Reviews
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
equazcion Fractalus is an intriguingly weird little 25-minute short about a near future where humanity seems to be aware of God's location in the universe. Scientific and religious teams try to reach it constantly, but none have succeeded due to a breakdown of time-space during the approach.It's not exactly a big-budget production, but makes excellent use of what it has, presenting quite a delicious little riddle that you can have lots of fun interpreting.It's a brain twister, though of the type where you can feel there's a more coherent intended plot, rather than a jumble of artsy symbolism (think "Donnie Darko", as opposed to "Blue Velvet"). There are also some interesting explanations to be found around online.
chris-572-55027 1 Star for the production values. 0 For the script/direction.Meaningless pseudo metaphysical clap trap dressed in sci-fi.Kind of reminds you of the metaphysical ending of Kubricks 2001.. but without anything worth while preceding, blended with Twightlight for gen Y sci-fi fans...Judging by the credits quite a bit of time money & effort went into this nonsense.Is it just a tech demo of what this company can do in order to sell themselves to prospective clients?A teaser for an forth coming feature film? I sincerely hope not.Maybe it was just a concept to pitch at test audiences. Pretty sure it was canned because of audience reaction if it was.
