Shallow Ground Review

Written by: deadmanwalkin

Shallow Ground is a film that looks and feels bigger than it really is - for being an Independent Film and what Sheldon Wilson (Director) and his crew was able to do was amazing.. kind of like the "Little Engine that Could," no matter what was thrown at them, they kept chugging along.

Even though I do applaud the effort of Sheldon and his team - in trying to bring something fresh to a sometimes-repetitive genre, but no matter how much I praise the work that was put into this film and no matter how much I really wanted to love Shallow Ground – it ended up being a film filled with one too many plot holes, as well as one with poor execution (of certain parts) of the story line. It ended up to much for me to overcome, so instead of loving this film, I only ended up liking Shallow Ground..

In Shallow Ground: A naked teenage boy covered in blood appears at a remote sheriff's station one year after the brutal unsolved murder of a local girl. Now sheriff Jack Shepherd, guilt ridden over the girl's murder must confront his own demons as he desperately searches for the boy's true identity and possible victims. Little does Jack realize that he had started down a path that will bring him face to face with an unthinkable horror. Before sunrise the living will pay for the pain the dead have suffered...
