Whoa....!! Talk about creepy!
planktonrules6 September 2010
Warning: Spoilers
This short film begins in the 1960s. I man is crouched over a dead body and he's wearing gloves soaked in blood. He's talking to someone over the phone...but then you see the phone is broken and not connected. Clearly, this man is many fries short of a Happy Meal. Then, when the camera pans back, you see he's killed a woman and removed her heart. The blood is a bit unrealistic, but the heart looked pretty real. Then, he puts the heart into a box.

The film then shows him in action. He approaches the next home as a salesman, of sorts. But, when he talks to the unsuspecting housewife, he sounds totally crazy...difficult to follow and rambling. When this fails, he is shown in his car...doing VERY, VERY crazy things!! And, when he returns, bad things happen.

The film is a very odd account of a twisted and highly disturbed man. I am sure many will be quite disturbed by all this...as it is well acted and creepy. And,because of this, I am sure it's not everyone's cup of tea--so to speak. But, aside from a poor shot where the victim is slightly out of focus, the film is very professional and hard to forget.

This is a very original off-beat short!!!!

Chuck truly evokes an array of emotions from horror to self-loathing. This is a real movie folks, it keeps a wonderful pace in terms of story and storytelling. My hat goes off to Harris Mann for one of the most sincere portrayals of a psychopath since Norman Bates. I loved it!!!!

Fantastically scary little movie with a great performance by the fellow who plays the lead character. This film really caught me by surprise when I saw it. The sound effects are quite remarkable and effective in getting you inside Chuck's head. Highly recommended!
