Jeff Kirkendall is doing his "distinguished" accent again which sounds vaguely like Elmer Fudd and Mark works as a burger flipper in an ancient Egyptian temple and then later a jungle that looks like the indoor plant section in an Ikea. Lots of life-draining stock footage otherwise and one part where it looks like someone playing Doom with a bandaged paper maché shark for a gun. Paid attention to this for 20 minutes until I started doing other stuff for 20 more minutes while I let it play, so I'm allowed to log it. Mark Polonia's films are to be expected if you know what kind of work he does....

1986 directed by Jim Campbell is pretty good in the cinematography department, in charge of Scott Coulter. The way the camera is complimented by the lightning is just beautiful in some shots. I can obviously see the aim here was to give the short film that neon look that is so characteristic of some 1980s media, like Hotline Miami, Miami Vice and Blade Runner.

I also love the character costume design for Batman and Punisher, made by Chloe Leeson and Megan Wallace, because they are also obvious and very well made low-budget references to the character costumes from the 80s comic-books. Well deserved watch!

A very good Batman fan film with a great low budget cast and crew. This seems to be going to places. Hope the director does some great things with this excellent piece.
