Cold Creek Manor

A thriller that can’t decide who the bad guy should be: the upscale urbanites (Sharon Stone and Dennis Quaid) who buy a country estate for cheap or the working-class former owner (Stephen Dorff) who couldn’t make his mortgage payments. As their showdown grows increasingly ridiculous, eventually resembling the intelligence of a Friday the 13th flick, the true villain appears to be studio meddling.

Drama Rated NR

“… aims to be a big-screen version of a lurid pulp crime novel.”

Drama Rated NR

“… a scrappy, neo-realist tale of societal scrounging that’s paused by poetic moments of slow cinema.”

Tropical Malady (2004)

Drama Rated NR

“Unusually sensitive, in the sense that every element seems to pulse with its own life force. . .”
