Review: Chris Esper's "Steak Knives"


Took some time out to watch Chris Esper's latest short film called Steak Knives...

The comedy, penned by , follows John () whose life is threatened by his wife Katrine () when he gives her steak knives as a birthday gift.
 

I am afraid this one was just a bit off--While the premise is a good and had lots of potential-I was distracted by some dubbing issues here. The performances were solid. Esper is a very talented filmmaker who deserves attention...and is in fact getting some spending a few months in LA at  Odd Lot Entertainment--his trip wraps this week.

Have a look at "Steak Knives" anyway--issues aside you gotta admire any film that is dedicated to history's notorious Lizzie Borden.

Be sure to read my review of Esper's short films Still Life and "Always a Reason" as well as the interview I conducted with him in early January of this year.
