"Hair of the Dog" is a Brilliant Short Film about a Husband & Father who puts his own Demons & Indulgences ahead of his Family's Needs ! GLENN TURNEY does a Masterful Job as "John", the Brutal & Self-Obsessed Drunk who Blames All his Ills & Failures on Everybody but himself !

This short, but INTENSE film shows what sadly happens in many homes, and the damage that one man's addiction can cause. Losing his job, his family, and any hopes of redemption, John drinks himself into a hazy stupor of anger, sadness, and bad decisions.

This short film is an unapologetically gritty ride on the downward spiral of addiction. Glenn Turney does a masterful job of showing the blind denial of the hardcore addict.

Terry Wickham has amazed me time and time again. Over the past several years, I have had the opportunity to view many of this man's creations.

Hair of the Dog is absolutely fantastic. The only real problem I had with it was I wanted more than just the 45 minute run time.

I could go on a rant about how the above "review" is a shameless plug for the director... but I won't.
