"The best independent horror movie this year.
Packs an emotional and informative punch that
may just be the most important film of the decade."
-Tom Cappello, turnerclassicmovies.com
"Syriana for dummies.
While Syriana mostly confused folks, Oilcrash is straightforward enough
to scare them
- a startling, well-made documentary and every minute of it is
entertaining."
Laura Kyle, efilmcritic.com
"People need to see this movie"
-Don R. Lewis, FILM THREAT

Our civilization’s addiction to oil puts it on a
collision course with disaster. Compelling, intelligent, and highly
disturbing, the film visits with the world’s top experts and comes to a
startling but logical conclusion – our industrial society, built on
cheap and readily available oil, must be completely re-imagined and
overhauled. The world’s oil supplies are peaking and the crisis
of global shortage looms; we are running out of oil and we don’t have a
plan.
