BFF 2012 - Manborg




This film is hilariously entertaining, bad taste at it's best. It's very obvious that the director's taste in bad 80s action cliches is evident in this film, and it doesn't take itself seriously. This mixed with a dry humour, makes this film a must see. For what it's designed to be, the special visual effects and make-up effects are amazingly creative. I recommend viewing this film for sure.

BFF 2012 - Ghosts With Shit Jobs


Ghosts with Shit Jobs Trailer June 2011 from Tate Young on Vimeo.


This film is as amazing as it's title. Created on a budget of only $5000, this film is a great example of unique creativity and thinking outside the box. It's minimalist sound design does a great job of creating a humorous dystopian future. If you get the chance to see it, it's worth a look.

BFF 2012 - Keyhole




I don't know where to start. Well watching this film, I was never bored and my attention never drifted from the film or the story. I would use the marmite metaphor for describing this film, when you see it you'll either love it or hate it. It was easy to follow the core of the story, and the simplicity of characters with goals. However it was difficult to pin down the structure and aesthetics of 'Keyhole's world and characters. But I did enjoy the visuals of this film. I would describe it as a psychedelic noir, about family, love and ghosts. Not for everyone but I really enjoyed it.

BFF 2012 - Flying Blind

Saw 'Flying Blind' last night. A very moving and thought provoking Drama with a good amount of tension and a satisfying conclusion, a very good film.

BFF 2012 - Up There



Just seen 'Up There', an entertaining dark comedy. If you have a sense of humour about death, then this is a film that's worth a view. Also got the chance to ask actor Burn Gorman a question about the production process during the video Q&A, which was awesome.

BFF 2012 - 8 Minutes Idle



Saw my first film of the 2012 Bath Film Festival last night, 8 Minutes Idle. A very funny and entertaining comedy. If you get the chance to see it, I definitely recommend watching it.
