Cayne McKenzie

Cayne McKenzie’s filmography is kinda wild when you take a closer look. Violent (2014)—yeah, that one’s a trip. It’s this dreamy, almost hallucinatory piece where you’re basically dropped into the mind of a young woman as she wrestles with the memories of her past. The vibe is super atmospheric, you know? Sparse dialogue, gorgeous visuals, and a soundtrack that just sort of seeps into your bones. It’s not your standard story arc, more like floating through someone else’s nostalgia and regrets. Then there’s A Brony Tale (also 2014), which flips the script completely. Forget the heavy, introspective stuff, and jump into the world of adult My Little Pony fans. It’s a doc that doesn’t poke fun so much as it tries to figure out what the heck draws grown men and women into this pastel universe. Pretty fascinating, honestly. You get interviews, a lot of genuine emotion, and a whole bunch of questions about fandom and acceptance. It’s weirdly sweet. Ash (2019) is a whole different beast. Set against the backdrop of a small town, the story spirals around a journalist caught in the aftermath of a wildfire. We’re talking guilt, secrets, and the unraveling of someone who’s basically drowning in their own mistakes. The mood’s tense, the stakes feel real, and you can practically smell the smoke through the screen. Cayne McKenzie’s name keeps popping up in projects that aren’t afraid to dig into the messy, complicated corners of life. Not a bad track record, honestly.
