Sympathy (2007)
Sympathy! This beautiful masterpiece needs to see the silver screen!
At the Horror Hound Weekend convention this past July I was hearing chatter about a movie called Sympathy. Being a photographer myself, the first thing that attracted me to the movie was the poster. Excellent artwork! Just the poster itself has drama! Being that said, I had to see what all the chatter was about. Since I work for Horror Hound, I was very busy during the con shooting pics for the magazine. I became so busy that my editor ran up to me and asked if I was going to catch the ending of Sympathy. UGH! HOW COULD I FORGET ABOUT IT! So I went in the screening room and caught the last 15 minutes of the film. The last 15 minutes was AWESOME to say the least! I was hoping when I do get the chance to watch the full feature that the last 15 minutes wasn't the best the film had to offer. I was hoping the film would live up to the chatter and the poster art I loved...lol! A big thanks to director Andrew Moorman for not only sending me a copy of Sympathy but taking the time to have the cast & crew sign it for me. After watching the last 15 minutes of the film I had to have the cast & crew sign it. I had a strong feeling this was a masterpiece. I invited 5 of my friends over to watch the film with me. After the film was over everyone including me were speechless! This was an independent film? Could've fooled me! Sympathy had the sound, video, actors and editing of a blockbuster hit! I went and seen 'Vacancy' which I thought was a pretty good film and did take place in a hotel & outside the hotel room. Now 'Vacancy' made it to the big screen and Sympathy hasn't?! Come on you big time film companies, you fools are bypassing a truly great film! These actors, director, producers and all that worked on the film has a huge film career in their future as soon as the right people give Sympathy a look at. Everyone involved in this film will be walking the red carpet. This film deserves the silver screen! So for anyone out there that has a chance to see this movie, DO IT!. Anyone that has a chance to meet the cast & crew of Sympathy, better get their sigs! They're definitely just around the corner from being viewed on the silver screen worldwide! I can't wait to see what Andrew has up his sleeve for the future. Marina Shtelen, Steven Pritchard & Aaron Boucher, don't take anything less for your next film than what Sympathy is. You three are excellent actors in my eyes and deserve nothing less. My very BEST wishes to all of you and can't wait to see you on the big screen!!! Al Horror Hound
