Christmas Nightmare (2001)
Nightmarishly good
For a low budget direct to video horror film, this was quite good! It actually looks like the people who made this cared about what they were doing. The acting was really good, it reminded me of a low-budget version of The Shining. Definitely worth renting.
Fits & Starts (2002)
The best short film I've ever seen
I was lucky enough to see it at the AFI Fest, and it's by far the best short film ever made. The entire movie is an allegory about the internal struggle of a severed earthworm. The film clearly displays both sides to the now doubled worm- how one side feels free, almost happy that it has freed itself from itself, and the other side is more reserved, and sits more like a passive observer perhaps even thinking "Wow, I didn't know I was capable of splitting into two". The second half misses being a longer, whole earthworm, and can only play xylophone and watch as the other half can sing and dance and feels independent. But in the end, the earthworm, while divided, is still whole... and the two parts, while physically separate, will never become apart. A must for existential nature lovers.
