Press Quotes

The first feature written and directed by Martin Koolhoven...reveals him as a skillful manipulator of disturbing visual images and a screenwriter adept at sustaining a mood of impending doom.

     —New York Times

A vision of suppressed fury, lust and violence below the surface of everyday life evokes a disturbing vision of upheaval and chaos under the cracked facade of normality.

     —New York Times

While Dutch helmer Martin Koolhoven might have conceived AmnesiA to be only or primarily a witty black comedy, his film does a lot more to impress. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

     —SVET ATANASOV, Blu-ray.com

Extremely well acted by the two leads, AmnesiA is an engaging chamber piece that adds some quirky humor to its Euro thriller trappings.

     —NATHANIEL THOMPSON, Mondo Digital

a stylish, brooding, and attractively lensed film that explores the dark underbelly of twin-siblings and the cost of the secrets they keep.

     —KEN KASTENHUBER, McBastard’s Mausoleum

Cult Epics shines the light on the captivating worlds of Martin Koolhaven with this two-disc Blu-ray release of films that have for far too long remained unseen in the States.
