At 3:38pm on June 20, 2008, Brian L Porter said…: Hi Marc,

That's one hell of a trailer and looks like a brilliant short movie. It's a superb hook. I've been a fan of Ray Harryhausen since the days of Jason and the Argonauts /Golden Fleece etc. Well done on a superb piece of work. I only hopeone day someone makes a movie of 'A Studyin Red' and turns into something as equally chilling as The Pit and the Pendulum.

Best regards

Brian

BTW my favorite Harryhausen film was "Mysterious Island". I often liken my midi setup to the pipe organ on Nemo's submarine in that film.
I'm also a fan of Quay Brothers, Aardman.
