Cool story, terrible message. Probably produced by big pharma money. Unregulated online pharmaceuticals are almost always just as safe an effective as the the same chemicals made by those who have a monopoly over the industry. The only way pharma companies can increase profits is by keeping people sick (which is risky) and destroying competitors. The regulation being suggested by this propaganda piece is not one to ensure purity or safety of medicine, that type of real regulation is, and has always been, for sale. It is a form of regulation meant to price out and bar competition in the pharmaceutical market.

Standing ovation. I was in need of a SciFi fix and this was perfection. Mostly conversational with very cool special effect used in flashbacks. This short film format is so effective for those film makers who embrace it. Succeeded in posing thought provoking comparisons to our current reality, ie Pharmaceuticals and our proclivity towards various meds/vaccines/performance enhancers.

this is incredible. the plot, the graphics, and above all the script and acting.
there should be full feature films in the style with big budget spending, this short film even though has a minimalist structure has more depth than a lot of movies that make it to box office or major streaming platforms.

With the exposition provided at the end, it felt like this was a movie produced by the pharma companies urging you to stay away from homebrewed solutions and stick with their engineered poisons. I really liked it all until this point. Well produced. Totally engrossed. Well done.

Funny at the end they talk about enforcing the illegal distribution. gee, maybe if ya didn't make it so expensive to get prescribed medications people would have to turn to that. This video kinda feels like it's demonizing that instead of the pharma industry that creates the problem.

The FDA and CDC have been hiding evidence and said they can not show us till 75 years later. They probably create the flu every year just for the money, this showed us they knew exactly what happened and acted like they did not know, very close to real life situations.

Brilliant concept! This has the appearance of having a generous budget. But I think excellent planning and expert resource allocation was most likely employed. You got the most out of VFX and the very few locations you had. Incredible work. This is a masterclass.

Despite any theories the medical personnel had about a rare blood type being involved in the 'deterioration' of the victims, I wouldn't be opening up the faceplate of my sealed armor until after I'd gone through complete decontamination if I were those soldiers.

Yes, indeed. Unscrupulous pharmaceutical companies can in reality get a product to market that is unsafe and dangerous. They can even get governments to allow them to escape prosecution if their product is unsafe!
At least, I've heard that can happen.

Made me stop in the middle and look up how bone is formed. Now I know everything about osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts and how the protein, osteoid, secreted from the osteoblasts, mineralizes into bone. Then continued watching. Good film!

Man, I'm getting a very SCP vibe with scene of the interview and monster cut together like that, and how the the person giving out the explanation said the authority enacted on his plans a tad bit too late. Fantastic job.

The mixture of uncanny valley and back rooms environment in the office created such a good eerie feel that kicks your fight or flight into overdrive. Wow was this a good short!

Doesn't even have a physical camera man and STILL can't hold the goddamn frame steady on an action shot. I can't wait for this Braveheart Battle Camera style to die.

Watching the first few minutes of this is like listening to a book on tape and cutting to 2 seconds of nails on a chalkboard intermediately throughout.

It's sad how you can have these shorts, that probably cost less than $100K to make, be MUCH better than Disney's $200 MILLION dollar dumpster fires.
