I tend to respond to a lot of indie horror films and I thought this one was fantastic. It seemed to be as horrific as it was thoughtful, as there was a lot more at play than one might traditionally think. It's as much a character study about a truly disturbed man as it is a frightening exercise in horror filmmaking. I definitely agree that it might run a little *too* long but overall I really loved this film. And THAT ENDING!

STRAWBERRY FLAVORED PLASTIC is a great directorial debut. Reminds me of MAN BITES DOG with a modern touch. This film's pacing is a slow burn so keep that in mind before you watch it. However, the themes and questions posed within the movie are intriguing and well-explored at this level of filmmaking. Looking forward to see what kind of story the director can tell next.

This was very well made movie. The writting was excellent as the acting and cinematography. I get some people may not like it. It is slow burn... After watching the clove hitchkiller yesterday. In a way this reminded me of it. You don't have to have gory violence or these over top Special effects to be good .You need a good set of people around that make it work. Take it for what it worth compared to many Crappy movie's being made these days. At least i can imagine a real person being like that. And that's the scary part....

I forced myself to sit through an hour of this before giving up. 90% of what I saw was people sitting around talking in stilted sentences that sounded like someone wrote them. People don't talk this way. It drags and it lags. There's an aura of hubris around this film, the kind one might expect from a naïve beginning director. Despite claims, there's nothing sensational about this snoozer.

A fun horror movie experience filled twists and turns Noal was a fun character and going into his wild mind was one hell of a ride to watch this fantastic horror movie

I have to disagree with anyone who has given this film a negative review. The acting perfectly represents how anyone would imagine interacting with a serial killer is like. For a while there I was even afraid it wasn't fiction as the dialogue and overall filming was very realistic. This film is perfect for anyone who loves a good psychological thriller. It definitely has some very graphic and scary scenes, but I wouldn't expect any less based on the subject matter. Long story short, it is worth watching!

Once the opening sequence began, I was hooked. Slowly and surely, as the film progresses, the story gathers its concept that is unique and highly refreshing. The found-footage/mockumentary concept can either pull you right in or push you out. It's not an easy approach but it is cleverly done in order for the audience to go along the journey finding out the twists, shocks, and momentary reliefs (before it comes back to shock you again). Noel's journey as a highly intelligent and articulated serial killer, one have to ask themselves, is this person insane for the sake of it or just plain insane. The film unravels these questions carefully to learn his motives. Additionally, Errol and Ellis' filmmaking motives is just as dangerous as Noel. Willing to learn and discover the hidden secrets as they collect Noel's footage. The attempts of doing so can result with serious consequences. Colin Bemis' creative take with a ultra low budget with a small crew is surprisingly feasible with great effort. The choices of camera footage from Skype videos to GoPro cameras add a particular modern touch. It was not supposed to look at its finest high quality but rather a conceptual one. Aiden Bristow carried a tremendous weight to make the role exceptional and uncomfortably charming. The duo, Nicholas Urda and Andres Montego, equally gave a interesting take of filmmakers who dared to collaborate with a serial killer unknowing the results. All in all, with certain philosophical discussions between the characters, the shock values of the crime scenes, & the twists and turns of the serial killer's attempt; it felt like a strange ride.

Strawberry Flavored Plastic is unique. It's a micro-budget film with an unknown cast. It's part found footage, part mockumentary. All of that only helps the film. It makes it feel real. It sells the scary, though I wouldn't really call it a horror film. At least not just a horror film. I'd label it as a horror/thriller/drama. Most of all, it's a character study. The main character is both the hero and the villain (emphasis on villain). I mean, he disposes of a body in the opening... His journey makes the film stand out. You follow him throughout as he says and does these horrific things, but little by little you become unsure whether or not you should root for him. Without spoiling the ending, you'll wrestle with that feeling until the very last second.

This is a ride that is like no other, where we get a unique intimate perspective inside the life of a serial killer. Noel's life is the center of what can be seen from a documentary-style perspective that is shot beautifully and made to feel like you're with him moment to moment. Truly, no film is quite like this one, with ultimate suspense satisfaction. If you haven't seen this yet, I'm not really sure what you've been doing with your free time. I can't recommend it enough!!!

I decided to watch Strawberry Flavored Plastic after seeing the great reviews on Bloody Disgusting and the Hollywood Reporter and loved it. It's a new spin on the usual serial killer movie, told more from the perspective of the killer himself. Very intelligently written and creepy as hell. Aiden Bristol is amazing in the lead role! Would definitely recommend.
