Day 7

  • Before the Fall
Impending doom and the disintegration of social fabric that ensues. That pretty much sums up the first 15 minutes or so, then it goes downhill fast, and becomes quickly boring before the second story kicks in. Well shot, artsy, great ambiance, a tad too long.
  • 8th Wonderland
Good questions, good theme, but neither a thriller nor a fantastic film nor exactly SF. All in all a good picture of how virtual communities usually work, and of the kind of disaster they might bring on should they become more than virtual.
  • Shrill cries of Summer
First in BIFFF sleep...
A Japanese family moves to a beautiful village, faraway in the mountains. In Japan like in say, Tasmania, Switzerland or Argentina, the hillbillies have secrets, deadly secrets.
Nice photography, nice plot, 45 minutes too long.
  • Dead in 3 Days 2
The first opus was more than bearable, because of its plot. Here, the scenario seems to revolve around happenstances, Deus ex machina and
Dumb, long.
  • Walled in
From some Brussolo novel. Nice setting, boring plot, adequate ambiance, but far too long. Better as a book. If you can stand Brussolo...
  • One eyed Monster
A film crew goes in the mountains to film a pr0n movie. Then, something from beyond possesses the main actor's dick.
Nice and funny.
