The Wages of Sin- Full Length Short Film

***AN AWARD WINNING FILM*** that takes a disturbing but compelling look at the causes and affects of school shootings. COMMENTS PLEASE!! -His peers humiliated him, his teacher's gave up on him, and now, Jeremiah wants to show them he isn't weak. He wants them to see what it feels like to suffer, but they mustn't just suffer; for the bible says that, 'for the wages of sin is death'.-

Nvm, the video is amazingly well put together, I guess I got caught up with the "I am god" thing, which I don't really relate to school schootings. I take it back, as it's called the wages of sin and it fits, and I didn't think it through. It's really good though.

No dude you have a great point...I feel like I could've focused on the character in a more personal way. I did see Cho's videos and actually he referenced christ and jesus alot in his video's and used christ to justify his behavior...The character is influenced by Cho and others actually...

Would've been more convincing without the religious referances, but I guess it's America.. Really good though

THX1138 is still the greatest student film I think ever made and dude he didn't even consider himself a filmmaker! He said he wanted to make experimental documentaries.

Pretty good. I think if people really followed what Jesus said (Do unto others as you would have them do unto you) the world would be perfect peace. But since people are by nature selfish and we lack the realization of sewing/reaping (call it karma), action/reaction and consequence we lack the foresight in what may result from our cruelty and callousness towards others. Maybe one person could make the difference by just being a friend.

Yeah I mean, if the religious referances were replaced with what for example Cho said (did you see the video he left before the school shooting?) "Do you know what it's like to be humiliated" "Do you know what it's like to have trash shoved down your mouth" etc. You know, emphasize how they're on a mental level so low that they just suffer and see no other option but to kill themselves and so forth
