Grady (Ross Beschler), a recent city transplant, has his hands full fixing up his recently acquired lakeside resort lodge, hidden away in the Smokey Mountains of North Carolina. With only local boy Beetle (David J. Bonner) to assist, he inaugurates his hotel by inviting a group of college friends for the weekend. He also invites his recently aloof boyfriend Andy (Matthew Montgomery) to join in the fun. Instead of the anticipated cheeriness of a relaxing weekend, troubling events, strange behavior and an increasing sense of doom begin to trouble the already emotionally vulnerable Grady. He gets dumped by his boyfriend, begins to question his friends' reasons for being there and becomes wary of the outwardly jovial but potentially threatening Beetle. Is his paranoia warranted or is he the problem? When a violent storm keeps anyone from leaving the hotel, the pervading sense of doom intensifies. Director Robert Gaston, even with a small budget, creates an intense sense of dread, as nerves are frayed, suspicions aroused and the threat of violence hovers.
"Flight of the Cardinal" is a thriller set somewhere in North Carolina, in a place that grabs you and takes you on an uneasy yet exciting journey. Gaston turns the camera on his five fascinating character creations and gives them room to analyze, consider, probe and near eat one another. One of them is a creepy reprobate trying to manipulate each and every guest for his own gain.
The film has a wonderful cast, especially Bonner, who plays a wickedly evil antagonist. Gaston creates an intense sense of foreboding as we get to know the characters and as Grady becomes more aware of what is really going on. The climax of the film is intensely satisfying.
Early on, while looking out a window, Beetle explains how the cardinal marks his territory and becomes furious when another cardinal invades his nest. Like the cardinal, Gaston marks his territory and emerges as a wonderful storyteller and a fine film director. (This description of film by Amos Lassen)
