Windy Wilkin’s Death on the Border is a thought-provoking movie that forces you to contemplate one of the real dangers and problems of society: child trafficking. It’s common knowledge that scores of young girls and children are trafficked every year. These young girls are forced into prostitution or are sold to high-paying clients. Death on the Border isn’t entirely fictional but draws inspiration from real events. This makes Windy Wilkin’s film all the more haunting, realizing the ordeal all those women and girls had to go through. At the beginning of the film, Maddy (Shannon Elizabeth) is picked up by a child trafficker who is smuggling young girls over the border. The trafficker tried to force himself on Maddy, but she killed him with the gun she was hiding in her boots. Maddy freed the girls and asked one of them to drive until they were safe.

Deany Bean is Dead kicks off with our protagonist Deany (Allison Marie Volk) sleeping in a car, staking out a house while a murder podcast plays. It is encouraging the listener to murder their enemies by repeatedly pointing out how brilliant it would feel. It is quite odd and unbelievable. I found myself asking the question… if I do not have any enemies, does that mean I lived a boring life?
The podcast is foreshadowing the film, but it is doing it in a clunky way that does not quite work. It acts as a form of Dexter-style narration, but it does not quite work. It is not a bad idea as a convention,...

"Imagine how you would feel to squeeze the last breath out of their hollow body..." Global Releasing has unveiled the official trailer for an indie black comedy called Deany Bean is Dead, made by filmmaker Mikael Kreuzriegler. The "charmingly kooky" indie comedy stars Allison Marie Volk as Deanna, a "down-on-her-luck woman" who tries to win back her ex-boyfriend at his engagement party without revealing that her recently strangled boss is in the trunk of her car. Ouch. That is definitely crazy. The cast also includes Christopher Glenn Cannon, Sarah Sidak, Wendy Wilkins, and Paulina Bugembe. This is another crazy indie comedy about a person who's had it with crappy people around her. Might be fun? Or might not. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Mikael Kreuzriegler's Deany Bean is Dead, from YouTube: A down-on-her-luck woman (Allison Marie Volk) tries to win back her ex-boyfriend at his engagement party without...
