A 15-year-old misfit runs away from her hometown in search of the gutter punk who stole her father's ashes.

Brad Wheeler

Globe and Mail

The action is erratic and unlikely. But if too many things just don't ring true, the genuineness of actress Hickson is never in question.

Rated: 1.5/4

Father Son Holy Gore

A powerful look at some of the more contemporary problems thriving right under the noses of so many people in lots of small Newfoundland communities.

Rated: 4/5

Georgia Straight

Both charming and abrasive, [Taylor] Hickson expertly navigates the movie's scenes of illegal drug use and sexual assault, never once overshadowed by the excellent supporting cast of colourful degenerates.

Chris Knight

National Post

The film doesn't sugarcoat the culture, but Blue knows there's an appeal there as well - it offers friendship, art and a playful sense of community, but also violence and the constant threat of substance abuse.

Winnipeg Free Press

Hunting Pignut wants to embrace rebellion and the fringe, but it ends up playing by the rules.

Rated: 2/5
