The Other Side

Sam has to rescue the woman he loves before Reapers drag him back to Hell
Samuel North (Nathan Mobley) is skipping his college graduation to get back to the woman he loves, Hanna Thompson (Jaimie Alexander). A cell phone conversation sets up a rendezvous at their favorite spot, but the meeting never takes place. One of Hanna's co-workers tells a little lie to get some jerk to leave her alone, and that sets the jerk on Hanna's trail. As for Sam, he begins the victim of a strange car accident and wakes up in a hospital bed, where he learns that Hanna is missing and that all those strange dreams he had while he was unconscious were memories of time he spent in Hell.

Good Indie Thriller
Though this definitely could have benefitted from a bigger budget, more experienced actors, and a little more polish on the editing and directing sides, this is a solid effort offering up some fun action and a clever storyline. Infused with some genuinely funny moments, an impressive score, and some startling violence, this is an action thriller that doubles as a mystery with a supernatural twist. In summary, an impressive little film, an interesting find, and I applaud everyone involved; they clearly put a lot of energy and artistry into this, and it pays off.

"The Other Side" is best indie movie I've ever seen!
Saw this movie "The Other Side" at the Waterfront Film Festival, and it was really really good. The movie has a cool premiese, and I enjoyed the roller coaster action thrills all the way to the end. The writer and director Gregg Bishop is an inspired young filmmaker and I'm looking forward to his next effort. This cast of newcomers was a real discovery, especially the leading man Nathan Mobley. He's sort of reminds me of Matt Damon in the first Bourne Identity movie. The beautiful Jaimie Alexander from "Kyle XY" is the leading lady. And Mobley's sidekick played by Cory Rouse stands out too as a wise cracking trouble maker. This one's definately worth seeing and buying for your collection.
