[i810dumiclovich]

[DanimationMovies]

Wait, wow, Justin looks identical to the guy from Peeping Tom.

[Redplanetlover]

Great video. She was perfect, where do I sign up for more?

[1968joseph1]

nice. the film could have looked more gritty. Would have been good if there was one more twist. But I'm being picky. That was really cool.

[ninjagamer007]

yo that was tight! except for the fact you jacked John Woo's title

[multidylanful]

Hey isnt this the dad in the key of awesome videos!

[MintSoundsNZ]

loving the noir in this :)

[DavidOlney411]

[andyfinlee]

Very nice video. Great job with it, and I can definitely see you guys are maturing in your work, and that is definitely not a bad thing.

[TheNoisemaster]

cool

[movieaddict92]

This short is incredible, and so are the test films from BFX... Why don't you guys send them out to film festivals? From what i've seen so far, you have pretty good chances to get an award to most youth festivals around!

[funniYuki1]

[ryan18245]

amazing short film

[StevenFYWong]

A really good story at just the right length.

[billholio]

everyone should be smoking cigarettes (for film noir)

[DaarkRedeemer]

Very good guys!!! I could see a disco club murder story sort of jersey Shore Noir,the gtl murders,the tanning bed or hair gel thing lol.I'm weird.

[tobi97322]

this is way better then the test flims erick did fo bfx

[FreaksGoInsane]

wow that's cool :D Perfect made, good indie! :D LIke that, and the plot and everything is just the way it should be. Really cool guys! :D

[theindiemachines]

@FreaksGoInsane Aw, thank you! We don't think it was PERFECTLY made, but we tried our best!

[FreaksGoInsane]

@theindiemachines

I know what you mean, of course we do always think we can do better - but sometimes we think that nonperfektion can be perfection or at least just seem like it is in it faultless way - because you are showing a story where there happens a lot of bad things, so by making it a little bit raw you're actually doing it more real. WE like the way you guys made this movie, you should make that into a style for yourselves. Like dogma movies; just to mention an example.

[theindiemachines]

@FreaksGoInsane :) thank you

[MJWinters11]

Really good video! I wish I could've been in it!

[theindiemachines]

@MJWinters11 Haha :D

[MJWinters11]

I have written over thirty different shorts, and even made several parts to those shorts. But I never have any actors, just me... oh well, one day..

[theindiemachines]

@MJWinters11 Move to LA! Actors everywhere :)

[MJWinters11]

@theindiemachines I think I'll do that, I'M MOVING OUT BOYS!!! Goodbye Texas, HELLO CALI!!!... Now I need the money, lol.. One day..

[jnekrep]

This is fantastic! Great work. :)

[theindiemachines]

@jnekrep Many thanks!!!! Please sub and keep up with us

[jamesdierx]

I would take the boiling hot water and throw some noodles in it... and then noodle someone to death! nice work!

[theindiemachines]

@jamesdierx Yummm, noodley death indeed

[hopemoore]

is it sad that I would totally check in somewhere I wasn't, but visit regularly, to show evidence of an alibi?

[theindiemachines]

@hopemoore Hahah --- no --- it means you're prepared and smart!

[MrSamster911]

i would like to solve a murder that looks reminiscent of a study in scarlet

[urlesque]

We loved your video and posted it at Urlesque.com!

[theindiemachines]

@urlesque You guys are AWESOME! Thank you!!!

[legosk8er92]

wow that was a very macabre noir film

[CreaturesInspired]

"I guess I'm the only cop in the city that knows how foursquare works" - Great Cop!

[robertmeikle2]

how did you make it like it was boiling water on the guys face?

[theindiemachines]

@robertmeikle2 Step 1: Heat water

Step 2: pour on face.

But ... just kidding ... just a combination of LOTS of subtle sound effects and some steam stock footage

[MegaBlackDays]

"This was good. You guys did a good job." - The Internet

[theindiemachines]

@MegaBlackDays Thanks The Internet!

[Lankydawg]

Really good job guys, loved the twist! Oldschool indy mogul ftw!

[theindiemachines]

@Lankydawg yeah! Indy mogul!

[rhythm7a]

Well done, look forward to more of these!

[TheScientist0000000]

Isn't he supposed to say something about it tasting like almonds?

[theindiemachines]

@TheScientist0000000 "Yum, almond tea!"

[geena1607]

Loved it. ....... Philip Marlowe meets facebook.. with great film noir style

[theindiemachines]

@geena1607 Wow! "Phillip Marlowe meets facebook" is a GREAT line!! Thanks Geena :D

[geena1607]

Loved it. .......  Philip Marlowe meets facebook..

[theindiemachines]

@geena1607 Ooh, catchy title :D

[JoshW1ll1ams]

Awesome style!

[MsTreasuredChest]

I like it.

[nalts]

Oh shit. A good video on YouTube? What's next? Meeting someone important on 4square?

[theindiemachines]

@nalts I KNOW WTF!! hahah

[skycarl]

Fantastic..... now what next? hehehehehe

[theindiemachines]

@skycarl More ... don't worry

[Blankmage]

This is absolutely awesome. I love it to death. Well done guys! Saw this on SA and I just had to come by and say how much of a breath of fresh air it is to see young filmmakers with good tastes!

Maybe you'll take a look at my own "neo-noir". Our beginning tried to recapture some of the classics like Gloria Graham's character in The Big Heat. It's shot in color though, like Leave Her to Heaven.

Would love your input and I'll definitely be subscribing to your channel!

[theindiemachines]

@Blankmage THANK YOU!!! We really appreciate it - we worked hard on this short and it's nice to see it get a good reception

[danielalfon]

Way to go theindiemachines!

How about revisiting famous detective stories and adding a social media twist? The possibilities are endless...

[waterlooinanywhere]

Amazing, guys!

[BobbyMiller]

Definitely one of your best shorts...KEEP THEM COMING.

[theindiemachines]

@BobbyMiller MORE SHORTS SOON BRO

[ylimenitram]

kinda sounds like Bob Saget is narrating, lol.

[theindiemachines]

@ylimenitram needs more funniest home vids

[alexkfridges]

that was incredible. and serioulsy. put this sort of stuff on the indy mogul channel so everyone can see it!

[MitenSoni]

If bobby saw the tea bashing i think he'd be upset

[theindiemachines]

@MitenSoni LOL - good point!

[BobbyMiller]

@theindiemachines I have seen it...AND IM LIVID!!!!!

[MitenSoni]

ok, now that was awesome

[dirtyducktape]

amazing!!

[granduelist]

That was pretty brutal.

[justanotheraccount]

Awesome! :D

[agtheking]

Water-boarding the actor. That's what I call dedication to the arts!

[indymogul]

@agtheking He was a TROOPER!

[RockSoka17]

that was awsome

[EudaimoniaProduction]

I like the "high tech" lingo in the noir genre.

[indymogul]

@EudaimoniaProduction Yeah! Thanks!

[EnvelopeGenerator]

The shot of the guy drowning in the bathtub is nothing short of genius.

[studio9011]

wow i didn't know you guys had that dark side for a film inside ya

[cheabman97]

@studio9011 there is a quote in your movie from law abiding citizen, 2:37

[theindiemachines]

I'd like to solve all crimes involving puppies. Because puppies are awesome, but when they commit crimes, they should go to jail.
