Haha. I LOVED the excessive slapping and bleeding in the beginning. Once that happened I was fully engaged into this movie. The acting, the sets, the plot, the music, the cinematography... ALL that stuff was very typical of your run o\' the mill soap opera, which made this a really good & effective parody piece. ...And I also noticed you used the \"As the World Turns\" theme there.... I only know that btw, because my mom used to watch that fucking show all the stinkin\' time. I mean \"I\" don\'t watch it or anything... \"I\" don\'t.... ....Nice work. ;)

Is the dishwasher on in the background? You really need to work on framing your shots better. You use the zoom way too much. Although, so do soap operas.

If you are going for a static shot of someone talking, do not position them so that they are in the middle of the screen and there is half of the frame empty above their head. Tilt that camera down a bit and position them higher in the frame so you can see mroe of them and less of that annoying negative space.

I don\'t get the teary eyed look as he watches his friend smoke one.

You used more pans in this one, and that (almost) always makes a shot look more appealing than a series of static ones. However, that\'s the only real good point about this movie. I think this was one of your weaker stories.

Don\'t sacrifice a good story for goofy slap-stick comedy. Although 95% of the movies on here are supposed to be comedies, it\'s very refreshing to see a serious take on a theme once in a while.

Blood + Slapping = fun

A little work in framing the shots better. Acting was so so, but really bland from that one stoner chick. Slapping was great! Some of your fill in shots seemed a little out of place. You could also hear a repetitive noise in the background when you were eating.

What did you use for the blood at the end? A ketchup dispenser? It was a little weak.

This felt almost like three little movies within one, I think the first one was definitely the best and stayed closest to the soap opera format. I especially liked the face-slapping in the first part, very dramatic!

The second and third sections of this kind of strayed away, was the third one some sort of weird sacrifice section? Not as good. You almost could have ended it at the first part and it would have worked.

The voiceover at the end was good. Otherwise there were some sound issues, especially in the background noise in the first section and some quiet parts in the second section of the film.

Good entry but I think your last one had some better production values. And again your actors smile and barely can contain their laughter!! Try to work on that for next time...

Also bring back SATAN DUCK for the nightmare fight.

It\'s getting a lot better. Quality wise. There were a few good laughs for me. The voice over was weird and nice. Who did it?




As always, your love Kevin Mosley

You\'re getting better. good spoof, very much liked it.

On a technical aspect, take a little more time to shoot your ideas. You\'ve got the talent, don\'t scrimp on the shots. work on the audio.

Overall- me likey.
