8 Acre Films was created by a group of friends and has since become a kind of film making community. For the past three years we have been making films with the same ethos: It doesn't matter how ambitious it is our how little resources we have, just come up with the idea and then figure out how to make it happen.
This was a good one! We really don't know what kinds of configurations of atoms could constitute life in space. Very exciting although when seeing the creatures attacking outpost 27 I knew they were coming for outpost 23.
Very good, , I'm sure it hadn't got a Big budget,, put that's what works for it, I'm no kinda expert on movies I just like watching them,put I just think the actor has a lot of potential, you could see him in British TV dramas, maybe the States,as I said I no expert, put think he could become a kinda household name
Crankin story. Well played. So many sci fi shorts are so boring. With some stupid little surreal plot twist that fractures any believability. This one was entertaining the whole way. Well paced. And when we started thinking what it could be outside nothing prepared us for the scale and enormity of the problem. Would love to see the character escape but God knows how.
So freaking underrated. (I hate when people say that, so I'm a hypocrite). I throughly enjoyed this film from the set to the world building to the mystery and acting. The AI was very fun and the suspense of dread was even better. I loved how he states how crappy the station is and bad build, it was a very strategic world building move. As we see a technologically advanced community but still companies are cheap and cut corners anyway they can. Leaving that old time steampunk industrial revolution feel to the stations.
I really liked the well paced build up to the cliff hanger. Since I've been a sci-fi fan since the 1960's it was pretty easy to fill in about 3 dozen endings ranging from space termites to beings that were defending their biome of the nebula from the fuel processing plant. I wasn't really sure why the trope of evil corporate overlord was implied. Considering the expense of those outposts and crew it seems more likely a company would initiate a proper investigation.
🛡️ What I like this small movie flicked it was interesting and it isn't more like friendship and it was just moreand a twist beer that are like the state of mystery and they still blame the guy who was innocent 🦅
Well done, a freaky kind of setup out on your own with only sporatic communications with anyone and then THAT happens, and you are doomed. There is no way in Hell I would be doing THAT job.
How are two guys on different deep space outposts having a video chat in real time? Wouldn't they be separated by at least a few light minutes if not hours or days?
I play Webster in this and we are working on a new sci-fi comedy short. Id had a concern about sound on it and the director (Graeme) referenced your comment here during filming while he was talking about improving sound on our new project. We couldn't agree more with yoy you and we appreciate your accurate critique. :)
Very nice indeed, but guys, work on that accent! Not everyone speaks Scottish, or Aussie or whatever that was - we foreigners need to understand what is being said and done here! Nice work though!
Well, since I am from Greece, I have to tell you that the Scottish accent, as well as the Irish, are my two favorites in the English Language. Nonetheless, I find difficult to follow the dialogues without subtitles most of the times (although I think I can handle the English language rather efficiently). Also, compliments for the movie! For a low budget film, the FXs are very good, although the outpost panel could use a better finishing (the "paper" panel was rather obvious). The story was entertaining and with good suspense, perhaps if you had your camera closer to the protagonist you could had a more claustrophobic effect. All and all, well done!
