This is my second time to watch Nightmare since it came out and it was still interesting. The film is well done, good DP work, nice effects, and the work done by Ashten is top notch. Ashten appears very conscious of the needs of the camera without being conscious, and therefore self-conscious, of it. The time and effort taken with this project shows when one watches other short films that look like they were done with a home video camera. The variance in screen shots contributes to the disorienting effect without disengaging the viewer.
The script was well-written though the imagination behind what I first read brought it to life in a way I had not anticipated. One can easily surmise that great thought and work went into Nightmare before the piece was released. It shows.
Very well done.
