The Last Stop in Yuma County Review: A Chaotic Western Crime Thriller
There’s a trend brewing in Hollywood these days among promising indie filmmakers. Actually, it’s been happening for decades, come to think of it, but two recent examples are worthy of note due to their sort of parallel journeys. First came actor-turned-filmmaker Zach Cregger, whose hit film Barbarian paved the way for a reportedly outrageous bidding war for his next project, an ensemble feature called Weapons. More recently, indie filmmaker Francis Galluppi, in his feature film directing debut, has been turning heads with his deliciously tense thriller The Last Stop in Yuma County, which has finally hit the masses this week. Its success thus far has surely led to his helming of an upcoming high-profile film installment in the timeless Evil Dead franchise.
