It is very hard to say something negative about "Surprise Divorce", because it combines social issues that we are dealing with daily, put in a very natural yet dramatic form. We really believe that this script needs to be put on film as soon as possible, and we are eager to see it in our festival as soon as it gets out.
Well...wow. It's a stunning film. You've weaved a vibrancy of colors which border on something like a scene from Willy Wonka with a darkness of mind that was simultaneously hilarious and disturbing.
...Round of applause from everyone at the 13horror.com office! You made the daytime scary.
For drama lovers, this movie would be perfect.
... it is ideal for avid spectators of drama...
