Closing Night It Stains the Sand Red Colin Minahan, USA, 2016, 92m
The solo feature directorial debut of Colin Minahan, one half of the Vicious Brothers (Grave Encounters, Extraterrestrial), makes his strongest impression yet with this engaging, visually striking film, set during apocalyptic times, about a woman, Molly (a fearless Brittany Allen), who finds herself stranded in the desert after her dumbass boyfriend is killed by a zombie.
On this week's edition of my new Deadline video series Behind the Lens, which
features conversations with top directors, I speak with Greta Gerwig, who is making her
solo directorial debut with the critically acclaimed Lady Bird.
