VIFF 25 #3 (Short Forum 1, Film 7 of 7)
As mentioned in my other reviews, I went into this short forum completely blind. Every time a new short started, it's title, genre, length, and plot were entirely unknown to me. This short was WILD. I was taken completely by surprise. While definitely still thematically linked to many of the other shorts, it was certainly different. Weird in the kind of wonderful way, in which it's filled with this unbridled creativity. It was more violent/gruesome than I was perhaps ready for, but overall, I was pleasantly surprised.
