If you want a glimpse of the contemporary, raw, rural South you need to pick up the film Seven Signs. It’s the directorial debut for the Th’ Legendary Shack Shakers front man J.D. Wilkes, in collaboration with the Lexington, Kentucky based independent production company JuddFilms, the film offers a document of the eccentricities, traditions, myths and superstitions of some of the most marginalized ares in America. Think Deliverance meets Errol Morris. Makes a great stocking stuffer for your snotty, urbane cousin.
