This is literally one of the best independent movies I’ve ever seen and it’s well worth it!

"It’s always fun to see McDowell play a bad guy, but in “The Employer” he’s even more dementedly charming than usual." "Merle has created a film that is modern, violent and full of nasty twists, “The Employer” grabs you and won’t let you go."
