Awesome job , guys!!

I saw this movie at my house, I'm friends with one of the crew members, I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this movie. The acting was good, the script was hysterical, and I loved the cinematography. The lighting was some of the best I ever seen it was better then most big budget films. I laughed so hard I PEED A LITTLE. No joke.

My favorite scene was the alley way, I can't believe how awesome you guys made it look, it was something straight out of a classic noir film. I'm very fickle when it comes to movies that I like but this is truly one of them. I would love to see this get made into a big budget film so that I could enjoy it again on the big screen.

I can't wait to see what these guys will do next. Jose and Shaun are the Philly's dream team for indie film makers. I love it and you! I hope this goes far but if not Knock'em Dead trying boys!!!

Job well done

I loved it guys! This film was well produced and shot. For a film that only cost a few grand to make, it's a lot better than what's out in the theaters now a days. Be proud. You guys did a hell of a great job on this and it shows. Jose and Chris are a Tour De Force Team. Your chemistry works well together. You're like the Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen of Philly, haha. It was fun meeting you and your crew at North 3rd the other night. The two most down to Earth and approachable guys in the independent biz. You will definitely go far. Thanks for the DVD copy, I can't stop watching it and showing it to my family and friends. I will definitely spread the word about Knock 'em Dead. Good luck in Hollywood!

Two Guns Up for Knock'em Dead

After enjoying the hell out of the trailer on YouTube sometime back, I had anticipated getting a chance to see Knock'em Dead.

Well, I finally had the extreme pleasure of viewing this film about a month ago, and I gotta say, the wait was worth it. For a short feature, this movie is loaded with laughs and had me laughing from start to finish; even the end credits will have you chuckling with a song and dance number involving the entire cast.

Jose E. Cruz Jr. shows that he is a talented director and writer by creating such an entertaining movie that is made even more hilarious by Chris Ready's fantastic comedic skills.

My only wish is that Knock'em Dead could have been a little longer, but having it short was smart. It keeps the viewers wanting more. And that's what I look forward to: seeing more from Jose E. Cruz Jr.
