Well-scripted micro-budget action spoof wonderment

We found the red-band trailer for this film via ex-Low Budget Pictures/new-Warlock Home Video's Facebook page, and being fans of micro-budget cinema were really interested in ordering.

If you're not put off by fine cheesy films fashioned with a fraction of the purse spent on a Troma film (watch the trailer, you'll get the feel), this one is definitely recommended. It is well-cast, the dialogue is smart, funny, and fast-paced, peppered with hat-tips to mainstream influences, and the flawed characters are endearing.

The fantastic Trent Haaga does steal several (very humorous) scenes, but he does that in most films he's in.

The filmmakers definitely put a great deal of love into the crafting of this film, and hopefully it'll find its audience.
