Couldn't happen to a more deserving psycho.
Killing himself, as the narcissism was strong in this one, was the only logical step he could take.
Superbly acted, there's no other way to put it.
The actor portrayed the character perfectly and made it so easy to loathe him in the opening minutes.
He made me invest hatred towards a fictional individual.
Kudos to him and everyone else involved. Everyone should be proud of their contribution!
Thanks for posting.

Whoa that was mind blowing (in more ways than one. Bravo!
Phenomenal performance by the lead actor. Standing ovation!
The plot is entirely consistent with a possible future where the excesses of social media are even more extreme than they are now.

This guy is a terrible shot. Square in the chest from 50ft using a rifle If he got him square in the chest from 400yds or so I might be impressed.
Even 50ft with a handgun wouldn't be impressive.

reply

We've all seen the trope of people hunting each other for sport, including in sci-fi settings, but this is the evolution of that. A brilliant concept that seems terrifyingly feasible.
reply

Unlike a lot of these videos I've been watching this one actually had a bit of a story line and a real ending everyone could understand. We need more of that.
reply

Honestly, I don't think the cracked faceplate was the reason he got infected. It was probably the VENTS in the DOT certified MOTORCYCLE helmet he was wearing.
reply

There is so much competition in the sci-fi short film world. Every contribution is judged against thousands of preceding entries. It's a tough field.
reply

Dood - really poor. What the 773H is he doing wearing motorcycle gear on Proxima anything Stoopit. Didn't even finish watching this lame crap.
reply

Don't hide behind a tree from a bear they are related to dogs and have a wild sense of smell. I know it was a commercial, but, just don't.
reply

This short film shows truefully the dark bottom of our soul. The only bright spot is the consequense that the hunter shoots himself
reply

It does a great job of depicting the narcissism of streamers and social media types and how much they value their online image.
reply

If one only wouldn't be able to see the sky through the gap between the helmet and the neck. Too many if's in that statement!
reply

I like the tendency of more and more sc-fi shorts out there looking like a new Black Mirror episode. Great acting too.
reply

I find it amusing that the DOT will still be responsible for helmet standards even when we can travel light years away
reply

This is horrible. motorcycle helmet Motocross padding Nerf guns and a DJI mavic pro.
I expected more from dust

reply

Forgot to remove the DOT sign from the helmet. I mean, really That helmet is exactly a motorcycle hepmet made by BELL.
reply

I see totally this Americans doing on Mexican border in future, after right wingers establish themselves on power.
reply

the ideas and concepts that’s come out on these videos is something hollywood could take notes from
reply

I made it halfway, that’s four minutes of my life lost that I’ll regret for the rest of my days!
reply

What a bunch of hostile scumbags especially the lieutenant and the detective. The security guy was fair.
reply

They say that distance makes the heart grow fonder. that does not apply to miscreant psychopaths.
reply

Always love a happy ending.
Would have been a nice twist if all of the hunted were once hunters.

reply

Love the DOT approved environmental protection helmet,
Really good short as always!

reply

Yawn - I predicted the outcome in the first 2 minutes. The hunter becomes the hunted.
reply

6: 05 well thats what you get for cutting corners and using 1970, s plexiglass!
reply

How many of us were OK with the character killing himself (everyone raises their hand)
reply

I'm more interested to know more about the clearly non-feral people he murdered
reply

Not on earth At 1: 22 there is a car driving down a highway in the backround. Hahahaha
reply

Decided the guy was a Psychopath at minute 2, Psychopathy confirmed at minute 7.
reply

At 1: 21 black SUV seen on the road below. this could very well be. Men in Black
reply

square in the chest from 50 feet away. You think that's a big deal little girl
reply

That was so good! Tyler was annoying AF, and I didn't feel bad for him one bit.
reply

Excellent way to break the record, couldn't have happened to a less pleasant guy
reply

chances are there is one streamer right now about to lose their life from twitch
reply

They could have at least peeled the DOT sticker off the back of the helmet.
