User review:
Deadly Intent is a nice suspense story. Things go bump in the night as you hope they will (or hope they won’t depending) and the family angle keeps you engaged throughout the film. I enjoyed the visual style of the film and the hard work the filmmakers put into it. The music helped set the tone early on and I always love when we’re fed story hints as it goes along.
Independent films always have some kind of limitation or another, but the director did a nice job crafting a rounded film. I look forward to seeing what they come up with next. It’s a good film to check out this Halloween season so grab some popcorn and curl up on the couch. Lights being off is optional.
