From the beginning it's a sex comedy and then at the end it's a tragic heartbreaking human trafficking film. The producers didn't know which direction to take. Kevin Pinassi shines as Ben and Najarra Townsend is remarkable as Zelda. The movie's success is the astonishing performances of the two lead characters. The script is flawed by the misdirection of the film genre. I still don't know if it's a dark sex comedy or a psychological crime thriller. And why they chose to name the film 'Wolf Mother is another mishap'. The title sells the movie short and it's really not about Zelda -The Wolf Mother but Ben 'The Cop Killer'. Maybe perhaps' Cop Killer & Wolf Mother' would have worked!
The title of the film has to be a poetic one and that draws peoples curiosity to watching the movie.
I loved it though .It's intriguing and keeps on your toes the whole time. Also the dialogue is on point.

A little long winded for me, but that's just me. Some scenes could have been left out as they appeared to be time fillers. Having said that, at no time did I want to hit stop. I think the cast did a good job with what they had to work with. Even though he had a small part, Vescio was at his creepy best. Visually it was quite good. A lot of the locations worked a treat and helped make the casts job a little easier. I watch it via Google Play & didn't feel cheated at having to pay $5.99 to rent. I gave it a solid 5.

How do I compare...etc.
it's an indie movie that displays a lot of potential in the 1st half and seems to lose its steam due to reasons that have nothing to do with the team that delivered the tale till then. the actors are great and it's obvious that they were working with a difficult narrative right from the start but they managed to deliver so well that the sudden crash in in direction is overwhelming.
still, it's worth watching. there's good chemistry between the lead actors, and they are good actors, entirely believable in their roles.
it's indie and lacking a completely structured narrative but it's worth watching, especially just to make notes about how not to waste a good start.

If you have no experience in what Carlson has to say: just stay away
It is all about darkness and another world that doesn"t exist.
Thank you Mr. P Carlson

In the interests of full disclosure, I concede that I never made it to the end of the movie - but I saw enough to decide to submit my review in order to help those folks who might be thinking "I'll give it a go, nothing much else to do"! Please don't. Like many other film buffs, I am tired of false rating submitted by those who clearly have a vested interest in these films - they don't fool anyone, and are a constant irritant to genuine movie lovers who want to know if a feature is any good. Bad acting, predictable script, formulaic plot - dreadful film, please ignore it and do something more productive with your time.

Excellent film with interesting characters. Two bad people--each with their own misdeeds--try to do something good in their lives by searching for a missing child. When that missing child reappears without their help, they are at a loss of what to do except go after the people responsible for kidnapping the child. A surprise ending you won't see coming. Highly recommend this movie.

I loved the performances by Pinassi, and Townsend. Not everyone will like this movie, but if you like excitingly daring films, you will love this one. The soundtrack is amazing, all songs are just the perfect choice. I enjoyed every minute of the movie and I could watch over and over. Sadly it's not yet released. I don't want to say too much about the film because there are no words to describe what I felt when I watched it, it is an experience you have to see for yourself. I really admire Carlson's imagination, how could he think about writing such a weird and incredible story? I watched his last film Toy Soldiers, but yet to see his first one. A true talent.

Erik Peter Carlson directed/wrote another masterpiece in my opinion. Erik knows how to tackle real and dark themes in a way not too many film makers can. Similar to Erik's work in The Toy Soldiers, WOLF MOTHER delivers what it set out to do. Najarra Townsend put on a fantastic performance that'll be appreciated for years to come. Kevin Pinassi is a likable and relatable character from beginning to end. This movie is about redemption and I loved it. Anything Erik Peter Carlson or Najarra Townsend do from here on out.. Im 100% on board. If you like a well written drama that is not afraid to dig into some slightly uncomfortable themes and moments in a way that makes total sense. WATCH THIS MOVIE!
