Film Festivals, Awards and Screenings

"Primevil is well structured-the creative artistry in the fusion of the story elements to tell a primitive and evolutional struggle to survive, is well executed in the imagery and sound track. This film is truly an example of independent filmmaking talent at its best, meaning, it has the look and style of a film with high production value." -Grace Peters, Terror Film Festival
