I really enjoyed that they set up a good atmosphere for the entire short. My only knock on it would be the ending I saw from a mile away. Still fantastic though!

Yeah, definitely liked The Insane...it's one of those shorts that can definitely be stretched out into a full feature! I'm thinking Danny Boyle to direct!
