*Spoilers* In the short time which this film is shown, you see a temperamental landlady, and a very unusual man. The film starts showing the landlady watching television. She hears odd noises in the air vent and goes to investigate. They have a discussion, and after she leaves. She leaves but soon after hears the voices louder. She goes back to the room, but armed with a baseball bat. When she reaches the room she sees the body of the man walk out. She enters the room and sees the man's head lying on the ground. No blood. No gore. The head is fully alive. The end shows the body leaving the apartment building. I thought it was odd at first, but soon thought of it was original. 9/10

Very nice dark fantasy/SciFi vignette
medfair13 February 2005
A short dark fantasy/SciFi vignette. On the background of rental apartments run by a nasty old lady and weird tenants terrified of her wrath, a story of split personality- mind vs body, intellect vs worldly passions, is narrated. The witch landlady armed with a baseball bat, hearing what seems to her as an argument between Roy and a putative illegal sub-tenant in Roy's apartment, trudges upstairs to investigate and threaten Roy. I don't want to spoil your viewing by telling you who wins. Excellent photography (shot through the AC vent!) and nifty special effects. The best feature is creating a dark,if somewhat tongue-in-cheek, atmosphere. The background for opening titles and credits are particularly good and will do well in full-length fantasy movie.I have seen young folks watching it over and over. Definitely worth seeing, especially if you're under twenty five.
two thumbs up

this was a really cool short film, i wish it would have been made into a full length feature, it certainly would have been interesting. my compliments to DANIEL ORON you did a great job with this film. i watched this film over and over again and even recorded it so i could have it on file. the actors you chose to play those characters were outstanding in their performances, and the lighting and special effects made for a eerie feeling kinda film. if DANIEL ORON plans on making this into a full length feature one day, i'm sure you'll have a great audience for it. if he plans to make another film in the same genre it would be fun to be part if it. congrats once again DANIEL, great job.
