Just like the process of taking any good photograph, it takes a while for writer-director Joshua Erkmans feature debut A Desert to frame everything just right so that its full striking vision can be felt. This may take a bit of arranging, including moments where the often refreshingly patient horror film retraces its steps, but that only makes the images it creates all the more potent. While the film initially centers on a creator of such images in the roaming photographer Alex, played by Kai Lennox of recent series like Perry Mason and Fargo, it soon expands outwards. First, we get to know a couple of strangers that he encounters on his trip through the American Southwest, but they only represent the beginning of the trouble that will consume everyone in Alexs orbit. There is his wife Sam, played by Sarah Lind of the underrated recent horror film A Wounded Fawn, as well as the haggard private detective Harold (David Yow) who she reaches out to for help when things begin to go awry.
