So Close, and Yet....
cpeter1337 March 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This is a very well-made short film. It's photographed well, lit well, acted well. The story itself is compelling; a guy meets a beautiful woman at a party (or nightclub, it's a little unclear and totally irrelevant) and after a few drinks and a few lines, they go to his place and engage in R-rated rough sex. So far, so good. The next day, the girl shows up at his apartment, says the same things she did the night before, and more rough sex. It happens again and again, with the guy getting more weirded out each time. It also appears that the girl is missing.

**************************

Spoilers: In a moment that turns everything on its head, the girl returns and the guy screams at her to leave him alone, even rushing her with a knife. Then, out of nowhere, she pulls a gun and shoots him. Two cops enter the apartment to find his freshly-shot corpse and her not-so-fresh corpse in the bedroom. The last shot is the girl's eyes opening. So who's the killer, and who's the victim? And how far out in left field was the gun hidden? As I said, it's very well done. But the ending goes from ambiguous to ridiculous at the speed of a gunshot.
