Prey Alone is one of the greats.
10/10, and Bravo.
I've found that this movie boasts an atmosphere similar to that of the first Matrix ( the good one ), noticed the dominant dark green colors, the plot unwrapping over time, the confused characters. All in all it's very well edited and really captivates the viewer for its 15 minutes of run time.
The entire movie is shot against green screen. That means all that's real are the actors and some hand props. Filming was completed in four days, leaving the rest to be done on computer. The visual effects were done in 3dsmax and adobe aftereffects and I must say they are gorgeous: lens flares, cars, planes, scenery, everything blends in just right with the whole movie, creating a new feel to it.
I really loved the ending and the way everything makes sense in the end. I recommend taking the time to get this short movie and watching it. Makes you think a little about life.
Shot using green screen and with almost no sets the film is the perfect combination of special effects and intelligent storytelling. The acting is good, mindful of the genre it is working in, but perfectly suited to the story. The special effects aren't blockbuster standard but for the budget they are very impressive and they are never bad enough to distract you from the story.
Hardly subtle but undeniably thrilling which is very very rare for a short film these days.
At first, the film seems to have an ill-developed plot, as I felt a bit lost. If you feel this way, DO NOT stop watching--let the film continue until it ends and it will all make sense--trust me (have I let you down before?).
A wonderful achievement and a heck of a film considering how it was made.
