Me and my friends made a movie, it's only 75% done, but we released a trailer for it. Now, this is just a home movie filmed on a normal camcorder, but we put tons of special effects and fake blood in it. The trailer shows only a tiny part of all the stuff that's going to be in it. By the way, I'm the main character! I don't want to spoil the plot for you, as soon as the movie's done and uploaded, I'll give you guys a link. Some feedback on the trailer (and later the movie) is more than welcome!

That was a "killer" match cut with the blade and the door opening. Good pacing with the trailer, I want to see the movie, how long is it? DV, High8, VHS? The only thing I'd change was the length of the titles.
Who shot it? Who directed it? I liked the shots and the blocking was pretty good too.

"That was a "killer" match cut.." - HAHAHAHA, good one me, high 5.

Oh yeah, why'd you just give me a neg rep with no reason? I hate it when people do that, it's like sh*tting in someones lawn and running off.

I'm downloading it right now, but could you post how big it is, cause I've got cable and even for me it's taking a while. woah there it is...

hey that's pretty cool, love the flashes of action and blood. These flashes contrast well with the slow titles causing some cool atmosphere. The sound effects are real awesome too and really cut into the spoOkY music.

It looks like a good movie from the trailer, I'm guessing it will be a long time b4 you finish the real movie.....unless you are secretly a huge hollywood producer.......u aren't are you? If yes could you pick up my idea for a sequel to Shrek 2 called "Shrek 3: Judgement day, Donkey's revenge" :p

Well, we started filming last year in the winter, plus we have to redo a bunch of crap, so we're aiming for a january-february release, that is if my friend pulls his head out of his ass and actually decides to do it. We tried to many trimes before, but just ended up going to the arcade and playing silent scope. :D

Don't worry it will get released eventually, and to answer your question - no we're not secret Hollywood producers, just a bunch of kids with too much free time on thier hands and a lot of fake bloodpacks in thier mouths.

What kind are you getting? If you're going DV, make sure it's got the 3ccd color chips.

This weekend me and my buddies are entering the final stage of filming this motha'! After that it's all editing, so be ready for it in the beginning of next year, because my friend is quite lazy so it'll take him a while to polish it.

My friend went on Limewire, searched up movie music, and downloaded about 1.5 gb of random movie sounds.
