About This Movie

Sunsplit, directed by Peter Daskaloff, is this atmospheric blend of drama and thriller set against a sun-soaked L.A. backdrop. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build as we dive into the lives of Lyle, a psychotic killer, and Tess, a savvy car thief trying to navigate her complicated existence as a single mother. The performances are raw, especially the unsettling intensity that the actor playing Lyle brings—there’s something about that fixation on Tess that's both haunting and strangely compelling. The practical effects, while not the film's focus, add a gritty realism. You really feel the heat of the California sun and the weight of their fateful collision. It’s a quiet yet unnerving exploration of obsession and survival.
