What the Press Has To Say About Mr. Morrison:
Directing:
The Hollywood Reporter
Writer-director Christopher Morrison is ingenious. Reid gives a superb performance.
–Stephen Farber, (The Bellwether)
LA Times
Teems with so many ideas. A powerful and wide-ranging lead performance from Alex Reid.
–Noel Murray, (The Bellwether)
Crypticrock.com
This is a fully unique experience as far as films go… the film has a deeply-embedded and unwavering strength. Reid is superb.
–Jeannie Blue, (The Bellwether)
Horrorfuel.com
The Bellwether is a damn fine fright flick; the message it conveys is timely and important, it’s got a killer aesthetic, and the performance by Reid is not to be missed… plus it’s full of tension and menace.
–Daniel XII, (The Bellwether)
Cinemainmind.com
Reid is a British actress and Morrison developed the concept of the film well before the events of the Me Too and Time’s Up movements, yet it is as timely and relevant as if it were conceived as a mascot movie for the movements.
–Tim Cogshell, (The Bellwether)
Makes ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ look like ‘Melrose Place’. My worst feminist nightmare come to horrifying life. I had to pause the film to take a Plan B.
–Amanda Duarte, creator/host of “Dead Darlings” and co-creator of “Pussy Grabs Back”, (The Bellwether)
