So Many Laughs! Well done guys this took some effort! My main complaint would be that your camera work frequently got sloppy. Props / Art direction / Storyline / Scripting / SFX were all a solid A from me, and I madly respect the apparent effort in edit.
Hilarious This was a fun story. The two main actors were good and there were plenty of great physical and cheesy special effects jokes (fist from the grave and the hit and run). A few shots were a bit inconsistent but considering the limited number of team members it worked out really well, great work in the editing sweet. A few issues with sound and lighting here and there but an entertaining romp definitely one of the better films of the night.

This film was really funny - So good job. It was a tough genre to work with, but you guys did a great job. I do have to say, I found that the humour did go a little bit over the top at some points with believability issues. A very good comedy.
First and foremost, this had a really tight story that delivered a satisfying conclusion. As always, such special effects are impressive in a 48 Hours films. Lackluster technical execution (camerawork, audio) was not enough to detract from the funny script and solid structure. My favorite film of its heat.
Prob my favourite of the night. The cheesy intro helped to kick off the feel for the rest of the film. Lots of gags in this film which kept me smiling from beginning to end. A few issues with the lighting and also a boom in shot for quite awhile but other then that was a good funny film for a tricky genre.
LOVED this film. So hilarious, brilliant acting, amazing story. A few minor tech issues here and there but didn't detract from it being a particularly enjoyable film. Unsure about how it adhered to the "thriller" part of the genre but who am I kidding, I don't really care. Cheers for the awesome film.
Sadly this film had a few issues with the levels, which made us miss various parts of the story. However, this did not seriously detract from what was otherwise a very good film. Obviously there was an element of “B-grade” and cheesiness, which you stuck to, and worked excellently. It made a very comedic film that seemed to do exactly what it set out to do. Well done!

I laughed then laughed again. You went for humour and you had the audience laughing, that's a win right there. The 48 hour competition is a time when you need to play to your strengths and Joseph plays to his strengths in post production here. The number of effects shots that were completed in this film are the ultimate payoff of a good planning and shooting schedule. There was a mix of dry and over the top humour and the gags were both funny and well executed. The flip side of this mix were the times that scenes jumped between the two styles of humour which I felt reduced the cohesiveness of the world you created. As has been said previously the camerawork was a bit rough around the edges in places, however the acting was great (you could tell you were having fun!) and, as would be expected with an effect heavy piece, the story boarding and visual planning was handled well. A solid effort that had the audience on side.

The two leads made this film. Very funny delivery and well written lines although the narrative was a little half baked and could have gone into some interesting areas. The visual effects were pretty cool, and these guys definitely have a style. But as funny as this flick was I feel it didn't really nail the genre: Techno Thriller. When I think of that genre films like Sneakers and Wargames come to mind. Good work anyway guys, I look forward to seeing more of your humour.

Well done this film. It had a fun story, good acting, was creative and funny. Yes there was some technical mistakes here and there, but it was enjoyable enough that i didn't really mind. Extra credit for pulling this off in 48 hours with such a small time. Overall i'd call it messy but fun.

Hey guys! Loved the film! We really enjoyed your sense of humor and how you didn't take the difficult genre too seriously! Your lighting wasn't perfect and there were a few sound issues but overall you did a great job on executing your Techno-Thriller!

I loved this film it made me laugh a lot. The devil worshipper costume was good, and the dressing gown was so STYLEY :-P As said by others some technical issues however good for 48hrs. Special Effects cool, plot line held together, liked the twist ending.
Sound and exposure issues in this one. Really enjoyed the pace and action. The gags were hilarious if not cheesy, but felt intentional. Good to see an Aoraki student going solo.
