Straight into Darkness

"When someone sees upwards of 400 movies a year, it's tough to find many that throw them for a total loop. Jeff Burr's 'Straight Into Darkness' starts out like a straight war flick, almost turns into a horror movie, slowly becomes a moving piece of drama, and spits you out on the other side both impressed with the end product...and more than a little shaken." -- efilmcritic.com

"...crisp cinematography and taut performances by all the actors – including a crew of true orphans from Romania – build up such atmosphere and tension that we can't run from it any more than its characters can." -- Austin Chronicle

"...(director Burr has) cultivated an artistry that distinguishes him from other filmmakers. (He) is able to lock an audience’s curiosity, undivided attention, and emotional involvement." -- Film Threat
