BITTER FEAST [2010]

TV's Mercy's James LeGros and The Blair Witch Project's Josh Leonard play the leads in acclaimed indie-director Joe Maggio's deliciously wicked thriller about a disgruntled chef taking his woes out on a nasty food critic.

Going into the film I was expecting a disgusting comedy of sorts but came out with something much different. It does have it's fair share of nasty humorous bits but for the most part it is deadly serious. If you're a chef, like myself, or any other sort of artist for that matter and had your work publicly insulted, then this one will hit home and leave a smile on your face.

It's not a perfect film but it's a viciously fun one that proves you can still make a good flick on a VERY limited budget.
