    Loom

    A year to create five and a half minutes. If you're going to put in that sort of investment then you'd better pray that the results are worth it. And in the case of animated short film Loom by Jan Bitzer, Ilija Brunck and Csaba Letay they absolutely are. Stop and watch it now. It'll be the best five minutes of your day.

    A moth being caught in a spiders web. Struggling for an escape, the moths panic movements only result in less chance of survival. What follows is the type of causality everyone's expecting. The spider appears, claims its prey and feeds on it. The way nature works. But it's the point of view that creates an intense relationship between the hunter and its victim. There is much more to explore, much more to feel if one takes the time to really experience the content of a split second.

      It would be a great movie to watch stoned; except when you think the spider is coming after you.
      No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

        Definitely best in full screen and the definition is good enough to do that.

        My dark nature makes me desperate to show this to an arachnophobe. .

          Bits remind me of the graphics in House.

            That was pretty awesome. Umm no very awesome. The graphics were amazing. I could see that as an opening for some dark Disney flick.
