'Wamego Strikes Back' comes out Aug 1st


Here's the advance reviews.

“Hell, pure hell... It’s a fun ride... a fast paced and interesting doc... insight on the hard truths...”
Jeremy Knox , Film Threat

“Engaging, funny and painful... much more ‘open’ than the previous chapter.”
Adam Barnick, E-Insiders

“Another interesting subject for a documentary would be about how the film industry is elitist, disorganised and has no capacity for nurturing real talent, that it is a monolithic and archaic machine where its executives are too afraid to take risks, an industry that makes the music industry look as ruthlessly effective as Chairman Mao's Red Army. And whaddayaknow, someone made it...”
Jeremy Allen, PlayLouder

“A story rarely told (with) an overwhelming sense of ruthless honesty. This is an even more interesting, important and essential film than its predecessor.”
MJ Simpson, UK

“A must-see for any filmmaker. It's not the happiest, but it might be one of the most informative films about DIY filmmaking you'll ever see.”
Brian Harris, Independent Filmmaker's Coalition

“It's not a revenge flick slandering those who have slighted, but a mature look at creativity versus big business.”
Jim Jacka, Impose Magazine

“An entertaining sequel... You get to see things that aren't normally talked about, such as the inner-workings of dealing with distribution companies… Those who enjoyed the first film will also enjoy this. Both films are essential viewing by indie/lo-budget filmmakers.”
Robert Hubbard, Micro-Film
