Two sets of crooks -- one of beginners, the other old hands at the game -- are lured by the promise of the big heist in a comedy drama from writer and director James Hausler. Wilson (Robert Forster) has just been released from prison after serving 25 years for armed robbery. While Wilson is edging into retirement age, he still has an old score to settle with Mackey (Robert Loggia), a career criminal who helped put Wilson behind bars. Wilson teams up with Marvin (Richard Roundtree), a fellow ex-con who also has a beef against Mackey, and together they set up a heist in order to hit their rival where it hurts. Meanwhile, Buckely (James Hausler) is a slacker who thinks a life of crime might be easier than holding down a real job. With the help of his pals, Buckley maps out a robbery that should earn him a sizable payday, though it doesn't take long for his inexperience to become an issue. Also featuring Lucie Arnaz and Christopher Clark, Wild Seven received its world premiere at the 2006 Los Angeles Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Low-budget genre specialist David DeCoteau takes the helm for this retro-minded tale of revenge concerning a brother's attempt to claim an eye for an eye following the brutal murder of his sister - a beautiful artist. Rachel was a talented young artist living an idyllic life at her secluded, lakefront house. Then, one day, a group of sadistic killers showed up on her doorstep to take her life in the most horrific way imaginable. When Rachel's brother Travis found out about the crime, he was devastated. But now that devastation has turned to rage, and Travis won't rest until every last one of the soulless psychopaths who claimed his sister's life has experienced her pain and suffering firsthand. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

A young woman discovers the fine line between paranoia and having your worst fears become real in this tale of terror. Molly Wright (Danica McKellar) is a typical college student sharing a house off-campus with her friends. Between her criminology classes, trying to keep up with her homework, and working as a volunteer with a local church group, Molly is wearing herself to a frazzle, so many of her friends think her imagination is working overtime when she begins to wonder aloud if Geoffrey Martin (Tobin Bell), the eccentric artist who has moved into the house next door, might be a serial killer. Molly's friends have a hard time believing her, but Paul Davidson (Billy Dee Williams), a police detective, thinks something funny is going on in the neighborhood after a number of missing persons cases are reported. But can Paul build a case against the killer before Molly becomes his next victim? Good Neighbor was the first feature film from director Todd Turner. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
