visit the iFilm.com presentation
of "Monster."
Isolation, imagination,
fear and family
are the ingredients
for Jennifer Kent's
dark fantasy about
how a single mother
and her precocious
son find the courage
to protect each
other from a singularly
dreadful frightener.
Written and directed
by Jennifer Kent,
"Monster"
won the Audience
Favorite Award and
the Ellen Award
for distinctive
achievement at the
Aspen Shortfest
of 2005.
Ms Kent graduated
from Australia's
National Institute
of Dramatic Art
with a degree in
Performing Arts
in 1991.
Her nine minute
black &
white gem is
genuinely creepy,
frightening
and yet ultimately
endearing.
Susan Prior
as the weary
mother of a
hyperkinetic
little boy is
appropriately
maternal yet
undenyably sexy
in a totally
natural, believable
way. Luke Ikimis-Healy
as her son is
irresistible,
and the monster
is a perfect
mix of Brothers
Grimm and modern-day
horror.
We invite you
to to turn out
the lights,
get comfortable,
and enjoy Monster.
