“STAG” – A film by Alexandra Spieth [Movie Review]

Making movies is a business. And that business is a cutthroat endeavour, relying on its producers to make money appear where needed and for work to get done when that comes up short. For some, that means maxing out credit cards or submitting one’s self to scientific experimentation. For others, it means taking advantage of a global pandemic to film a microbudget horror comedy in the woods. And that’s how writer/director Alexandra Spieth played it for Stag, her latest feature-length film. She recently wrote, directed, and starred in another horror comedy, 86’d. And this was after starring in and creating four seasons of her own web series called [Blank] My Life. So it makes sense given that level of output to get stuck back into the indie film scene despite the less-than-ideal circumstances...
