    As a handyman for 25 years I completely understand the plumbers mindset

      I barely have the skills to flush a toilet and I still completely understand the plumber’s mindset 100 percent.

      We have a local plumber and we love him irrationally. Plumbers, handymen, electricians, and tow truck drivers are like God’s own helpers here on earth.

    I've been a Master Plumber in Pittsburgh for over 30 years. This had me laughing so hard that I was crying. Fantastic job all around. You're a very talented young film maker 👍

    Great flick but to me, the most amazing part is how you time traveled and had a younger Sally Field take a roll in your movie. She's a splitting image. It's completely uncanny.

    I'm so stupid. The title is ***The Clog**. I thought it meant a clog (like a shoe) was stuck. Just thought I'd share that.🥴 Oops forgot to say that I really enjoyed this ❤

    Right now I have a determined and prolonged issue with my bathroom sink. It empties slowly. I’ve tried everything. I don’t want to tell my boyfriend because he’ll come over and make me take everything out from under the cabinet in order to get to the plumbing. It’s not worth the headache.

    Phenomenal. Fun. Layered. Well done. The supernatural element was a metaphor of the clog. Why do they agree to leave the house? Because of the clog, and one man who magically refuses to quit on the job but you're also not sure if he's a murderer. And he 'dies" for them. He has a heroe's journey in their bathroom and I bet when they see the pipes and the explosion they won't be mad. The response would be equally as unexplainable as leaving the plumber alone. Then you had the element of the clog not letting him leave, him refusing to leave, giving up and then being trapped, and then he turns it back on the clog as a strategy. That ultimately explodes the house and he and the clog end up together, just like the couple. It's layered and almost easy to understand. His battle in the bathroom is the battle of the couple's relationship. The plumber is an angel. When he's battling the clog you lnow he's battling himself, he's battling a clog, and he's illustrating the internal struggle and a spirit of overcoming that ends up representing us all.
    And even though the plumber is an angel, make him look like he might be the killer.

    Don't know how I found this, but it's excellent. All the actors did really well. The pipe shots were really well done also. I especially liked the ferrofluid monster.
    Is this original music?

    • @CalebPortoFilms
      @CalebPortoFilms  Місяць тому +2

      Thanks so much! Yes the music is all original (except for the Mozart 🙂) and it was composed by Alex Winkler and performed by the Budapest Scoring Orchestra. It was a really fun collaboration and the first time I've worked with a composer. There's a featurette on my channel highlighting Alex's work!

  • @richardadesmond
    @richardadesmond Місяць тому

    This was fun, but the "fat needed to be trimmed" this is meaningful most, to Ralph, cut out the couple. Ralph states he's never had a blocked pipe ever, set that up more, show me more why it matters. The couple? who cares? no offence. Ralph is the one who relentlessly wants the pipe cleared, we experience that, not with the man of the house, cut it. but have it so it matters to Ralph, he seems so proud of it, why? show that, this is just some couple's house, give me a pipe that means everything to him. Maybe his home after he brought it back from the brink of destruction from a hurricane, when everyone said he couldn't, or his mother's pipes that he installed and he promised that hold up for life, his word to her. Still fun though, good acting, some really impressive shots, great cinematography. thanks.
