The Hunt for Gollum

Postby blacktears on Mon May 11, 2009 6:43 pm

Any of you watched this independent internet only film yet?

Check it out, it's free to stream:

http://www.thehuntforgollum.com

Considering it only cost £3,000 to make, it looks damn amazing and the acting is not terrible either. Some of this could well be out of one of Peter Jackson's films!

It concerns one of Tolkein appendices, happening before the LOTR story fully begins, concerning Aragorn's search and capture of Gollum. It runs for 40 minutes.

Check out the guy's other Futuristic Thriller - "Human Residue", which is also on line (it's in the links section)

That was pretty cool! I liked how they made it all grainy like the LOTR films, great job!

This guys is going to be making a film for a mates book, seems like a nice and ambitious guy.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

That was pretty impressive! I'm keen to check out 'Human Residue' as well.
