Under the Influence

About This Movie

Under the Influence offers a gritty look at the darker side of Los Angeles, wrapped in layers of murder and deceit. The film's pacing is deliberate, drawing you into Camilla Overbye Roos's compelling performance, which earned her an award at the NY Independent Film Festival. Peter Greene, with his raw presence, adds a layer of tension, reminding viewers of his memorable role in Pulp Fiction. The atmosphere is thick, almost palpable—the kind of film that lingers long after watching. It’s not just about the plot, but the characters’ morally gray decisions that make you think. If you appreciate indie films with a punchy script and solid performances, this one's worth exploring.

Under the Influence has seen limited releases over the years, making it somewhat of a hidden gem for collectors. The scarcity of physical formats, especially original DVD releases, adds to the intrigue. It's not the most mainstream title, so many collectors appreciate its unique narrative and character depth. The film's indie roots give it an authentic feel that resonates with those who favor offbeat cinema.
