GIRL FROM NOWHERE 2018 (TUBI)

An amazing effort that gets nothing but bad reviews.

I say amazing because it was shot for $22,000 dollars in 13 days with a crew of six people, but the post production work took 3 years!! Yep, I know all about micro filmmaking.

A couple, Katherine (Tamryn Speirs, and Hugh (Scot Cooper) travel to their isolated vacation area in South Africa. Along the way they pick up a gorgeous hitchhiker named Liza (Christia Visser).

Katherine invites her to stay with them at the house and after the car breaks down, Liza agrees. Everything seems ok except Hugh seems a little more interested in Liza than he should.

Liza manages to seduce both of them at separate times and their relationship starts to fall apart. Liza is very vague about where she came from or where she is going, but everything comes down to a climax that is very downbeat.

This isn't too bad of a film and it moves quickly. Visser is simply gorgeous and one can understand why Hugh feels like he does. There are several "modern day" references to aspects of life that I totally disagree with, but hey, it's only a movie and these 2018 feelings have no impact on the film as a whole anyway.

If you get a chance you will want to check this out.
