WELL DONE to the producers


i guess this movie was done to get more money for the next production
and i admit it looks more than $7,500

besides awful camerawork, non existing lighting, incredible bad acting, almost no sound effects, out of sync dubs and music that makes my ears bleed you could have done way more in post by getting professionals to do the job (for names in the credits of course)
the way it is at the moment it's almost unwatchable

i won't say it's the next boll thing - because i admire the fact you have finished a full feature with no budget
but keep in mind rodriguez made el mariachi with $9,000

I watched it as an interesting story with some motion pictures that are obviously low-budged, but after all I thought that you spent much more than 7500$ :)

well - if you look at what equipment costs these days
you can get a proper hd cam with an ok lense plus a bit of light and sound stuff
together with a nice shiny macbook and fcp you can not only produce corporate stuff and finance your short movie ambitions

i think it was never as easy as it is now to produce high quality video/film
but it takes time and energy

and as far as i remember from the $9000 about $7000 have been film development costs
