Matthew E. Chausse

Matthew E. Chausse? Oh, that dude’s got his fingerprints all over some wild stuff lately. First up, “Tornado” (2025) – trust me, this one’s not your average disaster flick. Think more unpredictable, less “let’s run from flying cows” and more of a mind game with nature itself. Chausse’s touch is all over the tension, building up those moments where you’re pretty sure the wind isn’t the only thing tearing stuff apart. The characters actually feel real for once, not just cardboard cutouts waiting for the next CGI storm to flatten their house. Then there’s “Harvest” (2024). This isn’t just a movie about people picking veggies, alright? It digs way deeper—family secrets, small-town drama, the kind of stuff that makes you question who you’d trust if your world started crumbling. Chausse knows how to make a field of corn look downright ominous, which is kind of impressive, honestly. The story worms its way under your skin, and before you know it, you’re invested in these characters who are just trying to survive—both the season and each other. And let’s not skip “The Mother and the Bear” (2024). This one’s got heart—a weird, gritty kind of heart, but it works. It’s about connection, loss, and maybe a little bit about finding peace where you least expect it. Chausse’s style has this knack for pulling raw emotion out of even the simplest scenes. He’s not just making movies; he’s messing with your head and heart at the same time.
