RottenTomatoes Score: 92% (7.6/10 average) Box Office: Though not quite as micro-budget as their earlier features, Spring was still a relatively cheap affair, and in 12 cinemas has taken just $19,675, alongside a pervasive VOD release. The Verdict: Writer-director team Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead do a splendid job putting conventional genres in a blender with this riveting sci-fi horror romance starring Lou Taylor Pucci as a young man trying to get away from it all in Italy, when he comes across a beautiful young woman (Nadia Hilker) with a deep, dark secret. Beautifully shot, superbly acted and focusing more on character development than on its (admittedly still rather grotesque) special effects, Spring is a low-budget indie horror done right: give it the support it deserves.
Stay at home dad who spends as much time teaching his kids the merits of Martin Scorsese as possible (against the missus' wishes).
General video game, TV and film nut. Occasional sports fan. Full time loon.
