it is and that is all that the movie needs. However, with the powerhouse performance of Hope Bikle as our mother with no rope to hang onto, you get dragged into this deceptively dark and depressing movie kicking and screaming and you will not be able to look away.If the word Indie scares you at all, or has a certain perceived notion in your head, just forget it. This movie looks and feels like it was shot by a group of Hollywood hotshots out for a good time. There was never a minute that I had the thought of "Oh, well, I see what the filmmakers were going for, but they had very little to work with, bravo to them." No, This is the movie that 10 Cloverfield Lane wished it could be.And to top it all off, when you finally think that you know where this movie is going, it just turns around, gives you the middle finger and politely asks you for your guts!The gang over at Reel Splatter Productions have put together a movie that cruises in at around an hour and 10 minutes but will never let you forget the time you spend with them. They are hitting the festival circuit now and if you have the chance, make sure you go check them out! These guys will be going far, and I for one welcome their fresh eye to the genre! Well played, boys… Well played….
