Reckoning
Fresh from his jail release, Clancy’s first stop is to visit his brother Tom, and his old flame, Cassie.
Clancy aims to reclaim his money, his relationship with Cassie and his former life; shattering secrets buried in dirt.
As the night spins out of control, a battle of wits ensues, rain and rage spiralling towards a fatal reckoning.
Some secrets can't be buried.
Everyone has secrets
Produced in 2012 and written by Tom Vogel, Reckoning was a departure from the comedy films we were making at the time. It was our first thriller and the first time directing somebody else's script. It was also the first time we would work with Clara Francesca (cast as Cassie) .
The script was solid — a deep dive into a world of utter rough and raw revenge. A thriller with a twist, the story of a family caught in betrayal, characters trapped within in crime system and the hauntings of the past they would rather forget, built on their own wicked nature.
Reckoning would go on to screen at multiple festivals and pick up Best Film at Comfy Shorts (2013) as well as a Gold Remi at Houston Worldfest (2014).
