If you’ve seen Tinsman Road, leaving an honest star rating & review really helps, especially considering how indie we are. Unfortunately the review bombing by people who didn’t even watch the film has begun. Fight apathy and cynicism with honesty. Out now on Amazon and Apple 🍎

Tinsman Road took me out (complimentary). Very unfortunately relatable (I’m sure it will be for many people dealing with grief), but it made me feel less alone, I think. Incredibly intensely creepy ending stretch, really amazing. This movie will always be special to me. 🖤🖤

A naturalistic lo-fi ghost story about how grief can consume survivors of a tragedy, and how we struggle to impose a narrative on something senseless in hopes of shaping its incoherence. Banfitch and his mother have an honest natural chemistry as they grapple with the enormity of their situation.

Something I think about a lot is the line from Crimson Peak: “It’s not a ghost story, it’s a story with ghosts.” Great way to describe this movie. Fall Set northeastern lofi found footage that’s Haunting, beautiful and eerie as hell. So glad more people get to see this now.

Tinsman Road is another banger from Banfitch that is 110% worth the price of admission. Lots of emotion and scares but this time with a back-to-basics approach to found footage that I wish we saw more of in the 2020s. Watch it now while you can!

This and his latest 'Tinsman Road' - damn. Banfitch has a knack for something beyond cosmic horror. He's a master of semi-autobiographical truth, interpreting personal feelings and experiences into shock and awe. See his films on the big screen, if you can.

Robbie Banfitch’s Tinsman Road is a starkly different, yet compelling, follow-up to The Outwaters. This found-footage film eschews cosmic horror for a deeply personal, grounded exploration of grief and mystery. It’s an intimate character study driven by authentic performances. Full review is below!

Part of why @robbiebanfitch.bsky.social’s TINSMAN ROAD works so well, and has only grown in my mind ever since I saw it, is its utter lack of pretense. It manages to feel unrehearsed, unscripted, unstructured. Almost banal. You forget it’s fake. That’s hard to pull off. Tropes, meanwhile, are easy.
