I came to the movie a big fan of Alan Moore's work. I have read quite a few of his comics, and have seen some of their adaptations. I watched this movie after seeing a recent interview of his, where he mentioned this short as being the only one of his movies that he didn't want to disown. It did not disappoint.
The movie presents a gritty, surrealistic picture that puts your emotions on edge almost from the first second. There's a certain ambiance, and creeping fear or apprehension that edges into so many scenes without drawing from an obvious source. The music is subtle, and complements the film perfectly. The storyline itself is also deeply engaging, and the ah- ha moment that comes when you realize what the movie is about is quite satisfying. I don't want to reveal too much about the movie, so I will just say that you will not be disappointed, and I can't think of a better way to spend half an hour.
