Best Critic in “Galacy?” Where is that? (I hope you didn’t mean “Galaxy” but the best critic can’t spell).
Slow but good.
cover was better than the actual short lol
joe meredith reminds me of a young john carpenter who used to do basically everything from editing to the lights…ah! if meredith had some more money or a decent producer he could do real wonders
Crap.
Audio is poor. Background music is way loud.
I think this is a really cool concept and an example of people using what they’ve got paired with their skills. It’d be really neat to see this expanded upon. The SFX/gore is incredible for what it is and the film itself has a cool vibe and atmosphere.
boring as hell is right,,, might make a good music vid with the right soundtrack, maybe some nine inch nails
“giggles the clown” nine inch nails damn bro stop trying to be edgy lmfao
You’re a faggot for using the term “edgy.”
Kill yourself zoomfag
I love that this site exist and there’s a place for movies like this!
But I think this short was to long and boring as hell!
Just a quick “thanks for existing” from a dogsbody in England. Couple of films I wanted to watch on here, couple I was tempted to watch by the comments and descriptions. Seriously, thank you. It’s hard to find a decent ‘shake you to your bones’ flick anywhere, and the ones I like, I buy. You are very much appreciated by this internet nobody.
It is very clear that a lot of heart and soul went into the making of this short. I have a lot of respect and admiration for Joe. I look forward to seeing future releases. he is a writer / director with a lot of potential.
Hi,
1st time I comment, great short and I’d like take this space to thank all “effeupmovies.com” crew members for their work so “precious”, ’cause as I’m used to say “we can’t always watch Barry Lyndon!”
Enlarge your world.
Thanks for all, greetings from Italy.
this one is good. its sequel teratormorph is way better.
Yeah, agree with both above comments. Should have been a feature film, it would have explained more about the plot. Great talent here on show by this director. Hopefully he will make a longer movie in the future. Cheers everyone.
I agree 100%!
…….and I want u remember (prepare, this is new for u) “Zed’s dead, baby, Zed’s dead!”
😉
Bye.
Wtf are you saying?
It’s a line from Pulp Fiction. I loathe almost everything by Tarantino, he steals so many ideas/plots/music etc
He doesn’t steal, you’re ignorant as fuck.
I want that RED SKULL’’’’’ Hang it in my living Room for ‘Conversation piece…… Great film, should’ve been longer…………Kool Flick………….thanks
THANK U ADMINS:) I’ve been wanting to see this film for quite a while! I don’t like recommending movies I haven’t personally seen tho for ur excellent site, so I’m glad someone else did. Unique; Brave; Left me wanting more. Those r some of the thoughts I had after viewing this short film. Unique in that it combined a highly distinctive plot regarding the hybrid alien spider weapons, with a hallucinatory feel in regards to the filming and ‘feel’, set against a quarantined industrial backdrop known as South Mill District. Brave in the use of the stop-motion special effects, which could very quickly make-or-break a film such as this. I’d say they added to the dreamlike quality, and tho at first somewhat distracting due to the camera not remaining perfectly still during such scenes, after a few it furthered the aforementioned dreamy feel of it, almost like u were in someone else’s thoughts, brain, or dreams. Brave of him to choose that sfx style, and while obv low-budget, was a completely fresh take on a stale af effects style for most various films in the horror genre. Practical effects (even stop-motion ones) almost always win out over CGI for me, usually. If u liked this style, another horror film that had effects like this I had found interesting and recommend is titled Mécanix. Left me wanting more, because that’s the major fucking problem with the good short films. So many feature-length films don’t deserve their runtimes (esp the current trend… Read more »
