There's something special about seeing some unknown talent, knock it out of the park...On this special episode we are diving into a little slice of indie cinema gold that is in theatres (in the US) and on VOD across North America.  It's time for 'Head Count'.In the style of Blood Simple meets Memento, the upcoming feature film pits an escaped convict against a set of improbable scenarios and a cast of wild characters on his journey of violence, love, and redemption. While it does borrow from a lot of its influences there is something special when you get to see a movie that is so self-assured and that's what 'Head Count' is, from it's writing and directing team of Ben and Jacob Burghart all the way down to it's leading man; Aaron Jakubenko.We had the unique pleasure of talking with Aaron about how he got the job, being with several other Aussie actors shooting an independent film in Kansas and so very much more....'Head Count' is in limited theatrical release in the US and on VOD platforms everywhere now.
