The Wildman of Shaggy Creek

Phenomenal storyline and top notch acting. The story is brought to life by talented actors and great direction - a must watch for the whole family! Wildman offers excitement, laughter, and a great "moral of the story"! The musical score is great as well. It's refreshing to have a movie that everyone can enjoy together, which seems fewer and far between these days! The script was perfectly written and executed in the same way!

I can't say enough about Scott (Hudson) and Hailey (Ayla) - what a great breakout role for them both! They appear as if they are seasoned actors and I can't wait to see them in other films.

The Wildman of Shaggy Creek is one of the best family films I've seen! There is something for everyone. A heartwarming family dynamic of navigating balance between a parent's career and a child's coming of age with challenges of living in a new ___location and making new friends.

The cast were all amazing! From the bravery of a young boy, Scott, played by Hudson Hensley, and a kind and quick witted young girl, Hayley, played by Ayla Bullington, to the humerous bully, Zach, played by Brycen Patterson, with his mischievous ways, taunting, and his comedic performance that illustrates his fear of losing his alpha status by a new kid on the block!

This movie is full of laughter, love, a few jump scares and just enough fear to create suspense without being too frightening!

I would give this movie a 10 out of 10 and recommend it for the whole family to see of all ages!!

From the acting to the editing to the set, the mics, the cameras, and lighting everything is so professional. Has a great story and message about family and bravery. Family friendly and enjoyable for all ages! The music keeps the audience on there feet and anticipating what's going to happen next. Such an entertaining and enjoyable movie, amazing amazing AMAZING! The writing and lines made my family and I laugh too! I left the theatre wanting more. The casting could not be more perfect and the acting from these young actors and the adult actors was just sooo good! Please make a sequel! This was such a good watch!

"The Wildman of Shaggy Creek" is the best children's fantasy movie I've seen in a long time. From the incredible directing, cinematography, and scoring, to the talented cast of kids, young adults, and industry professionals, this movie is bound to keep you engaged and entertained. The standout performances from the all kids are a major highlight. They move the story of the film from start to finish and keep the audience hanging on their every word with suspense, emotion, and humor. The entire cast displays great chemistry that is captured through the screen. The film is not only great for children but also adults as parents Charlotte (Allee Sutton-Hethcoat) and Charlie (Josh Futcher) showcase their incredible chemistry and acting abilities as they capture all the ups and downs of parenting young teens with exceptional emotion displayed by both in tense scenes as well as perfect comedic timing that create light-hearted scenes. The film is fast paced and never gets boring as characters like Scott (Hudson Hensley), Hailey (Ayla Bullington), Zach (Brycen Patterson), and others entrance the audience in a world of suspense, intrigue, fear, and comedy. The climax of the film is the best shot, acted, and written scene in any children's movie I've seen. The scene keeps the audience looming in fear and suspense, but without being too scary for the younger ones. The film is excellently crafted from start to finish and definitely a must watch for anyone looking for a heartwarming, scary, and entertaining film fun for the whole family!

My 8 year old absolutely loved it and so did I! It's really fun for the whole family, sweet and pretty funny too. There's some heart felt moments between the Mom played Allee-Sutton Hethcoat (who was also in the directors other film, The Stolen Valley and she crushed it in that movie too) and her son, Scott that I thought were done so well. The other ensemble of kids in the movie were hilarious together and are so talented. I was afraid at first it might be too scary for my son, but that wasn't the case at all. It kept you on the edge of your seat at parts, but never went into scary territory. Highly recommend this indie gem, don't sleep on The Wildman!
