The film is a modernist take on Oscar Wilde's Classic play, that deals with power lust and cruelty. The drunken boss, a scheming wife, an entitled daughter are all characters that translate well into modern times. Both Jessie Epstein and Zach Thomas give outstanding performances. As does Garret Murphy as the ill fated Syrian Guard.Director Austin Shell portrays St John the Baptist with chilling effect... Despite the supposed gaiety of the feast... somehow death permeates the atmosphere : the film borders on a horror movie
