I saw this as part of The Belfast Film Festival event "Soiled Shorts" and I loved every second of it. Obviously its very tongue in cheek, and the acting is purposefully hammy, but hands up who's ever seen a monster made of old video machines? Nope, not me, and it was fantastically done. The (short) film has a distinctly retro feel, which is all very intentional. Set in an old video store (which it confirms at the end really exists) it's a tale of the digital online giants trying to destroy The Last Video Store. There's a few quite Astron6 style scenes in there, and I don't want to give away how the monster is destroyed, but this was a fun ten minutes for me and I enjoyed too trying to see how many of those titles on the wall of the shop I own myself haha.
