Just Watched it on YouTube


Just some thoughts about this. I noticed some people have praised the short film while others think it's terrible. I wouldn't go to either extreme as the film is nothing exactly special. The plot was almost non existent and the film tends to drag, even at it's very short time frame. The positive thing about the movie is the wonderful cinematography that would become one the staples of Spielberg's huge filmography.

I didn't totally care for the film but it's worth watching once just to see the very early starts of one of the highest grossing directors of all time.



I'm just a guy that likes horror flicks.

I agree. But how did it win an award?
