Having just found this short a half hour ago, it is apparently almost 6 years old - and still one the most moving shorts I've ever seen.

Christ, that depressed me.

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

I didn't think it was *that* depressing. I mean, I thought it was sad and all, a little bit moving, but then again, I'm usually not affected much by this kind of stuff.

On the other hand, I like the style of the thing, quite well done in my opinion. The music was also quite effective at evoking emotion.

Very sad, but so beautiful at the same time.  I just wish the creatures didn't remind me so much of Raving Rabids.  Still, an easy 5 stars. :3

Slowly we crawl in the dark.
Swallowed by the seductive night.

It didn't do a whole lot for me.  There's being loose with a narrative, and then there's loosening it to the point where one no longer has a real connection to the characters; this struck me as being the latter case.  The actual style and design was very good, though.

Not depressing for me, but a very good short nonetheless.

I love the noir style. I thought it was touching, and deeply captivating.
