The interesting ones so far...

"Macabre" by Jerónimo Rocha and João Miguel Real

Synopsis: K just crashed his Mercedes-Benz into a tree, moments after trying to avoid running down a small wild animal that ran across his path. He is on a backwater road in the countryside and it’s a very dark night. His evening has only just begun...

My thoughts: I'm still thinking about this one. There are a lot of clever shots and transitions. If you want a strong plot, its not here, other than the beginning and the end. There are about 15 minutes of film that is much more about the animation, imagery and creating mood/tension.

The Purchase directed and written by Patrick Townsend

Synopsis: A troubled couple receives a surprise in the mail.

My Thoughts: An interesting sci fi short mixing relationship issues with the benign horrific future of 'predictive' purchasing. I think the more privacy focuse of neocities will really appreciate this one.

Walls Like Windows directed and written by Werner Vivier

Synopsis: Leon is an escort who has been summoned to the home of an older woman for his work that day. He arrives at Maggie's well-appointed, lived-in home, where the two settle down for a chat.

My Thoughts: Well done, but I felt like it was missing something?

Final Offer by Mark Slutsky

Synopsis: A down-on-his-luck lawyer awakes in a doorless room to find he's been selected to negotiate on behalf of the human race.

My Thoughts: Good pacing, acting, dialogue. The way it explore bullshit laws/legalese on a cosmic scale was interesting and wild.
