About Me

"Jim McMahon is clearly one of those filmmakers with obvious genre influences who has enough awareness and talent to craft something suitably unique and captivating... [the film] builds up to a gritty and taught finale - a race of keys against brute force, which had me on the edge of my seat at times."
Lee Bailes (Rumour Machine)
"I can heartily recommend this flick. It's dark, well written and relatively quickly paced. This is one shed worth visiting."
Andre Manseau (Arrow in the Head)
"...it's obvious that director Jim McMahon has talent and as a writer (the screenplay was co-written with Michael Victor Roy), he can capture the turn of a phrase in a compelling fashion... overall if you like indie horror you could do a lot worse than Bloodshed."
Staci Layne Wilson (About.Horror.com)
"...you're in for a hell of a time..."
AnthroFred (SlasherPool)
"'Bloodshed' really ends up being a horror film that functions less on gore and visuals and more on what you don't see. Much like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, there's a lot of brutal and mutilatory stuff afoot but much of it is offscreen. You get to see just enough of the grue to get the mind reeling."
Grand Guignol (B-Scared)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I find true value in those who have a burning passion to create great cinema, regardless of genre, so I'd like to meet anyone and everyone who shares this perspective.

Also I'd relish the opportunity to pick the brain of Danny Boyle.
