The acting is out of this world - LITERALLY!!!!

I stumbled upon this at the Erie Film Festival and was blown away! The special effects and acting were first rate on a third world rate budget!!! Here's to the courage of the cast and crew!

These ragtag players put together a crowd pleaser that's at once scary, at once goofy, but always entertaining. Film schools everywhere could learn from the techniques used throughout this short. Not only were the special effects done at an award winning level, but the makeup and costumes were right out there with any frightfest!

Acting overall was beyond memorable. And was it me, or did T.E. Lawrence have a certain Adrian Brody way about him? If fate holds true Oscar will shine his way as well.

Fun Film

Well done short film done a shoe-string budget.

Yes, it owes to other filmmakers, but I dare anyone to say anything it truly original. Everyone is influenced by someone. It's what you do with it that counts.

I am a great admirer of T.E. Lawrence, and I must confess I came to this film initially because of the connection. Admittedly, there is little substantial connection; but I wonder how that could be elaborated on and how it could make a highly enjoyable homage, albeit a very unusual one.

Let's face it - there's too much drama in our lives, and life is too short. That's why we NEED films like this. It's fun, it's useless, and hey, we don't have to think! I loved it...
