Thanks for the great comments guys!

what does the end mean??? i am so confused...

[ProductionsEnigmatic]

@seacoon11 It's meant to be a recurring nightmare after the victim's experience. He holds the hammer at the end because he had to go through a lot of shit to escape. It also represents the power the attacker still has over him. If you got attacked and had to be brutal to escape your subconscious may think you're the same as them.

Cool. I jumped a little when the guy appeared on the roundabout. I've seen a million torture based shorts like this one.

Normally they don't take the time to establish relatability like you did with the poem, which was refreshing.

Any clue as to the motive of the abduction?

[ProductionsEnigmatic]

@ThePsychwardFilms Thanks for the comment :) We didn't intend to give him motive. It's always more frightening when there isn't one. We might make a longer film with the masked psycho.

2:07 - he's tied to a wheely chair - he could roll to freedom!

@eddieenigma666 Alright, I just encountered this video when looking around for some nice indie films to watch. I decided to drop a comment pointing out what I thought it was lacking, but if you had a three minute time limit it's understandable, however I still think you should've explained his escape.

[eddieenigma666]

@RealmofJocken I made it for a competition with a 3 minute limit, that's the reason why it's so brief. I plan to make more films with the hoody with more development and depth. I've done longer films before now with the content that this one lacks. It was just a 3 minute shocker you know? Maybe a little ambitious for the time limit but at least it introduces the audience to the hoody

[RealmofJocken]

It was okay, however you didn't take the time to develop any characters or give out any details of the story. Everything just sort of happened. What would leave a lot of people confused would be the ending, as you never established that the guy even escaped, nor did you establish that the scene in the end was a recurring nightmare. You just showed him in a field with a hammer.

Next time you should take your time to develop the story, and show more scenes that explain what's going on.
