First Lines: Raymond Chandler - Farewell My Lovely
It was one of the mixed blocks over on Central Avenue, the blocks that are not yet all negro.
End Game (2006)

Not so bad conspiracy thriller with some production value, a good cast and - an unlikely plot.

Now that's a collaboration I certainly wouldn't want to miss.

Sheitan (2006)
A group of youngsters go out to a disco late one night and accidentally run into a shepherd who has prepared himself for a night of Satanic worship.
Over-the-top and weird low budget horror thriller that successfully plays with the audience's expectations, but somehow doesn't add up to be a coherent movie.
In Her Skin (2009)
When a pretty 15-year-old Rachel goes missing, the police dismiss the incident as a runaway, but her parents don't believe it.
Intense drama with an excellent cast that explores the tragedy from the points of view of all involved.
