All of the exaggerated over the top nonsense reviews of this film made me laugh...These people must have worked on or know the people who were responsible for making this "thing" as i cant see any other reason for such high ratings.I made my account to do my very own honest and real reviews after reading so many idiotic reviews on terrible movies over and over on this site.Do not waste your time with this movie, the simplest and quickest way to sum it up in one word is (Rubbish)End of

I saw "Mothers Milk" last week via the SoCal film festival. I really knew nothing about it going in, as it was a part of a ticket package I bought. I decided last minute to watch it, as I had time to kill - and I am glad I made the move. The story is pretty disturbing. It's about a man named Claude who kidnaps women and traps them in his basement in order to fill his childhood fetish.The movie basically takes place in one room. I could see some people thinking the movie is a bit slow moving, but there is a big payoff. It's really all about the actor who plays Claude (Casey Chapman). This is a performance that could hold up with anything being buzzed about currently for awards this season. He takes a character that is so disturbing, so disgusting, and so unlikeable and makes him sympathetic. There are points in the movie where I caught myself disagreeing with his victim at points, which shocked me as a woman.Glad that I attend smaller festivals, as you can find hidden gems like this that are just as good (if not better) than what you will see in one of the bigger festivals in the US. I will keep my eye out for films from this writer and director (Edward Pionke) as well.

I was able to catch a screening of Mother's Milk recently and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. The subject matter seems rather dark. It revolves around a lonely man who has a dark fetish for breast milk who kidnaps women. Although that may sound off-putting, don't fear. This isn't your typical horror or torture film at all. In fact, I would say this is a love story. At its core its about two desperate people who find themselves forced to connect with one another. I saw that it was about to hit the festival circuit and I hope that more people will be able to view the film, as it could really be a hidden indie gem.The writer/director, Edward Pionke, really shows promise bringing a fresh and new type of film I hadn't seen before, and the cast was equally as strong. The two leads were fantastic as well (Casey Chapman and Mackenzie Wiglesworth). I would recommend this film to you if you enjoy character studies, and dark films. It can be rather slow moving, but I think that is intentional. Although it can take a while, I was pretty much hooked halfway through and wouldn't spoil the ending for you. So if you get a chance to see it, I say go.

I didn't know what expect when I entered this movie, the name alone alluded to something I don't want to think about. However, I was enthralled from the very first shot.GREAT performances, GREAT direction with a Hitchcock horror/suspense vibe. It stayed with me for days... even when I didn't want it to. I was lucky to catch this film at a private screening and I hope to god it gets distributed so more people can see this original piece, if you stumble across it check it out... you won't be disappointed.It's unbelievable and awe-inspiring that many of the cast and crew are new to the game, bravo to all.
