Hopefully you'll see The Flying Man on theaters soon enough! Meanwhile you can always check my channel for other shorts.
'The Flying Man' has a retro feel (especially since flying is apparently one of his many abilities; this feels slightly like Zack Snyder) that contrasts nicely with the realistic physics in your depiction of violence. It looks SO GOOD...only thing that sticks out to me is that all the world's governments would have been alerted by the end of his first exposé on the news and they'd have done everything in their power to contain this guy.

Oh my god please do something with this it is incredible, if you had the proper amount of funing i am sure you could make a great movie with this, you have so kuch potential!
I love the idea of Superhero story which is told from perspective of your average person who see him or the criminals he hunts and little is actually reviled about the Superhero's nature and nothing about his identity is reviled. It adds a strong sense mystery, wonder, and foreboding of watching a demigod act on his own morality and not subject to any kind of authority, and no one can stop him.
*Not trolling, just letting you know it is revealed instead of reviled. I'd like to see a story of the type you described, that could make a good movie if it is done right.

This perfectly illustrates the difference between Hero and Vigilante. The Hero saves lives. The Vigilante ends them. That aside, how dafuq am I only seeing this now?
Your statement is sadly incorrect. A hero is someone who helps others for no greater purpose than they believe it’s the right thing to do but they do so within the law. A vigilante does the same but ignores the law. To put it in perspective Batman is a vigilante commissioner Gordon is a hero
I feel your statement of what a hero is contradicts what you say about Batman, he combats evil night after night in the name of justice and to protect life, he seeks to make sure no one would have to go through the pain that he went through with his parents. Batman is just as a hero as someone like superman. I feel a lot of people misunderstand him for a anti hero just because hes mean a lot of the time. I wouldn't say he's the same as Superman, he uses fear and intimidation to stop the criminals, where as Superman is a beacon of hope and only uses force when necessary. Another thing is that theres a difference between anti hero and vigilantism. Being a vigilante is being some who fights crime or acts to enforce justice outside of the law and usually enacts on their own morals, Superman or even spiderman are technically vigilantes, Batman can also be classified as one, but he would be more of a consultant to the police cus he constantly works with cops and Commissioner Gordon. An anti hero would be a vigilante that has no set line or morality. Batman had a rule of never killing, a rule so cemented in his mind that unless the universe is at steak and there's no other way, he won't do it. But someone like Deadpool or the Punisher would definitely be anti hero's, men with no line holding them back, sure they fight criminals, but the way they do it is morally incorrect. And anti hero's are usually more uncontrollable and chaotic, and will complete their goal by any means necessary.

I remember watching this seven years ago & I was stoked about seeing it then, WHY hasn't Hollywood or someone made this into a full-length big-budget movie??? It wasn't just the flying man aspect, these people act really well.
Hollywood is too busy regurgitating super hero remakes and Tom Cruise BS.Old boys club thinks the actor sells tickets. What makes this so good is the "unknown" fresh faces. Just like GOT and Breaking Bad, etc. More believable than seeing the same old Clooney club.
It's such an awesome concept. A superhero film from the point of view of the petty criminals he's tormenting. It's like some kind of reverse slasher film. The hero is stalking the villains.
Green T Awesome. I hope Todd actually get's around to filming it. POV from the criminals and the detectives (Same and Twitch) investigating it. Low budget, can't got wrong.
I love how this story is framed from the perspective of society actually discovering a superhero for the first time. The trappings of news footage and police reports gave it an intriguing edge that I'd love to see more of. Great job on this!
@@rocketman3776 first answer my question...are you simply attempting to be sarcastic towards my comment, or actually asking because you are indeed interested to know what I meant.
Man that was amazing. How has no one picked this up even for Netflix or something? This reminds me of first season of Heroes when it was good. Great atmosphere, dialog, acting, cinematography, characters, sound, music - everything.
It is so simple. The Flying Man heard what the protagonist was saying, that he wanted to quit, and was only doing this to get money for some family problem, and so he spared him. When he appears at the end, it is as a warning never to break the law again, because he'll be watching.
+waltereg0 No. That doesn't really work. How do you know that all of the people he killed were not planning to quit, even if they didn't say anything. Not to mention that it is my opinion that all mobsters seem to be planning to quit and retire, but never get around to it. And its pretty likely that he is there to kill the guy in the end, regardless of what he was saying. The people he is killing aren't even murderers. he is basically killing anyone who has broken any kind of law.Which means no one is safe.
+waltereg0 +GianCork +Lollipopfop Description says: "it's on his terms" don't sweat it too much, folks. if you were a "what seems to be an indestructible superhero" nowadays, you'd probably do it on your own terms, too. 'Cause I would.
@@theDigited I cannot believe I forgot about Hancock. Hmmm...you are right...he was a flying man...but story line is different. In Hancock the story was more focused on Will Smith. In this UA-cam short film is more focused on the criminals...I almost felt sorry for the guy who survived.
If it remains mysterious, grim, vague and dark, almost like reading one of the original Robert E Howard Conan books or the Crow movie. In other words, if disney and other similarly untalented douchebags stay away from it. Then it would have great potential.

Nathan L. Nathan L. Same here but somehow it was familiar... Then I kept watching and remember I already seen it a long time ago... So glad it has millions of views causes this short is cool... My best guess is that this guy is inspired by Green Arrow... Which was made after Green Arrow aired on the CW... He was also called a vigilante and did killed his victims... "U have failed this city" ... But this isn't a hero... He's a killer, an anti-hero... Why? Well ..."If u kill a bad guy, a killer what does it make u?"...
In the "Brightburn" universe, this guy would be more like their version of Superman's General Zod. You know - the good guys in the comic book universe are the bad guys in the Brightburn one, so the bad guys in the comics are Brightburn's good guys.
Too hard to make a feature-length movie about something like this. This works perfectly as a short. Maybe if this was a Twilight Zone episode you could expand the storyline a bit. Otherwise, 1.5 hours of this would really drag out.
Just like most, I’d love to see a continuation of the saga. Th Flying Man turns out to be a real Flying Man and he has never stopped . The MSM just stopped reporting .
@@jadenbryant9283 it would be cool if he just monster just visit earth but decide "Yo this planet ain't chill, I will save them" after discover the dark secret of earth society and proceed to be vigilante
Wow, this is incredibly polished for a independent film. The direction is great, the special effects are better than most hollywood crap these days, and most important of all the story is intriguing. Keep up the amazing work and good luck on making this into a full feature film!
I really do like this film, it asks the question other Super Hero filmes don't really take a time to look at. What would the effect of a Super Vigilante be on our society? No, not a superhero, a Vigilante, with superpowers, a super human force that takes the law into its own hands, that the law can't stop. How will people react, how will the world react. I think this film does a good job showing that, in direct and subtle ways. That's why you never really see the 'hero' has anything human, as an idenity, because they are not the point, the effect of their existence is the whole point of the story.
Nick Dzink "He'd be taken off the skies the next day IRL." Two points... 1) IRL it's not possible. 2) Assuming this character has superman-level abilities, no government in the world and no combination of governments could do a single thing to stop him. Seriously, what do you do to a guy that shrugs of depleted uranium rounds and doesn't even get his hair mussed by high explosives? Someone who can stroll away from a nuke like it wasn't happening? At that level of power all you can do is hope he's a nice person, or you're fucked.
Nick Dzink Seriously, what makes you think they haven't tried? Take note the fact that he killed those guys by crashing down onto their car and be ramming into the next one, basically means this guy is invulnerable. Also with all the guys he killed, all those criminals, you think that none of them shot at him?
Wow..please hope this is made into a movie! 10 mins of mystery, goosebumps, and intrigue all in one..I think the guy was spared cause he had a conscience and the flying man has a bigger agenda for him..this film would be EPIC!!
Neat how the perspective was from the criminals and normal people. I can see how people can feel uneasy of a super hero like that as they know nothing of his past and motives etc... Awesome video!
I'm just seeing this and I thought it was a new movie trailer at first. This should be made into a new hero tv series I'd definitely watch it, great work sir!!
***** Chronicle wasn't from the perspective of the citizens. It was filmed in found footage style and the camera belonged to Andrew so the audience is forced to see the movie through his perspective.
I hope the creators of this video are successful in movie making or similar fields. The story telling, the cinematography, script, everything about this is top quality.
Wow! I thought this was a trailer till I saw it was 9 min long. It really sucked me in and kept me engaged! This short would make a seriously badass movie for sure!!!!!
I honestly thought I was watching an official movie trailer and then I wondered if I had secretly found a pirated movie... That's how freaking good your short film was!!! Would love to help with any future projects you have!
Dude this was so sick. I feel like this is the most realistic take we've gotten in cinema of the chaos and sheer wonder we would have at seeing someone or something like this. This was so badass.
Man i just had this come up in my feed and i was seriously hooked. The tension and delivery was amazing. So wish this was just a trailer and the full movie was coming out next year! Seriously guys, go talk to netflix and get a budget to do it your way. Fantastic

@@mcflufferkins that makes sense but I’m still sus, you his time travelling homie trying to cover for him?😂😂💀
This perfectly illustrates the difference between Hero and Vigilante.
The Hero saves lives.
The Vigilante ends them.
That aside, how dafuq am I only seeing this now?
Your statement is sadly incorrect. A hero is someone who helps others for no greater purpose than they believe it’s the right thing to do but they do so within the law. A vigilante does the same but ignores the law. To put it in perspective Batman is a vigilante commissioner Gordon is a hero
@@arken1419 Generally the common moral law of the time.
It's called Street Justice ~Twisted Sister
@@arken1419sooo... anti-hero
I feel your statement of what a hero is contradicts what you say about Batman, he combats evil night after night in the name of justice and to protect life, he seeks to make sure no one would have to go through the pain that he went through with his parents. Batman is just as a hero as someone like superman. I feel a lot of people misunderstand him for a anti hero just because hes mean a lot of the time. I wouldn't say he's the same as Superman, he uses fear and intimidation to stop the criminals, where as Superman is a beacon of hope and only uses force when necessary. Another thing is that theres a difference between anti hero and vigilantism. Being a vigilante is being some who fights crime or acts to enforce justice outside of the law and usually enacts on their own morals, Superman or even spiderman are technically vigilantes, Batman can also be classified as one, but he would be more of a consultant to the police cus he constantly works with cops and Commissioner Gordon. An anti hero would be a vigilante that has no set line or morality. Batman had a rule of never killing, a rule so cemented in his mind that unless the universe is at steak and there's no other way, he won't do it. But someone like Deadpool or the Punisher would definitely be anti hero's, men with no line holding them back, sure they fight criminals, but the way they do it is morally incorrect. And anti hero's are usually more uncontrollable and chaotic, and will complete their goal by any means necessary.
I'm intrigued.. It's definitely a step in the right direction of providing movies that are entertaining and thought provoking. Great work!
+Bloody Axe Sony Pictures just bought the 'Flying Man' rights and they will work on a movie
+Vanessa Klinger I agree. More movies that provoke thought is a good thing.
+Jerry Roberts This sort of reminds me of the movie John Doe.
+minimonkeyplay moo
.
+NotTrollin I had Death Note in mind the entire time too XD but its an interesting take on the concept
This was actually worth the 9 minutes and 21 seconds of my life. You guys did a wonderful job. Look forward to seeing more.
It's 2023 back rewatching,this incredible short movie.

Have a Nice day God be with you all in Jesus name Amen.
Now Begin to read that bible and pray God love you and he want you to live with him in heaven please come to him please.God love you and I do
@@jerusalemomoregie6605 what is this?
Hey DM, what happened to your channel, why dont you upload any more?
Yor in love with this short i think yor looking for a heart from this guy but live in the real world
I remember watching this seven years ago & I was stoked about seeing it then, WHY hasn't Hollywood or someone made this into a full-length big-budget movie??? It wasn't just the flying man aspect, these people act really well.
Hollywood is too busy regurgitating super hero remakes and Tom Cruise BS.Old boys club thinks the actor sells tickets. What makes this so good is the "unknown" fresh faces. Just like GOT and Breaking Bad, etc. More believable than seeing the same old Clooney club.
Because this is more of a underground concept.
Godzilla x Kong got you so mad lol @@timkelly1050
You don't want Hollywood anywhere near this.
Hancock with will Smith
Damn, dude, you need to go the way of Lights Out and make a full on movie. This was superb!
I second this. We need more original "superhero" movies.
Jared Beilstein is the best
It's such an awesome concept. A superhero film from the point of view of the petty criminals he's tormenting. It's like some kind of reverse slasher film. The hero is stalking the villains.
The spawn remake will also be from the criminals perspective, can't wait
Green T Awesome. I hope Todd actually get's around to filming it. POV from the criminals and the detectives (Same and Twitch) investigating it. Low budget, can't got wrong.
I love how this story is framed from the perspective of society actually discovering a superhero for the first time. The trappings of news footage and police reports gave it an intriguing edge that I'd love to see more of. Great job on this!
One of the BEST short films. The Flying Man should become a full length movie. I want more!!
It is really good, but the plot isn't all that original.
PNathan what movie today is?
ME TOO BRO
It’s the move hancock
Steven *hearts* Techno. Right they should make this a movie
Not sure why this popped up now but it was amazing. Love it when UA-cam actually recommends something good.
3 A-Holes there probably planning some hoax false flag flying alien thing event so UA-cam’s warning us up
6 years later, and I still want either a full length movie, or a Netflix Original Series.
Yes ... seriously this is the kind of material that gives people hope.
lalalalalaimrightyourwrong hope for what?
@@rocketman3776 first answer my question...are you simply attempting to be sarcastic towards my comment, or actually asking because you are indeed interested to know what I meant.
You and me both 😉
Exactly
The algorithm finally threw me this bone 10 years later lol
and it just ended when it got so interesting, hope this becomes a series or get picked up by a big company. kudos to all who worked on it.
It's owned by Sony Pictures now.
@@nicksmyth8531 I wonder if they are ever going to produce a full-length movie though
I think it did brightburn makers maybe which i think sony has the rights
@@nicksmyth8531 They need to get off their butt and do something with it!
@@victorialadybug1 Haha I wish it was up to me 🤷
The chubby guy in the passenger has superpowers too, he was able to read the newspaper in the dark
XD
🤣🤣🤣🤣 im dead. That made my day😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow
LOL
That was AMAZING!!!!! You have managed to captivate more in 9 minutes than most movies fail to in 2 hours plus.
Dylan Taylor but is is really difficult for a movie to be captivating when it's already lasted for half an hour
Liam Davies I don't know the lion king was pretty captivating
Stop watching shitty movies then.
I have to agree with you but you over reacted bro, js.
I think "I have to agree with you but" just got triggered...
Man that was amazing. How has no one picked this up even for Netflix or something? This reminds me of first season of Heroes when it was good. Great atmosphere, dialog, acting, cinematography, characters, sound, music - everything.
I am deeply unsatisfied after watching this short film. I NEED MORE.
Julian D lol
Agreed. The ending was, dare I say, for the Birds.
Julian D
Julian D me too
Thats what she said
now this has all the makings of a badass movie.
It is so simple. The Flying Man heard what the protagonist was saying, that he wanted to quit, and was only doing this to get money for some family problem, and so he spared him. When he appears at the end, it is as a warning never to break the law again, because he'll be watching.
+waltereg0 No. That doesn't really work. How do you know that all of the people he killed were not planning to quit, even if they didn't say anything. Not to mention that it is my opinion that all mobsters seem to be planning to quit and retire, but never get around to it. And its pretty likely that he is there to kill the guy in the end, regardless of what he was saying. The people he is killing aren't even murderers. he is basically killing anyone who has broken any kind of law.Which means no one is safe.
+waltereg0 ORRRR>... he tore his ass apart.
+waltereg0 .....and if the tattoo and the Flying man were connected..?
+waltereg0 +GianCork +Lollipopfop Description says: "it's on his terms"
don't sweat it too much, folks. if you were a "what seems to be an indestructible superhero" nowadays, you'd probably do it on your own terms, too. 'Cause I would.
+waltereg0 non sense i just think that the flying man had a crush on him because he is kinda cute....
This is actually short film that I love.
You see peeps, you don't need so much VFX if you just make the story right
This needs to be made into a full movie.
It did. Chronicle
Bettter than Marvel
I'm wishing for a series.
Really a full movie so some idiot puts uploads of flying men and movie well Superman and other of flying hero's already made
I agree.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to INSIST that you guys make more of this.
Seriously, this needs to be a series, or a full movie...SOMETHING!!
Here here

I agree kind of pissed it ended hahah
This would be a big HIT if it was an actual movie.
It was an actual movie, called Hancock.
@@theDigited I cannot believe I forgot about Hancock. Hmmm...you are right...he was a flying man...but story line is different. In Hancock the story was more focused on Will Smith. In this UA-cam short film is more focused on the criminals...I almost felt sorry for the guy who survived.
EZhel You’re wrong. Hancock sucked! This looks interesting!
Louis Brugnoni hancock was decent, the angel plot towards the end kinda made it boring
If it remains mysterious, grim, vague and dark, almost like reading one of the original Robert E Howard Conan books or the Crow movie. In other words, if disney and other similarly untalented douchebags stay away from it. Then it would have great potential.
“Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!"
I thought this was a movie trailer for the first 5 minutes
No, I am just seeing it too. How weird.
Me too! 😶

Nathan L. Nathan L. Same here but somehow it was familiar... Then I kept watching and remember I already seen it a long time ago... So glad it has millions of views causes this short is cool... My best guess is that this guy is inspired by Green Arrow... Which was made after Green Arrow aired on the CW... He was also called a vigilante and did killed his victims... "U have failed this city" ... But this isn't a hero... He's a killer, an anti-hero... Why? Well ..."If u kill a bad guy, a killer what does it make u?"...
The flying man is actually kind of creepy, but really kool too. Awesome "superhero" story!
more of a villian
Anti hero I mean
Ya.. But is he real? I find this really creepy...
I think I got his origins. ithappened on a trans atlantic flight. the plane disappeared, he went unconscioius temporarily
+Kimberly Hansen no way
Every few years I come back to this video. One of my favorites on UA-cam.
Imagine waking up, in a regular day,picking your phone up, and realizing that the first super human was trullly discivered
This needs to be a Netflix series seriously get this shit to their executives the concept is great
Yeah, I would watch it.
Yeah!
Someone call Oprah... she has all the money and could make the movie or tv show!
i second that
Nah. Netflix just ruin shit that they touch.
I guess "Brightburn" has grown up now
In the "Brightburn" universe, this guy would be more like their version of Superman's General Zod. You know - the good guys in the comic book universe are the bad guys in the Brightburn one, so the bad guys in the comics are Brightburn's good guys.
This film was actually made years before Brightburn, but both properties are now owned by Sony Pictures.
I like brightburns mask thou it looks like cethulu
He looks sooo powerfull like soooo cool
@@madg620 scarecrow in Batman... LoL
J.J. Abrams's heart is pumping a little faster. More, please!
Let’s hope cardiac arrest is quick? 🤨
Yeah
why is this popping up in my feed 11 years later???
So, basically Superman with the mindset of the Punisher from the POV of Muggles... Daddy likes it !
Daddy likes it... until the Flying Man comes for him for some unpaid speeding tickets.
@@draconis3606 Nah, more like for riding my bicycle without an helmet lol
@@Kaito57 Oh, you wicked villain... ;-)
erm
so Brightburn?
Saw this when it first released way back in 2013... this was the true progenitor of the gritty/ violent/ real-world superhero genre that we see today!
Damn right! 🔥
what is it called
I would love to see this as a film.
fido me to
It's just been announced that Sony's planning on turning this into a feature film, so technically, your wish has been granted. :)
Down with Sony and all its baloney.
me to
fido IP
This is so awesome! i would watch this! Please make the full film!
Just popped up in my feed. It’s November 2019. Thought this was a trailer for a real movie!
same here
fk i was going to find it and watch it...Looks awesome. It can not end thius way......................lol
Same.. i want more!
It's been released , you can find it on azm.to but tbh its a load of shite so save the effort. b grade bollox
Mee too ^^
THE PEOPLE OF EARTH DESERVE THIS TO BE A SERIES OR AT VERY LEAST A MOVIE.
I agree
Yes
Agree, add well known A list actors and it be a hit!
I am with you on this one
Ww don't need no A List actors.
Give fresh talent a chance LOL
would totally watch a full lengh of this
2024 watching for the first time. This was awesome!
Five years later and there still hasn't been anything like this in movies or on TV. I would run out and see this on opening night. Please make it.
Yeah its hard to find movies like these,youtube movies out due movies in theaters
The series Death Note is pretty much the same story as this.
Too hard to make a feature-length movie about something like this. This works perfectly as a short. Maybe if this was a Twilight Zone episode you could expand the storyline a bit. Otherwise, 1.5 hours of this would really drag out.
It''s better than all the action movies on the silver screen in the last 20 years combined.
Hancock
Just like most, I’d love to see a continuation of the saga. Th Flying Man turns out to be a real Flying Man and he has never stopped . The MSM just stopped reporting .
what was his origin aswell is he human and can turn into monster or is he just a flying man
@@jadenbryant9283 it would be cool if he just monster just visit earth but decide "Yo this planet ain't chill, I will save them" after discover the dark secret of earth society and proceed to be vigilante
Wow, this is incredibly polished for a independent film. The direction is great, the special effects are better than most hollywood crap these days, and most important of all the story is intriguing. Keep up the amazing work and good luck on making this into a full feature film!
The production of this now 11 year old short film was just so good. Dude, why isn't this a movie?
I really do like this film, it asks the question other Super Hero filmes don't really take a time to look at. What would the effect of a Super Vigilante be on our society? No, not a superhero, a Vigilante, with superpowers, a super human force that takes the law into its own hands, that the law can't stop. How will people react, how will the world react. I think this film does a good job showing that, in direct and subtle ways.
That's why you never really see the 'hero' has anything human, as an idenity, because they are not the point, the effect of their existence is the whole point of the story.
at first i was thinking "thats exactly what the dark knight trilogy did" but to be fair, batman doesnt have superpowers, so its not quite the same.
Bad job actually. For many reasons believe me. He'd be taken off the skies the next day IRL.
Nick Dzink "He'd be taken off the skies the next day IRL."
Two points...
1) IRL it's not possible.
2) Assuming this character has superman-level abilities, no government in the world and no combination of governments could do a single thing to stop him.
Seriously, what do you do to a guy that shrugs of depleted uranium rounds and doesn't even get his hair mussed by high explosives? Someone who can stroll away from a nuke like it wasn't happening? At that level of power all you can do is hope he's a nice person, or you're fucked.
Nick Dzink Seriously, what makes you think they haven't tried? Take note the fact that he killed those guys by crashing down onto their car and be ramming into the next one, basically means this guy is invulnerable. Also with all the guys he killed, all those criminals, you think that none of them shot at him?
***** i dont care what people say, Man of Steel was awesome. it wasnt like the comics? GOOD. superman sucks in the comics.
Wow..please hope this is made into a movie! 10 mins of mystery, goosebumps, and intrigue all in one..I think the guy was spared cause he had a conscience and the flying man has a bigger agenda for him..this film would be EPIC!!
Neat how the perspective was from the criminals and normal people. I can see how people can feel uneasy of a super hero like that as they know nothing of his past and motives etc... Awesome video!
how is this 11 years old and im just now seeing this. didnt understand the end but it was sick to watch. good job
Drops a bad guy in front of a train. Excellent.
Yeah I love how he is so violent. Like once he has come, there's no escape. He is someone so powerful. So scary and unpredictable, I love it
that's how you make a statement.
+conrad marshall
yes; sashimi order is ready for table two
Just like Homelander
I'm just seeing this and I thought it was a new movie trailer at first. This should be made into a new hero tv series I'd definitely watch it, great work sir!!
Mia Wineheart Exactly. Now I'm mad they got me all hooked with no movie or show to watch, as I thought this was a trailer.
The movie, “chronicle” crazy similar.
I thought it was a clip from a Netflix series or something like that. Then I was thinking this was a new Twilight Zone episode.
Dude it's 2019 now and this clip is still amazing as hell?!! great job man!
and I only see this in 2024
Same
Same
Same 🤷🏻♂️
Superman

This really needs to be revisited. This is the kind of stuff that could become a real movie if backed by someone like sony.
Hadeks Marow Now Sony is coming out with their own evil Superman movie.
It was very good!
Would be an even cooler Netflix series!
Cool concept. Its like watching a super hero movie but from the perspective of the citizens or criminals.
***** Chronicle wasn't from the perspective of the citizens. It was filmed in found footage style and the camera belonged to Andrew so the audience is forced to see the movie through his perspective.
I agree.
This as a Netflix series.... I'm all in!!!!
Well... I think it's better if Netflix stays away from it.
I hope the creators of this video are successful in movie making or similar fields. The story telling, the cinematography, script, everything about this is top quality.
Wow! I thought this was a trailer till I saw it was 9 min long. It really sucked me in and kept me engaged! This short would make a seriously badass movie for sure!!!!!
I agree!
Amy Cass Same here
Shut up yourself T Mayo
@T Mayo you shut up. Wtf kind of name is t mayo anyway? Moron.
@T Mayo Lol, pathetic
Brilliant brilliant brilliant wow only seeing this in 2018 just got to make this into a full length would 100% be a classic
I honestly thought I was watching an official movie trailer and then I wondered if I had secretly found a pirated movie... That's how freaking good your short film was!!! Would love to help with any future projects you have!
Me too lol!!!!!! I was like YA I'm all in for an hour and a half!!!! 👍👍👍

How many trailers have u watched, first one? It's aweful

Dude this was so sick. I feel like this is the most realistic take we've gotten in cinema of the chaos and sheer wonder we would have at seeing someone or something like this. This was so badass.
Man i just had this come up in my feed and i was seriously hooked. The tension and delivery was amazing. So wish this was just a trailer and the full movie was coming out next year! Seriously guys, go talk to netflix and get a budget to do it your way. Fantastic
It's with Sony Pictures now.
@@nicksmyth8531 ooo interesting. thanks for the info :) Hope they dont try and dilute it.
Dude just threw a person in front of the train. Gangsta.
I'm
Too gangsta
That was a Go Train in Toronto (GTA) ... freaked me out when I saw it.
This character has a morality like Hancock he kills to save other people lives,such as light from death note he has a God complex
Just like Homelander
Looks like "Superman" watched too much "Deathnote"
Absolutely. The experiment is interesting though
Still like it. Makes me think of the Injustice storyline.
K
Win Zhao or played injustice cuz I don't see a note book in his hands or any death note relations
not really..... it looks more like Win Zhao watched too much "Deathnote", yes? no? maybe? see, when you point fingers, there are four more pointing back at you....truth
No idea why this was in my recommended, but this is better than all post end-game marvel content.
better than anything I seen in theaters recently.. great job man!!!
YouNg SweeT JoNeZ Thor 3 and Wonder woman were aw sum so no fucking way...
XxKarlosxX actually it's better
I would pay for this to be a movie or tv series! Great job!
man this should really be a movie I bet it would be one of the best
MLG pr0 gamer thats a bet you would lose
11 years ago and its better than today's movies in the theater
Really dug the menacing take on the super hero Genre. Nice!
Lol, didn't expect to find you here. I like your channel!
It's how I imagine a punisher movie should be, you just follow the criminals who are killed one by one, a horror movie.

Hey! Darious Britt love your channel btw,
D4Darious true that is why I like this video !
How good is this short film and it hasn’t even got any major stars” just shows you when a script is good and directed right It’s great viewing 👍
It
The concept is beyond The Punisher, Batman, and Superman combined. Love it.
Michael Cruz it sure is.
With a hint of Rocketeer & the Shadow to boot.
That’s a stretch
nah nothing compares 2 The Punisher
Spot on
The GOAT is back. 🙌🙌 Cool to see so many people still enjoying this amazing short.
