“McAbee’s incredibly engaging story, not to mention the beautiful black and white photography,
makes it just about the most fun you’ll have in the independent theater this year.”
- Jeremy Kirk, We are Movie Geeks
“Few films have me chuckling from beginning till end, but this one managed to do it.
Well, except when I was laughing. STINGRAY SAM is a cleverly made loving tribute to
the serials of old and a darn funny one too.”
- Ard Vijn, Twitch
“Either way you slice it, STINGRAY SAM is timeless… ‘timeless’ because
that’s what you’re supposed to call pieces of art that touch you.”
- Bob Doto, Quiet Earth
