Static Codes

Interesting drama centering around a paralyzed man's quest to find his missing wife with a unique twist of alien abduction intrigue. Many independent films such as this are often overlooked in the mainstream media because of much lower marketing dollars are not available to allocate to large advertising campaigns thus great little films like this get missed. Such is all the more reason to discover this hidden gem which features solid direction, good acting and a decent script from which to work. Writer and Director David Park delivers a solid story with good dramatic elements resulting in a satisfying film I found very enjoyable.

Well...I am grateful for people involved and all their efforts trying to pull this out , but simply it doesn't work. Think I managed to pull through 30 minutes and I am really sorry but had to shut it down cause it was too painfull to watch. Its just the way its so slowly progressing to something I couldnt less care what. The movie is playing with your patience. The characters are so generic as they are coming from some video game. Those cops really dont know what are they doing there and what is the final goal. Random scenes, random words, behaving of the characters is so numb and hard to watch. 2 stars and I am very generous.

Static Codes is an engaging and truly unique film in the Sci-Fi genre. After a man's wife is abducted by aliens, he becomes obsessed with finding her. I thought the special effects were fantastic in this movie, for example, having a face come out of a screen is very difficult to pull off, so hats off to the special effects team. I think the cinematography was outstanding, especially during the night scenes, and I was super impressed by the drone shots in particular, clearly the work of an excellent drone operator. I liked the soundtrack too. This movie is raw and doesn't shy away from human struggles.

The only thing worse than making a crap movie is getting all your friends and coworkers to rate it high when they all know better.. They should be forced to watch this three times straight just as penance for their ridiculous fake reviews.. Taryn was in it for maybe a minute and thirty seconds tops.. Nothing sci fi about it other than the glowing arm.. Superficial drivel at its finest.. Maybe tattoo guy was ok, but the rest of it was poor acting, bad lighting, weak production values and a horrendous script with nothing to say and nothing at all entertaining about it.. Don't waste your time on this and reward then for what is probably just a money laundering gig..! 🙄

This is solid drama about an alien abduction that focuses on those who are left behind and living in their loss, grief, and confusion. The lead character, played by Shane Woodson in a strong performance, has lost it all after an alien abduction and spends his nights reaching out on air with others obsessed with this phenomenon. The script is very cued in on the "us v. Them" and "you're with us or you're not" personalities that define this space. The script also understands the obsessive quality of those caught in a helpless state with no obvious leads out of it. It's a twisted path out of that hopelessness with some surprise twists and a redemption arc that the characters believably pull off. The cinematography is also strong, reflecting the characters inner states. I wished the alien aspect was explored more but I was emotionally involved in seeing the main character finds some light in his darkness.
