This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

One of my all time favorites.

"On the Horizon", a drama-thriller, the first feature film by writer/director/cinematographer Pascal Payant, is, quite simply, a triumph. The film is a joy to watch, with spectacularly beautiful scenery, fantastic soundtrack music, and interesting character development.Watching this movie, I felt as if I was taken on a journey--both emotional and physical-- by the cinematography and the music.The protagonist in "On the Horizon" is Casey, a handsome, motorcycle-riding photographer who enjoys the benefits of his good-looks and his suave charm that enables him to lure models to bed. At first glance, he appears to have it all. But, does he? Despite Casey's penchant for fast vehicles and wild women, he longs for intimacy with a woman who he can trust.These two opposing forces--the freedom to rise above the mundane and the desire to have someone trustworthy enough to share his life with--war within him. In this movie, the locations, the cinematography, the music, and the actors who inhabit this landscape, all combine to make "On the Horizon" a film that is unique and mesmerizing, memorable. Watching it, I could almost feel the heat rising from the screen. This film is a fantastic rumination on the nature of relationships. At the end of the day, we are left to conclude that human nature has no warning signs. Watch "On the Horizon". This movie will change the way you see the world.

Objectively and subjectively, this movie is outstanding! I can't say anything but good things about this film. For a film with such a low budget, the director did an amazing job combining a great storyline, ethereal scenery, and mesmerizing soundtracks. The framing of each scene, and development of characters were all very clever, and well executed..something you don't find much of these days. What I like most about the movie is that the director takes the universal theme of "love" and showcases it in a very real and raw way. Your sure to connect with one or more of the characters in some way. I am positive you'll enjoy this film! It'll have you feeling every emotion on the spectrum, and will leave you wanting more of Casey and Elissa! Enjoy!

I'll say that Pascal's directional debut is nothing short of stellar. It has a few issues in the first 30 minutes with weird arguments and slow pacing, but once the movie really gets going it finds its feet well and sneakily engages you. Casey is an enjoyable character to watch, even if he is a bit of a dick. It's thoroughly engrossing watching his relationship with Elissa evolve and change over time. From a technical standpoint the movie is rock solid, with a brilliant soundtrack and absolutely mesmerizing cinematography. The director was going for a moody and dreamy feel, and that's what he made. I think making a film with a low budget and simple hard work to find your success is very inspiring, and I'll be adding Pascal Payant alongside David Sandberg on my inspiring directors shortlist. Kung Fury and On the Horizion are polar opposite movies, but they are both a work of passion and devotion and I have the utmost respect for films born from that. In a nutshell I'll say that if you like Drive, you'll like On the Horizon, and I do suggest you give it a watch. It's not for everyone, but I found it thoroughly enjoyable and wonderful to look at.

They say that people can love so much it hurts. I believe this to be true and I believe that we have all, at one point or another, loved so much it hurts. Sometimes it is the hard relationships that have the biggest payout, whether it be in learning who we truly are or getting to be with our soul mate forever. On The Horizon is a beautiful film that puts a very difficult and hard relationship, and where those involved love so much it hurts, under a microscope. It is a film that all of us can relate to, because, we have all lived it at some point and time. The film uses a brilliant score and very aesthetic pleasing and breathtaking landscape to evoke emotion throughout the film. There is not a moment that goes by that one is not entranced in the relationship between Casey and Elissa. Their pain, love, and lust leap off the screen in a vivid way; and given that this film was low budget, that in of itself is a spectacular thing to see. Payant was able to capture the beauty of Utah and the stunning scenery of France all the while telling a story of loving so much it actually hurts. Tyler Johnson is magnificent as Casey, he allows the audience to not only see what is happening on screen, but more importantly, allowing us to feel what he is feeling. He takes the audience on the roller coaster that is his relationship with Elissa and how he lives so differently when he is with her vs. to without her. Sandy Leddin is fantastic in the role of Elissa. We both love and hate her and is what some might call a bitch; however, Leddin, easily allows the audience to see how much this character is actually hurting and how she is trying so hard to fight her true feelings for anyone or anything that she just continues the cycle of hurting herself and those that love her. Elissa is edgy, mysterious and frail; and Leddin does a fabulous job of navigating all those with ease. Notable mentions are Jessica Morris, who plays Amy, so fantastically that it hurts. What a great talent. Another notable mention is Kristen Kerr who plays Elissa's best friend. Kerr is perfection as Kate and I could not imagine anyone else playing this role. And the beautiful Jade Harlow who plays Christine so wonderfully that you may believe she just might be the one to ease Casey from his pain of loving someone so much it hurts, if only she is given the chance. Hats off to Payant who used his resources well, directed a beautiful film, and told a magnificent story of love and life. I highly recommend finding this film and watching it. You will not be let down.
