The Backwater Gospel

Bachelor film project 2011 from The Animation Workshop.

As long as anyone can remember, the coming of The Undertaker has meant the coming of death. Until one day the grim promise fails and tension builds as the God fearing townsfolk of Backwater wait for someone to die

The soundtrack has been released as a free EP, which can be found here: http://sonsofperdition.com/index.php?id=51.

can someone explain?

[blujae1011]

It's funny how they were too afraid to leave their houses, then end up killing each other...

@KyleSantin

It reminds me of Tull from the Gunslinger, too. I just read that book again.

Except in this case, the outsider wasn't the one who did the killing... Other than that, it's pretty much identical.
