"Moscow Chill" is one of those 1 million dollar budget films that caught me by surprise when I screened it at a packed house at the Fine Arts Theatre in Beverly Hills last year.
As I noted at the time in my review, Hollywood "suits" should sit up and take notice - after all - Director Chris Solimine performed miracles with the pittance he had at his disposal.
The cinematography is superb, the production values are rich, the script is well-written, and the motley cast (who trekked off to Russian for the stunning location shots) act superbly in this entertaining espionage feature which hits the right spot.
For a sneak peak at my movie review:

The word from Solimine's straight-shooting hip is that "Moscow Chill" is being released on DVD on April 21st (2009).
Snap up a copy (it may become a collector's item) if only to give a boost to a dynamite Independent Film crew who froze their bu**s off overseas to turn out this multi-faceted gem.
In the alternative, ferret out a copy to screen privately in your private boudoir, so you can fantasize in-between the sheets over sexy lead actor Norman Reedus (Boondog Saints).
You heard it here first, folks, Reedus is the next heart-throb on the horizon to soar to new career heights in Tinsel Town!
