Short Horror Film - Lates 70's style

downloaded it.
what feedback do you want?
camera use was very nice in the first part inside the house (movement, coloring)...
the moment she's leaving the house something went missing from the tension you've built before.
and also the shots started to have some overblown parts that i personally would avoid by all cost (never never never "burn" highlights when shooting with those digital cameras)..
last thing: maybe it's my taste but the second part of the film had blue lights here and there.. for me it makes the atmosphere a bit staged and therefore less realistic (another reason for the first part of the film being better).
the plot is your plot, a matter of individual taste.

sorry for the blunt words, but you asked for opinion :)
+ now please have a look at "mine" :

Matt and sinapps thanks for the kind words! Skilled it's a QT movie h.264 so if you usually don't have trouble with that this shouldn't be a problem.

roei z in terms of feedback just looking for anything really, people's experience with the story, and also the technical side of it as well. So thanks for yours and let me address a couple of the issues you brought up from what I was thinking while making it.

The tension is broken when she leaves the house I would think as she's taken a position of power... she's told the guy off and is no longer this innocent victim, the way she carries herself is changed too, with her walk becoming purposed and confident, so I think you no longer worry for her safety so there's no tension. The overblown highlights and the blue lighting is a direct reference to the lighting of the period. If you watch any late seventies or even 80's movies, especially in this genre, you'll see that outside light was insanely blue, and that's why it's almost a running joke now, as it was so over used. So you see we had to do it! haha.
