MartinHafer This is a short film that I wasn't planning on reviewing. However, after seeing only one other review (and one so very, very positive), I thought I'd throw in my two cents worth, so to speak. While I did not dislike the film, I wasn't nearly as impressed--especially since I have seen so many other short films lately. Compared to others, this one is pretty good but certainly not outstanding--at least as far as the plot goes. It just seemed incomplete and unsatisfying to deserve such praise--unless you like the direction the plot goes. I am not into the supernatural in general, so this might account for my feelings about it. Anne Rice fans and fans of TWILIGHT will no doubt love it.However, one thing I really did like was the look of the film--the costumes, the funkadelic early 1970s look that is very eye-catching. The director and set designers did a great job and made the movie (complete with fake age marks on the film) look like a blast from the past.Overall, a decent film and I am left wanting to see more from the team that made it.
tron_delapp I was lucky enough to preview this gem at the 2006 FANTASTICFEST where the Hive's first effort, THE LISTENING DEAD, cruised to a BEST SHORT FILM award and I can assure you FAR OUT is a top contender for the 2007 award as well. Phil Mucci, Sean Joyner et al blaze a new path with a 5 minute talkie that evokes a 70s-VALLEY OF THE DOLLS-type feeling but with a modern sensibility and style all it's own. Mucci's influences (Bava, Franco, Argento, Fulci, etc) are represented but rather than ape their styles the Hive crafted a cinematically gorgeous, incredibly detailed horror-comedy that is at once an homage as well as a throwback that would have felt right at home in the era...and it's only 5 minutes long! What these guys would do with a feature! I urge you to take a look at this wonderfully crafted, funny-as-hell,watch it ten times and still see something new modern classic. Kudos to Phill Mucci and the Hive!
