Quinkin (Critique)

In Aboriginal legend, the time of creation is known as the Dreamtime. It was a sacred and mystical era in which spirits created the world. One of those spirits – still feared by modern-day Aborigines – was known as the Quinkin. The Quinkin had two distinct beings: one was described as being long and whip thin with a rounded head that had spikes coming out of it. This being lives in cracks in rocks and is good-natured. The other being is evil in nature – big and fat, and known for any and all kind of mischief and bad deeds. Some Aborigines are afraid to even pronounce the name of this spirit for fear of its power.

Dig (Critique)

David (Aaron Himelstein) appears to be an average college student in 1962. He spends most of his waking hours debating philosophy with his friends in a local coffee shop and questioning how morality is subject to perspective. However, one day, as David is chatting with Marie (Tiffany Brouwer) and a few of his collegiate friends about Nietsche, his theory of the ubermensche (“superman” or “overman”), and how his viewpoints can justify many of the most horrific acts between human beings, the discussion goes from abstract to personal for David when a man from his past walks into the shop. Upon seeing the man, David knows he has no choice but to do something he’s never done before. What this is, why he feels this compulsion, and how he intends to carry it out is what makes Dig such a powerful film. Read the rest of this story…
