I was amazed it was a s short as it is. It may be 50 minutes. Of course my thing is if your short film is 50 minutes long why not shoot a few more scenes and make it a full on feature? |

| I love that the attacks happen with silencers. Definitely something that hadn't been seen before. Actually, I can't remember seeing it since. |

| I wonder if a modern audience would appreciate this type of pacing? |

i don't know, I don't think it would be given the chance. I don't think the marketing dept would know how to advertise this kind of film without making it look like something it wasn't, that would only anger audiences jading their view of the film. |

It would have to be made almost as it was. An independent low budget film that gets word of mouth through festivals or something. |
