"I see big alien claw, now I'm going to run into this dark hole...."

This was probably made for the budget most Hollywood Movies spend on disposable coffee cups, good work.

2094 and people are still climbing into unknown caves alone. Man is doomed.

2094 and you still can't get a decent flashlight.

let me get this right. I am on Mars. one of my rovers is destroyed by unknown means. my second rover disappears in a cave. I go in the cave?

Despite the negative reviews from the critics who were comparing this to... what, a Spielberg film? I thought you guys did a nice job with a limited budget and a lot of enthusiasm. This little 10-minute film probably took weeks, if not months, of script prep, several days of shooting and a huge amount of post-production/editing, and it looks like maybe a handful of people took on the burdens. Yeah, sure, some of the "gotcha" comments did catch a few errors and misses, but those should be meant and taken constructively. Keep at it and improve as you go. Kudos.

That was so well done. You combined the environmental realism of The Martian with the chill factor of The Descent, yet with a much higher degree of subtlety int he latter. All it took for my anxiety level to go from 'maybe this isn't a good idea' to 'GET OUT GET OUT' were the words preservation mode. I would kill to see a feature length version of this.

when he saw the organic substance, it already a reason to head back and return to earth and come back with the heavy weapon.

That was a pretty good short. Even though he broke the cardinal rule. NEVER GO INTO THE SCARY CAVE.
-
One of the better short films Ive seen.And that was a damn good beer.Rock on!
-
When 10 minutes feels like just 1 because you are completely absorbed by what you are watching... AWESOME job here guys - beyond brilliant.
-
Loved the premise, it makes a good "short." Leaves the audience with the unsettled feeling, yet the captivation is enough for desire for more shorts (continuing a series.) I hope this is something you build upon with more quick stories. Keep up the great work, even if you don't continue this particular story. If you do continue it: make about 5 more parts (shorts) that seem to be different, while making a full movie... those shorts make small parts within. Have fun and good luck
