Sit Tight
Style and substance. A top notch film from a rad bunch of film-makers.
the improvement this bunch of film-makers have made in a short period of time is impressive. There's no knowing how far these guys will go in film-making.
I wouldn't go as far as saying they were robbed from awards etc as many have said, as art is always a subjective endeavour, awards and nominations aren't what we should be striving for. But what i will say is that the film this team made was something to be stoked about!!
Yeaagghewahh (Love Ya Face)
Check out this film. The eddie page team have gone from strength to strength over the years. This years offering showcased a maturity in the way the story unfolded and with some great gross out moments to boot.
Going Solo
For some reason this film gave some Rick and Morty Vibes - don't ask me why - but its quite apt as R+M is heavily multiverse. so bravo:)
A fun film which will have you cracking up... even if you're sitting at home alone watching it... eating 3 day old pizza... in your underwear... surrounded by cats...
Totally not speaking from experience.
Superb film
Brian
Yikes. That was a slick film. From the opening shot to the final frame everything felt purposeful and perfectly in place for the world that was built. the exterior church scenes gave beautiful vibes of horror films gone by - huge plus for me as theres a soft spot for the horrors of yesteryear in my heart.
only downside was the story. Would have loved to have seen something more unfold from this location and premise. I don't presume to tell you how to do your art as thats what makes art interesting have everyone give their own take. But to me, a bit flat
Loved the sound design which worked so well given the context of an apocalypse. Make up 10/10. Performances superb!
If You See Them
This film mostly just flew over my head. I dont quite understand what the "astral cowboy" was up to and why the friends wouldn't want old mate to go with him to a rave? Is it because raving is beneath them and their pretentiousness?
Regardless of my lack of understanding, A couple of great comedy moments with the "astral cowboy". And Great acting mixed in there!
Oh Crap
Loved this film so much. A struggle I'm pretty sure everyone can relate to executed in a hilarious fashion. A perfect blend of suspense techniques enhanced the comedy ridiculousness of the whole endeavour.
Our only complaint is we have to wait so long to watch it again.
ACAB: All Cops Are Builders
Love loved loved this take on a crime caper. The puns were unreal and the set-ups and pay off worked a treat.
seems the time was spent well in post - being the stand off scene as this was pivotal to the story and it was executed really well with all of the effects looking smooth and appropriate!.
Greed
Loved this film. Great pacing and the story had me guessing where it was headed. The pay off was unexpected but satisfying. On top of the story elements some really great cinematography and editing techniques on display throughout. Nicely done!
Flüstern des Herzens
Solid effort with huge atmosphere. This film revels in its strangeness and stays there. A definite front runner to take out the incredibly strange award at this years comp IMO
Deep
Umm what the actual...
a romp into a post apocalyptic submerged world........ W all around
tim and his team really leans into their strengths on this one. No-one can say that the effort and execution of the set wasn't topnotch.
great film, much cinematography, such production design
