A hunter returns home to North Carolina with a mysterious green case. Following the death of his mother, he moves back into the family home where his mind begins to disintegrate. Stalked by divine voices and unholy visions, guided by disquiet, his mother's hand written riddles and strange visitors further complicate an already splintering mind. A cable man, a mummified cat, zealous neighbors, and a killer swirl through this darkly comic southern gumbo.

Tony Asankomah GhMovieFreak I can only describe “Gunfighter Paradise” as an ambitious film that struggles under the weight of its complexity. Rated: 5/10 Aug 2, 2024 Full Review Ronak Kotecha ReviewRon This flick bravely goes off the beaten track to produce something relatively unique Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 8, 2024 Full Review Victor Pineyro Seventh Art Studio Pulling from Paul Schrader's characters in "Taxi Driver" and "First Reformed", "Gunfighter Paradise" allows itself in its best moments to include some dark comedy to its exploration of solitude. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 May 31, 2024 Full Review Morgan Rojas Cinemacy Filmmaker Jethro Waters nearly does it all in Gunfighter Paradise, an equally beautiful and disturbing portrait of spiritual insanity. May 17, 2024 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com If Beasts of the Southern Wild had a cinematic child with Alex Garland's Civil War, I'd like to think that child would look something like the unique and extraordinary Gunfighter Paradise. Rated: 3.5/4.0 May 17, 2024 Full Review Kenneth R. Morefield 1More Film Blog I’m not here to trash any artist who has enough of a vision to get a film made. I just can’t praise a film that I don’t understand. Rated: 1/4 May 15, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
