Thug no.1 was amazing can't believe how good it was I'm gonna write lots of stuff now because it says I need to put 600 letters in this review but Im not sure what else to say btw im starting this thing called drop shipping and im gonna buy a cable machine with the money that I get so I can work all muscles on the chest (mainly the upper chest).

I'm in a car right now driving home with thug no.1 his performance was genuinely amazing so well done to him I've only got 128 letters left to write so this review will end soon and I won't have to keep thinking of random things to say oh wait it's done now bye.

A Good First Step

With compelling visuals, and a strong foray into the world of horror for a first time Director, this film is a good first step into the world of film-making for Keith Allott.

The limited use of dialog throughout the film serves to build tension, as well as the use of shadow and light. In fact, interestingly, it can be noted that the woman in the story is always heading towards the light. Whether this was intentional I do not know, but adds a fascinating dimension to the flow of the film.

A great first film, and a promise of potential for the future.

Very Impressed

A short film that uses lots of different camera techniques, angles and effects to make it clever and fun. The first part is fast and gets you interested and the end actually left with me with a little shiver down my spine. This is Alott's first film and know him personally so was extremely impressed when I seen the results. He also features in the film himself as the psycho killer and seems to play the role naturally! (quite worryingly!!)

I think he will go on to produce many fantastic things!

Low on money, high in quality.

With no budget and only 2 days to film with a largely inexperienced cast and crew, we have managed to create some genuinely chilling moments and a largely coherent story with some nice stylistic touches. The stand out pieces being parts of the lighting, editing and camera work during the house sequence at the end. A bloody good start now let's keep the ball rolling!!!
