Need a review of my New Horror short

Ok, just finished my first ever horror short and I need some input.
(besides having better actors...they were free)

Everything i have learned (shooting and editing) has been from books and troma movies......so i have pretty thick skin. let me know what you think.
Fork in the Road

Worth sending into festivals?

that was pretty cool !

only thing i didnt like was the red lighting on the guys face and all the nodding he was doing ...
Didnt like the delivery of the '1st corps'
(thats some wwf shit right there ...)

but the concept was interesting .. the bat scene was well done,
the '3rd corpse' was pretty good with his lines.

said the same theme as natural born killers but still in a way that was different than what i've seen before.


did you deliberately try to make the guy look like Ash in the opening shot ?

thanks for watching it! its funny you mentioned ash......it didnt even cross my mind! (but now i think of it, your right!) this was my first film and i grew up having been influenced by evil dead and troma movies.
glad you liked it urgeok! (since i was the 3rd corpse! heh heh)

I thought it was pretty cool the only thing I didn't like were the wrestling references but it's not like it was that big a deal. Overall I'd say you did a good job.

Loved it. It reminded me of that scene in American Werewolf in London. Good luck (Bah, you won't see this anyway. :p )
