"It doesn't seem too bold to say HALF-COCKED is an EASY RIDER for the '90s and deserves as much attention." (Alternative Press)
"Still as good as the music is the cinematography and smart camera placement - together Hawley and Galinsky know how to make pictures shudder with feeling."(LA Weekly)
"It was very inspiring to see such an accurate portrayal of indie hipster life. I'm still dumfounded by its clarity and impressed anyone my age could make a film that good..." (Kathy Malloy, Snipehunt)
Wildly hailed as one of the few genuinely honest portrayals of the Indie music scene, HALF-COCKED is the tale of a lost and directionless Louisville teen (Tara Jane O'Neil of RODAN) who spontaneously decides to steal the band van (and all the instruments) of her pretentious brother (Ian Svenonius of NATION OF ULYSSES and MAKE-UP, playing himself to perfection) and hit the road with a clutch of her friends in tow who are equally as lackadaisical. Penniless and on the road, they decide to call themselves TRUCKSTOP and form a fake "art-rock" band to make money. Their plan works, because no one can tell the difference between art rock and musical ineptitude. Featuring a cast of members from real bands including RUBY FALLS, RODAN, THE GRIFTERS, CRAIN, Catherine Ann Irwin of FREAKWATER and more.
