    This movie had a really good story that you could really get into. I found myself cursing at some characters and feeling empathy towards others, which shows the acting is outstanding.

    Very pleasant surprise. Really made you care about the charactors and the experiences that they have coming of age in the south. Story concerns a young man and his talent for horror make-up and movies , but as you get involved in the story you find the true horror is in the life him and his family lead. Very highly rated 5 stars !!

    Robert Hall is an exceptional individual. He has always been a creative genius. I should know, I attended school with him for years. This movie is a reflection of his personality in this close-to-home drama. It is worth adding it to your queue. Lightning bug has a great cast of up and comers. You will definitely hear more great things to come from this director. 2 thumbs way up!
