It’s never a good sign when a short film actually WARNS you not to watch.  Especially when said warning looks like this:

i know, i know, its shitty. the lens keeps making noise, and so does my phone, some scenes are dark, its probably confusing, and not to mention, stupid.  it was for my modern film and lit class.  i was really rushed on this assignment, so i had to use shitty editing programs.  i might go back and fix it eventually.
also, i know i change my outfit about 50 times.

This begs the obvious question:  then why did you put it on YouTube?  But, let’s laugh in the face of an obvious warning (I just hope we don’t regret it like those darned kids in pretty much every slasher movie ever made!) and go forth to survey the damage.

First, the plot–basically, a girl dies under mysterious circumstances, but those circumstances are actually a lot more mysterious than anyone’s letting on.  Just in case you actually want to try this one, I won’t give away the twist ending, which actually does manage to be something of a surprise.

Aside from that, however, the warnings are all as advertised.  Some scenes will be unwatchable.  Some that are watchable will just be pointless, like when we get to stare at a shower curtain.  Those that are watchable and actually advance the plot will be plagued with horrible audio artifacts and other grievous errors, including my personal favorite, “I swing a hammer straight up and down”.

But an unintended consequence of this movie is that it’s actually kind of funny.  Sure, we’re laughing AT it rather than WITH it, but a laugh is a laugh, and these days, that’s not so bad.

The Screenhead Ten Scale gives this unintentional comic gem a three out of ten for both effort and giving me a few good chuckles.
