MELTDOWN (2023)

Drama, Psychedelic Horror - 85 minutes

Impressive fear-fare. Chilling mystery. Aficionados of independent horror cinema should find plenty to intrigue them.
— Joseph Perry, Horror Fuel
Director Colton Van Til builds simmering tensions early in the story. With stunning visuals, this slow burn, psychedelic horror showcase should rise up your watchlist.
— Alan French, Sunshine State Cineplex

Meltdown combines the style of Douglas Sirk’s 1950s Hollywood melodramas with the energy of the New French Extremity movement, especially the work of Gaspar Noé

ABERDEEN (2019)

Drama - 90 minutes

Poster for the 2019 film "Aberdeen". It shows actress Isabel Bennet standing with a notebook in hand.
TERRIFIC, quite superior to other small, labor-of-love productions. Van Til has good command of his material, moving characters through scenes efficiently. The film introduces us to a storyteller unafraid to think outside of the box. And you can sense his enthusiasm behind the camera, percolating with every scene.
— Mike Ward, Seattle Film Critics Society President

Aberdeen had a US limited theatrical release in 2019 after being picked up by SPI INT. and SKY UK. The film is currently streaming in the US and UK on Amazon Prime.
