That was awesome! I am so impressed you put that together so quickly. Totally should have won best film but I guess you should spread the love.
We want to see one of Nick's puppet shows! And, yes, that guy's comics would totally @!%$-up a kid!

Well Done. I like the emphasis on the shadows and its relation with darkness. Music in the beginning flows really well. I love the theme and its whole flow of consistency throughout the film.

I love the subject matter instantly everyone who watches it can relate and I found myself thinking ' oh ya, I remember what lurked in the shadows of the night kept me up many nights." I loved the music ...takes you into the feel of the images on screen. After working with many teens and looking at their constant doodles ...Pee Chee folders covered with detailed of "dark material" it was great to share an interesting creative side ...rather than the "Oh my goodness my son draws the creepiest things.." Great use of real actors and artwork .. Nicely done . only gripe wish it could have been longer I was interested to hear and see more!!! Great job loved the credits too!
