When a radio show about video games is about to go under, a mysterious caller calls in and invites the host to try out his new creation. After jacking into the strange gaming system, it malfunctions and shorts out. Or does it? The host is thrust into a world where fantasy has become reality and he has to fight with everything he has learned from playing video games to survive. Written by Aaron Matthew Kaiser
For a "timed" competition project, this film shows real promise: an "open" feel to the scenes, despite deliberately tight camera angles, a thoughtful if not novel premise, and a decent conclusion. What's missing is any nuance to the delivery of every actor with more than two lines. Their entire air seems to be "look at me, how well I act"; instead of that effortless inhabitance of the character evidenced by actors with a lot of experience...or a lot more talent. Find a day job, guys. Also (without giving anything away) I ask you to watch the actors in the third major scene missing their marks, and the cheesy (hammy?) conclusion. These are MAJOR flaws in a very short film, evidencing either a lack of production values or production talent.
