KING of KILL (Exploitation film by Terrence Malick) I have been a student of film my entire life, and consciously wanted to make a marketable genre film for my first feature. At the same time, I love art house films, especially Malick. Here is a trailer I entered into an online film trailer...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27YxAsBLksg I have been filming this on weekends with other starving artists. I wanted to make an exploitation genre film that also looked like a Terrence Malick art film. Two minute Misery-Noir trailer. Spot the macabre humor and references.

One of the best looking shorts I've seen Bravo! Everything was well done from the cinematography to the editing, to the music. The only critique I might have is that the script seems a little cliché.

From a non-German perspective I don't speak German, so all I had to go on were the visuals, sound design, and overall tone. I liked the sound design in the teaser. It built suspense. The part where it shakes and debris falls was kinda cheesy. Overall, it did not make me interested in the...

Very nice cinematography You have a good eye. Shots look really cool. Critiques would be that the actors all look really young, (range in ages of actors makes it seem less film school) and because of your budget, the effects shots really take you out of it because they are so incomplete...

Less of a short film, more of a sequence The last posts have sorta said what needed to be said: This is not a short film, so much as it is a scene/sequence of a man exploring an abandoned house. It kinda feels autobiographical in that you were walking around in real life, saw an abandoned...

The Sapphires I heard about this movie because of the controversy of the Chris O'Doud DVD cover. It's a musical biopic about a group of 1960's Aborigine female singers who go to Vietnam to perform for the troops. O'Doud plays their manager and while he plays a prominent role, he is not the...

I LOVE remakes/sequels/prequels Nobody gets upset when they do a new production of a play, with different artists giving their interpretation of the material. With movies, people act outraged, as if the original material is somehow sacred and should never again be revisited by new artists...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWFJwW19cc4 This is my third short film, but the first one in which I made a teaser trailer for it first. I really took the time to avoid giving away too much of the plot, but still leave enough to hopefully garner a little interest and curiosity. Also, I...

Film looks legit, but the story didn't really grab me. If this were the teaser to a big budget Hollywood film, I'd probably dismiss it as a generic thriller of some kind.

Well paced and the images worked well for me. Agree with the guy who said the hit looked a bit fake.

images look cool. some of the lines come off really cheesy.

the animation and the style of the images are amazing. like the concept of the story. somehow the editing and the way it unfolded didn't quite work for me.

seems kinda generic. the images and sound were very good, but I didn't see or hear anything that really made me want to see the actual feature. the title is boring.
