Hey, did you know there’s a pandemic? Well, if you didn’t this film will remind you. As for me, I use movies as an escape, so confronting it through film felt, well, not like something I wanted to do. But I pushed on and watched this anyway.
As a virus spreads quickly throughout the world, Jason (Ian Stout) slowly comes to terms with the fact that his life of working in a restaurant and being a playwright at night may never come back. So as writer’s block sets in, he turns to online dating, where he meets a friend for the Apocalpyse in Sorrel (Tiffany Groben).
Jason’s family tries to reach him as well, to varying degrees of success, but until he starts dating Sorrel, he’s so self-obsessed that you may find yourself having difficulty relating to him.
Like I said, it was hard for me to get excited about a romcom set during the days of COVID-19, but you may feel differently. That said, making a film — much less during our uncertain times — is a real accomplishment.
Love in Dangerous Times is available on all major VOD platforms including iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, YouTube, and Vudu from Dark Star Pictures. You can learn more on the official Facebook page.
