I saw this film at a small screening in downtown London Ontario. There was only about a hundred people in the audience but the amount of enthusiasm they had for the film and its director/writer, Sean Stanley, was extraordinary. After the screening I talked to Sean Stanley, an upbeat and very proud man, as well as his Producer, Mark Potter, who is definitely the suit in this duo that is Rakehellrow Productions. There's a couple DVD's available from Rakehellrow, one being that of "Sheepshit" and the other being a compilation of shorts and skits that the London Ontario Canada based production company has produced over the past four years.

No FMJ, but dark comedy nonetheless.
There were a couple times where I, almost, peed myself laughing. Excellent wordplay and performances throughout. Professional attitude and undertaking with a nice little story to tell. There were a couple of plot points which could have been expanded upon a little more and shown, but it's never a bad thing leaving stuff to "the" vivid imagination. I think I've been to the bar where it was shot. All told, a tidy undertaking which is better than watching a syndicated rerun of Seinfeld.
Note quite: Chris Partlow, Bunny Colvin, Tommy Carcetti, Snoop, Dukie, Johnny Boy(the kid that played Telly in KIDS), Cool Lester Smooth, The Bunk, and McNulty; but hey, what is?
Real, yo.

You know how some people have trouble getting the "romance" back in their sex lives, so they put on their favorite erotic videotape/disc in their VHS and/or Laserdisc player during special times of the night? The problem is: perverts. You don't want to look like a pervert when you are getting intimate with your wife/significant other/stranger...
Well look no further people, because I have found the be-all, end-all answer to your relationship problems. Sheepshit. Just pop this baby in and be amazed at the wonderful talent that is Writer/Director Sean Stanley. Other than endlessly amuse me for 33 odd minutes, this film has brought back the much-needed spark into my past 33 odd relationships. Sometimes I just quit mid-thrust and find myself simply enjoying the comedic entertainment that is Sheepshit.
Do yourself a favor, do your significant other a favor, and watch Sheepshit. You need it more than you'll ever know...

Keep your eyes out for writer/director Sean Stanley. He is a young guy from Canada with tons of talent. I can't wait to see his next film. I wouldn't be surprised to see someone throw a pile of money at this kid to make a film for them. I really think this guy has the potential to make a hit movie. He is a little rough around the edges, but you can bet with time, he will hone his craft.
Sheepshit is the story of an April Fool's Day joke. Three guys figure a way to keep themselves from having to buy their buddy a birthday present. His birthday falls on April 1st, so they get together and decide his present will be the best April Fool's Day joke ever.
Well done.
