“Watching Ganja & Hess is like listening to an expertly conducted orchestra. Gunn pulls from the distinct talents of each member of his ensemble and across arthouse, horror, blaxploitation and beyond to create a unique sensibility that is heart-stoppingly gorgeous.” ~ Leila Latif, BBC

“Something about the ‘voice’ of the film – its editing, camerawork, and point of view – tells you this experience will be different from any other you’ve ever had in a movie theatre. The film has a vitality that seems to broadcast itself; even slouching in the last row of the balcony, you can’t help but feel the electricity of this hauntingly mysterious film” ~ James Monaco, The Village Voice
