Pighead

About This Movie

So, 'Pighead' is this quirky little film by Adam Torhjelm that juggles comedy and drama in a way that's pretty engaging. You’ve got these two friends trying to make a film, and it starts off with this charming vibe, all enthusiasm and dreams. But as they dive deeper into their project, the cracks in their friendship begin to show, and it gets messy—kind of like a DIY project gone wrong. The pacing has this natural ebb and flow, mirroring their escalating frustrations. The performances are sincere, but it's the practical effects that really stand out; they add an authentic texture to the chaos. It’s distinct in how it captures that balance of passion and the strain it can put on relationships. Definitely a unique take on the filmmaking journey.
