Blood Thirsty Killaz - ZazaCast Films

Zaza, you have come SOOOOOOO far. This was good...I think your best so far. The actors were spot on for the tone of this piece. The writing was clever with its homage to Dirty Harry. You've got me looking forward to what you do next.

You should definitely be proud of this.

Thanks Richard... glad you enjoyed it. I finally was able to get my car in a film. It looks nice, but it sounds great. That was the natural sound off the camera mic as the car drove by....first time I've ever let anyone else drive my car....ever.:laugh:

This was fun Zaza! was every line a clint eastwood line? clever concept. I really liked the lightning of the guy with cigar at the table. Some great color correction and then some shots (like the car driving off at the end) i thought needed a more saturated CC look to match the rest. But cool stuff, and i liked the music too. Was that an original song for this short film? Oh and the actors were over the top and fun and purposefully so, so kudos to them.

Thanks. Yes, he was a Clint freak and most lines are from a film or two, thought it would be fun. Thanks too for the technical comments, these are the helpful parts that help you learn. I'm just downloading now, so be looking for comments on your thread.

That means a lot Blaine...thanks. I'm working on it...I'm working on it.:Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)
 
Mopar!!! :beer: I love that car, Joe...

Very nice job. Simple story and it was told well. Looked great too, lighting-wise and the sound was spot on.

Big thumbs up... :thumbsup:
 
This one cracked me up, particularly the introduction. Felt straight out of some 80s cartoon action flick (A-team, Knight Rider, etc). The main guys voice was great.

Thanks Tom...now if you look close at the stacks of bills on the table (when Brut dies), you'll see I used the 100 dollar bill you made with your face on it! We finally got to work together! LOL! :laugh:

Excellent....that's the feel I was going for on the intro. Lou did a great job, having never acted before, he took direction well. Thanks for watching.
 
Funny stuff. Lots of manipulated quotes in this one. :)
Rex was great, he played the part really well. Loved the look and feel of the whole thing and it was pretty engrossing. Nitpicks: Would have liked to see that car really peel out after the robbery though.
Lone car in the end would have been cooler too.

Nice job. I really enjoyed it.

This felt like an homage piece. Really liked that you set it in modern times. The opening was great. Nice look overall. I didn't quite get the backstory of the two characters, but maybe that didn't matter. Overall a well done film. I think your last film was more "artistic" but this had more commercial appeal. Good job.
 
Man, you are doin' the dang thing! You are really stepping your game up, up and up! You really had some great stuff in here. The dissolves at the card game, all the quotes, the car and that shot at the end was great. I agree with MAH though - a lone shot of the car traveling down that long street at the end would have been just perfect.

I thought the lead was great, but the other actor's opening lines just seemed a little off. Like he was trying to project his voice for the mic or something. IDK. Anyway, he did better after that and it all came together nicely with lots of style. Good job, man. Really good job!!!
 
I like the opening part, and the music.

I do miss some sounds when the guy prepares him.... But that's maybe me...

The "typical american accent".... I like it. In a way it's "funny" to me...but don't take the "funny" to litterary... It's 'funny" like... cool

Maybe some sound of smashing money ? Because in a way it's not un-important...the money
 
A lot of laughs in this one - one of the few I've watched multiple times. Lead actor was hilarious, and clearly relishing his line deliveries. It's really clear when the actors are having fun, and that translates big time. I wish that there was a little more forward momentum in the second half - mainly because the first felt so beautifully paced.

As others have said, you definitely stepped up the game in this fest.
 
Zaza! Cool film. Reminds me of why these fests are so cool when you get lots of variety in style and vision. You've got some really good stuff going on with your shots and lighting. Funny story which your actors did a good job of bringing to life. Love the Eastwood stuff!

Always a blast watching your films man. Glad you were in this time. Great work!
 
Zaza: you're ****ing insane. Now I'm really starting to think you make these films just to have a hell of a lot of fun and share it with us. Clint Eastwood One-Liners? Seriously? A rollicking good time and thanks for the laughs. If anyone takes this film too seriously, pull out one of the one liners and that will show em.
What you waiting for Punk?

Oh wow! :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

I forgot I did that way back... :2vrolijk_08:
 
I'm kinda surprised no one's mentioned the "dead man's hand." Or was it just too obvious to mention? :Drogar-Happy(DBG):
