I like the pacing of this a lot. Great music in the background, love the intro titles as well. Giving us a good sense of suspense. The shooting style in the woods - to make us feel like he's surrounded worked well. A lot of times people will shoot like that for no reason. Good to have it feel like it's from an actual 'source.'
My main quibble with this is that your lighting and color correction is a bit all over the place. Guessing the sun was going down? I'm also hearing some camera handling noise.
I don't like the shot at the end, where it's very much a POV thing, with the guy looking down and the body and looking up - but there's no character source of that ... it makes it seem rather weird - like someone was left standing right there, and invisible person. Would have been better to shoot that different, or remove the shot altogether.
Your camera's exposure is also jumping around - remember, "Auto" mode is never your friend! Always lock down your exposure.
Anyway, thought this was a great flick - love the audio work here and some GREAT shots and pacing.
Overall I give it a B+
Great work! I loved the titles in this as well. The hit with the thrown gun made me cringe, fantastic work on that as well as the blood on the dudes face!
I felt you had some shots that ran a little long for no other reason than to try to eat the entire 90 seconds. My opinion (and you can tell me to shove it at any point without ticking me off) would be to make the clip only as long as needed. If you have 78 seconds of pure awesome, just end it there!
Again, great work!

That was a nice movie! I like the special effects and the music. The blood also looked really cool.
Only at the fighting scene (where they where punching) some scene's where darker than others.
Great use of music, I really like your shaky camera work , it would normally seem somewhat amateur but it goes well with what's going on on screen. Watch out for handling sounds, try to edit them out! This is a very violent and nicely choreographed fight, good job on that, not all hits look real though, which should be one of your most important goals when making a fight.
Don't like the digital blood effect when the guy's being punched against the tree. I like the bird eye's shot but it's a bit too shaky. I also don't like the camera going back and forth between the guy walking a way and the unconscious guy, the fight's over you can give a sense of mental tension in the close ups but I would also show a sense of physical calmness in the wide shots.
You should watch out for light changes, otherwise try to color correct them. Speaking about CC, your video has a home video kind of look. It's okay, but you could get a nice ''filmic'' effect out of this camera with some SLIGHT grading.
I really liked the film, I would have probably voted for you if I hadn't voted for myself ;)
Well done boys! Feels authentic, starting with the telephone voice. Camera work etc, simply creative and thanks to the music this really stands out this week. The main character was warned, so where is his gun when he walks to the bunker? Also the last eye opening belongs to crappy horror movies. Otherwise only +:es. Great job!
I really like you quick and brutal the fighting is but I wish the guy died in the end. But well done.
The pace of this is great. Get's going and doesn't stop. Loved the gun throw and the effect of the guys face getting bashed in.
My only real criticism of this would be the color correction. You must have been fighting daylight because there is one scene in particular where it goes to (at least what looks like) dusk. That split second makes my me go "Hey, that's not right" and it pulls me away from the fight.
But, I really enjoyed this entry. Very fun to watch.
Really good entry. As others have said, pacing makes this really good. This is also one of the entries that totally showcases a fight scene. It seemed to me like some of the other entries weren't straight up fights, but this one is, for the most part, and I like that. The gun throw is great. Like the shaky camera work as well. Good stuff!
i really think this piece was edited well. The pacing of the action is spot on. I am not really a fan of extreme shake in handheld camera, but it worked very well in this piece.
The fighting was ok, but I guess I wanted to see more fisticuffs and less shooting.
I would have liked a little more exposition on who this guy is, and why he's got to go to a bunker in the woods?
Wow that was really good. Good job on the effects. I love the bit where he throws the gun was that done in after effects? I recon this should of come second instead of 4th
