1230 Hopewell Road (2022)
1230 Hopewell Road centers around two investigate journalist who set out to make a documentary of a local urban legend and a troubled boyfriend at the deadly center of it all. Rob Gabe is the director of films such as RETURN HAUNED (2021) & MARA'S LABYRINTH (2021) as well as art videos like VIXEN. Director Statement: 1230 HOPEWELL ROAD is very much inspired by kink/fetish industrial subcultures, film such as Shinya Tsukamoto’s Tetsuo The Iron Man (1988), analogue aesthetics, and Urban Legends I grew up with as a teenager in Chester County, Pennsylvania. It’s pretty edgelord-y and tampers with dork sided subjects so don’t watch it with Mama-San in the room.

Fantastic!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
