A renowned journalist from the LA Times, who returns to his hometown of The Dunes and while he's there, a mysterious figure from his past arises and threatens his entire existence.

The Dunes is more contemplative than what its premise calls for. Copping’s decision to make two films into one is clever, as it proves his ability to do drama and also works as a backdrop for a compelling personal journey.

Rated: 4/5

A great indy crime thriller brought together by an intriguing plot and wonderful acting performances by Copping and Phillips. The Dunes also shows that Copping is a director to watch.

Rated: 3.5/5

The Dunes is a totally ominous Thriller, creepy and intriguing enough to keep the mystery going strong until its very shocking end, even though the path offered to take us there may not be free of a few mishaps.

Rated: 6/10

Although it's a slow-paced film, it kept me on edge the entire time, and I couldn’t look away. It’s hard to capture just how good this movie is without giving too much away, but if you're even slightly interested, I highly recommend watching The Dunes.

The Dunes is a masterfully crafted movie, pulling you into the world of Nicholas Rice... he is as normal as you and me. Still, you feel every moment of anticipation and anxiety in this psychological thriller where the actors do the hardest acting of all, not being a superhero but an everyday person thrust into the midst of angst at its most extreme mental points. I would and will watch it again!!!
