I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

You won't be disappointed!

So much average

Sadly Over-hyped

I witnessed this thing go from script to screen and I dreaded seeing it, only because half of the cast and all of the crew were from the local Houston film scene and a bunch of drama monkeys. But it took me several years to finally watch this 'bird that couldn't fly' and there was just so much 'junk' in the film that I was a little surprised I made it through to the end; it has it all, bad acting, bad lighting, bad sound, bad editing, bad this and that, and some terrible performances from actors that I know are far more talented than their performances in this awful, awful film. Somewhere it was boasted as almost being a "million dollar production" and I couldn't comprehend it then and certainly not now. I've had some slow Mondays and I am sure that I played it through several of them just to get through it. But if this is 'Houston's best', then Houston dashed it's dream on the wrong director/writer/editor...However, I will give kudos to the music, it was about the only thing that was original and paid for. There's no way they could have screwed that up.

I screened Jacob last night in the awesome Vineland-NJ, based Landis Theater. Jacob was shown, with its director present, as part of a 1-day Horror Movie screening-fest.I was glad that I got to see one full-length movie among the shorts, most of which were not that great.Jacob captured my interest from the first minute. The story takes place in a bleak southern town, likely somewhere in Texas. I'm wary of inadvertently providing "spoilers," so I won't provide plot points. Rather, I will talk about the quality of the film: Jacob provides a great story, great acting, great direction, and an outstanding mood is set.There are a couple of known actors, but every single individual in this film makes a bright contribution with their acting. The film is the brain child of director and lead actor Larry Wade Carrell, who after the screening chatted with audience members. This guy is the real deal. Frankly, he strikes me as dead ringer for Billy Bob Thornton. He looks like him, acts like him, and writes like him. He is a skill movie-maker.I thoroughly enjoyed Jacob. I'm not sure where this independent gem goes from here, but I think it would be successful on the big screen -- or, at a minimum, distributed in wide release on DVD/Blu Ray.Thanks, Larry, for making the horror movie event worthwhile.

I do not write reviews or rate movies generally, but my family saw this at Texas Frightmare and the director said during the Q&A after the film to rate it here if we liked it, so, this is my first and here goes. I liked the movie overall. It was another slasher film like many before it. Nothing new, but it was entertaining. The kills were effective and I enjoyed most of the movie. The little girl actress Grace Powell did a really fine job. Without saying too much here, she really had a few people in tears. I didn't like that we were expecting to see Michael Biehn, James Hampton, and Parrish Randall more and they were not in the movie enough. We've been big fans of Michael Biehn for years. James Hampton we've loved since forever. He is a solid actor who is also a nice guy that we've met before at the convention. Parrish Randall is the guy to have in a Texas horror film and he is another really solid actor. This is my only issue with the movie. Maybe those actors could not do more time in the film. The scenes they had were really good and just made me wish there was more of those guys. Some of the other acting was kind of just okay and what you will see in this kind of film more times than not. I liked that there was not a lot of profanity and nudity in the film. My son is 12 and likes horror films but sometimes the language and sex in a film make it a tough call for parents, so it was good to see a horror film that he could watch without me or his mom having to have concerns there. The Jacob character was really a good one for this kind of horror movie though. He had that larger than life force and power that a killer in this type of movie should have and he was more than scary enough. Overall, yes it was another slasher film, could have been better, but it was still fun to see. I give Jacob a 5 for what it did bring though and I am glad they showed it at the convention.

When we were seated for the Movie the Producer/Writer got up, to introduce the movie and to let everyone know that it was still a work in progress. After viewing I was riveted, it was a hang on ride.. I was relived that a movie filmed completely in Texas, and with such a small budget had the effect and the drama, It represented what could truly be done here in Texas. If you have to see one movie and don't mind the gore then you need to experience this emotional thrill ride. I can't wait to see what Odessy has up their sleeves next... Congrats to Larry Carrell for a fabulously written and unique experience, that I will remember for a very long time to come.....
