"It's the most fun I've had on a film set," said Hannah Fierman, producer and actor in the film. "It was really a dream team as far as the cast and crew. The script is reminiscent of classics as well as having its own very distinct voice."
Writer/director/actor Drew Fortier said, "I only ever find a purpose to do anything creative when things are organic and align properly; with that said, I have never been a part of something that has aligned more properly than Bunker Heights. The cast and crew of this thing are incredible and I am very proud of the fact that we created this film together from the ground up entirely in secret."
Fortier continues, "The film itself is very ambitious in scope and filled with so many memorable characters and incredible performances that will no doubt stick with people for a long time; it's pure unconditional entertainment.
