    A Thrilling Short

    I'm a cousin of the composer, Austin Donahue, and at Thanksgiving 2004, he showed us this movie to show off his musical score in the film. He also showed us a trailer for his movie, Twilight, but that's for another review.

    This is a very chilling and thrilling short. 2 kids are in a field playing around. I won't divulge any of the story, which is very little, due to the length of the short. It was directed well, and the score complimented the movie very well.

    As a final statement, I'd just like to say that I liked the film as a chilling short. I heard that there were plans to make it a feature, and if so, I'd be willing to go see it shown.
