REVIEWS
(PRINT / WEB)
McCoy, Jeff. (Fall 2005) Review of Shadows in the Garden. Micro-Film Magazine, No. 7. Quoted from review: “The filmmakers … dare to tell this story in a non-traditional manner, providing exposition through dictionary definitions, newspaper clippings, talk radio voices, and even a motivational speaker that seems to mirror Sylkk's inner thoughts. Balancing the literate ideas are various intriguing images representing Sylkk's fantasies and psychic visions, often mated together in complex visual compositions….”
Scifilm. Review of Shadows in the Garden. 2003.
“… a solid if simple story, artfully told, and polished until it shines. … It’s films like Wayne’s that made me fall in love with indy films in the first place.”
