Chimera Press and Reviews:

Phoenix Film Festival Review – Chimera

“A small intimate setting underscores the films greatest strength, the performances. Cusick (as Quint) is saddled with the task of being the audience’s entry into the story while spiraling further into a manic rage with each passing scene. Placed in the hands of a lesser actor the character could have been downright annoying. However, Cusick breathes humanity and pathos into every moment, creating a questionable but sympathetic individual that feels utterly real.”

Chimera Wins Top Awards In Boston & Phoenix, Announces More International Screenings.

“As an aficionado of intelligent science fiction myself, I am honored to be a part of Chimera.” says lead actor Henry Ian Cusick, who plays a conflicted scientist named Quint in the movie. “Maurice Haeems has created a beautifully harrowing and thought-provoking sci-fi film, unique and surprising in equal measures. It stays with you long after the credits roll.” he concludes.
