"Loren Cass" made its U.S. Premiere last weekend to a packed house at the CineVegas International Film Festival in the Jackpot Premieres section. Check out film critic Robert Koehler's "Loren Cass" review in Variety and stay tuned for more major festival screening engagements. Here's a quick excerpt from the review:  "A starkly radical film debut of uncommon power and artistic principle, Chris Fuller's "Loren Cass" announces a genuinely original filmmaking talent who literally pulls no punches in his depiction of teen angst and racial warfare on the streets of 1997 St. Petersburg, Fla. Suffused with pessimism and an overarching sense of the loneliness of modern American life, the pic affirms a vital alternative to the usual adolescent drama, making even Larry Clark look tame by comparison. Sure to be deemed commercially toxic, the pic deserves a brave distrib that knows how to work the angles. Major fest berths are a lock." --Robert Koehler, Variety "LOREN CASS", THE WORLD'S MOST DANGEROUS FILM... posted on 11 May 2007
