I think it’s a major documentary about this

large-scale, most dangerous development that 

lives in the depth of our mythical conscious-

ness and can, therefore, rise at any given time,

creating havoc. Here it is, in your film, indicating

its wide-ranging capacity, leading from hatred

to murder.

- Zsuzsanna Ozsvath, Leah and Paul Lewis

Chair of Holocaust Studies, UT Dallas

 

As this film makes graphic, a climate of

hostile opinion affects Jews in Europe

today in ways few could have anticipated

as recently as a decade ago. No one who

watches THE MONSTER AMONG US can

doubt that anti-Semitism is back and needs

to be taken seriously. The interviews pre-

sented here drive home that point credibly

and unmistakably.”

 - Alvin H. Rosenfeld, Professor of English

and Jewish Studies & Director of the Institute

for Jewish Culture and the Arts, Indiana University

The U.S. State Department released an

80-page report to Congress in mid-March, entitled "Contemporary Global Anti-Semitism", detailing an upsurge across

the world of anti-Semitism.

Remember the phrase, “Never Again!” This is one

way for those of us in Dallas to try  to help ensure

nothing like the Holocaust happens again.

- Harriet Gross, Reporter and Columnist, Texas Jewish

Post and Dallas Morning Post

… grapples with a different form of contemporary

racism--namely, European anti-Semitism… takes a compre-hensive  comprehensive look at the modern state of Jew hatred in Paris, London, and everywherein between… ‘Monster’ asks the right questions (Is another Holocaust possible? Has Europe owned up to its Jew problem?)

- by Eric Kohn, indieWIRE.com

It was (is) mind jolting. 

- Bill Flynn, Actor and Board Member of the Dallas

Producers Association

Your work is bold and courageous. ..I congratulate

you on a meaningful message and the wisdom to

speak it. It shows a perspective that people need to

know.

- Niki Nicastro McCuistion, Television Producer

The movie was very moving and disturbing; I could

not go to sleep for hours. I had to  go home and

hug my sleeping boys.

- Danny Hurley, Photographer and Adjunct Professor,

UT Dallas

“Today, more than 60 years after the

Holocaust, anti-Semitism is not just a

factof history, it is a current event,” the report indicates.

 

This kind of anti-Semitism, the report says,"is common throughout the Middle

East and in Muslim communities in Eur-

ope, but it is not confined to these populations."

I also really liked how you explored the internet's role in this new wave of anti-Semitism… the

videos were shocking and disturbing. Sadly, I suppose there is no solution that you could have presented, except for the plans to relocate to Isreal.    It was a disheartening ending, which is absolutely necessary for the film. I think it shows a true respect and honest assessment of the severity of the problem.m.

Your film is very important and I’m so glad that I had

the opportunity to see it and to experience the audience’s approval of it.

- Linda Mitchell, Entrepreneur & Businesswoman

 

It was sad to be reminded that the same mentality that engendered the Holocaust is alive and grow-ing…to hear the people interviewed in your film say that they felt threatened in their own country enough

to consider emigrating (and to know that they live in liberal democracies -- England, France and Bel-gium). It was sad to hear the interview with the British MP who spoke of breaking the yoke of the United States (and thereby of Israel)it's one thing to hear anti-Semitic speech coming from religiouszealots or skinheads; but to hear it from a (suppos-edly) well-educated western politician is quite another. It was sad to see the Jewish ceme-tery, the gravestones painted with swastikas. I wish it all ‘were’ in the past; it's awful that the issue con-tinues to affect people's lives. I think that your film accom-plished what it was intended to do; thank you for letting me experience it.
