ASH MOVIE REVIEW
Steven Wright once said “Right now I am having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before”. Now imagine this hilariously terrifying scenario in space, where no one can hear you reminisce! From musician and director Flying Lotus with a script written by Joni Remmler comes the SXSW Sci-Fi horror thriller sensation ASH. Riya (Eiza González) has no memories of the past couple of days but does remember her and a small crew were sent to a foreign planet to prepare the harsh alien terrain for a new colony of humans. Unable to access the logs and suffering from fuzzy memories of the gory deaths of her colleagues, Riya must put the pieces of her mind back together in order to solve the mystery of her mission’s purpose and find justice for her fallen friends. She meets a resident of the space station named Brion (Aaron Paul) who claims to know her but is also in the dark about what happened to the mission and what’s been unaliving the shipmates. Riya is reluctant to trust this mystery man and to be frank, he isn’t sure he can trust her. Bradly, Jordan, and Drew pierce the heavens to see the face of madness in Flying Lotus’ experimental mind trip with a far out score to accompany the space madness. It’s suspect or be suspected, remember the pain or forget the joy, kill or be killed… for science!
DIRECTED BY: Flying Lotus (Steven Ellison)
STARRING: Eiza González, Aaron Paul, Iko Uwais, Beulah Koale, Kate Elliott, Flying Lotus
YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)
Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.
Drew Tinnin (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Deliberations of Doom)
Drew Tinnin is a Rondo Award nominated interviewer and critic who has worked at SiriusXM’s Fangoria Radio and Fangoria magazine in NYC, as well as the London-based Dazed Digital. Currently a regular contributor to the Dread Central Network, he’s excited to join up with some old friends and other film fans on One of Us as a new contributor to Screener Squad.
