Alfred J Hemlock

I'm very surprised I hadn't found this until today! This is a great short film with a very powerful message. It's absolutely amazing!

This is a film well done. The story is told in a very clear way in such a short time, you get the deeper meaning of this shortfilm easily. The acting from the girl is quite bad, though, it doesn't feel natural to me. The Alfred actor though, wow! He played his character very well. Although the lines are quite cliché, I think it is a great shortfilm.

Its lead virtue - the inspired-smart game with familiar elements of Gothic for the public. The atmosphere, Alfred J. Hemlock, the force of few words in a dark moment, references to past and revenge. In same measure, the wise construction of the gallery and the transformation of the young woman. A good film for many interesting aspects. And, sure, for the performances, not at the same level but enough for a seductive puzzle.

This 15 min. Short features a woman who's kicked out of a car and left stranded in a alleyway by her boyfriend who appears to be the biggest A-hole on the planet. Soon she's tormented by a character who looks like a Pirates of the Caribbean Johnny Depp knockoff. The film has a good look and feel. The acting is Ok and special effects are on par with what's expected from a short. I found it entertaining and the main reason for that was the message. All in all it's worth 15 mins. Of your time someone may even get inspired to utilize the message for themselves.
