Reviews
“It’s another valuable piece of, lesser seen, world cinema from Cult Epics Blu-ray. I was very keen and we can absolutely recommend.” – DVD Beaver
“This is a nice showcase for Morris as a director as well, this being a larger production compared to her previous efforts A Question of Silence and Broken Mirrors, it’s solidly directed and the island setting is gorgeously shot by cinematographer Marc Felperlaan (Amsterdamned).” – McBastards Mausoleum
“The Last Island caps off a much-needed Blu-ray retrospective to give us a sense of what Norris made before her profound Antonia’s Line.” – Insidepulse
“Film programmers looking to showcase Dutch cinema in the 20th century or the work of Marleen Gorris in particular—especially her first three films—would find The Last Island to be an accessible introduction to this provocative filmmaker.” – Videolibrarian
“An adult version of Lord of the Flies” – Radio Times
“A superior screenplay, telling characterization and strong ensemble acting… Sharp direction by noted filmmaker Marleen Gorris helps expose the brutish realities that lie beneath the biscuit-thin veneer of what we like to think of as civilization.” – Radio Times
