Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Liz Fickenscher I had no idea what to expect going into this film. I refrained from looking it up on IMDb prior to watching, and I didn't recognize any of the characters at first. This may be the first role Sean Young has ever had that she didn't COMPLETELY screw up. Now, before you jump all over me, Sean Young fans, it's OK for you to like her. I simply can't stand her. Most of the time, she'd be hard-pressed to act her way out of a paper bag. Her turn as our protagonist's spiteful, evil mother is pretty darn good. I wish she'd gotten more coaching on her accent - it was atrocious, and it seemed that the longer the film went on, the worse it got.And by evil I mean mean-spirited and nasty, not supernatural evil. You'll have to watch this film yourself to decide which parts you think are supernatural and which parts are interesting explorations into small community hysteria. Overall I was really impressed, and I would like to see more out of Chad Crawford Kinkle.
bukangelinajolie I am a big fan of horror movies. I watched enough to know that this movie has no passion both in thriller and horror. DISAPPOINTING. I read good reviews in IMDb before watching it but then wonder, hell, were those who wrote it actually their crews or what? Anyone who is unrelated to this movie should be very very very disappointed when they watch this film. No awesome story line, predictable enough, no good actors/actresses, low budget (obviously), boring, no good camera effects, no good background music, nothing that can be counted as amusing. If I were to make horror movie about pagan gods, it should be more lines to write about, not only "hey, there ere ancient gods and here how their daily activities look like". Or at least they can make it to be more mysterious about what the actress/actor will do next, the audiences should be entertained like that.
Phillip Tomasso III For his first feature film, writer and directer Chad Crawford Kinkle has crafted a chilling, redneck-hick horror legend film in Jug Face. Ar 81 minutes, the log line on IMDb reads: Jug Face tells the story of a pregnant teen trying to escape a backwoods community when she discovers that she may be sacrificed to a creature in a pit.The movie features Lauren Ashley Carter as Ada where close-knit families of moonshiners live to serve a pit deep in the woods. A potter creates jug with a face that resembles people within the community. The person "featured" must be sacrificed over an open, living pit filled with what looks like blood. A ghost-child is the speaker for the dead. When Ada discovers the newest made jug, it is her face depicted, her face looking back at her. Although betrothed, Ada is pregnant with another's child. She does not want to be the next Jug Face sacrifice, so she steals and hides the potted jug. Her actions cause a disruption in order. The ghost-child is not happy, nor is the community as more and more people needlessly die. In an attempt to right wrongs and stop needless sacrifices, Ada and the potter try to fix all that went wrong.This is a horror movie pure and simple. Frightening and gritty. It will not make you scream. Or jump. It will give you chills and perhaps have you sleep with the lights on.The cast is made up of lesser known name actors and actresses that are talented and believable. Carter is an amazing Ada. If you are looking for a compelling tale, filled with blood and the stuff urban legends are made of, then I recommend Jug Face. I give it a 7 out of 10 Stars.Phillip Tomasso Author of The Vaccination Trilogy www.philliptomasso.com
gavin6942 Jug Face tells the story of a pregnant teen (Lauren Ashley Carter) trying to escape a backwoods community when she discovers that she may be sacrificed to a creature in a pit.The film was produced by Andrew van den Houten, who had previously made the wonderful independent films "Headspace" (2005) and "Offspring" (2009). Camera work was handled by , who previously shot Lucky McKee's "The Woman" (2011). And, of course, one of the lead actors is none other than independent genius Larry Fesenden.Nicholas Rapold of The New York Times wrote, "Some low-budget manifestations of the supernatural jazz up the frights now and again, but as the novelty of worshiping a hole in the ground fades, the film paints itself into a corner." Horror critics were much more favorable, and rightly so. This is beautifully shot, well acted and an overall joy.
