The film Rorret, which Wetzl co-wrote and directed, was described as having "turn[ed] a thriller into a yawner"[1] by the Boston Globe, but was considered "a cinematic shrine to the creepy classics" by the Buffalo News [2] Vincent Canby on New York Times about the film wrote: "The movie can be best appreciated as the work of an obsessed, talented, ultimately very practical film student." [3]

The film "First the Music Then the Word" was shown in several U.S. film festivals. Among others San Diego Film Festival, 2000,[4] Italian Film Festival of Marin County, 1999,[5] N.I.C.E.
