This got it all: scifi, comedy, great effects, characters you can sympathize with, great plot, and a little conspiracy theory disclosure about human history. Very well done!

Who doesn't like a good nerd turned hero movie?! Great acting, wonderful cinema photography, amazing graphics. More please!!

15:20 Nice nod to the universal ''Live long and prosper!'' gesture. Rest in peace and serenity Leonard Nemoy, the world is a lesser place without you.

It's directed like an advertisement and edited like a music video but great special effects, a nice sense of humour and the soundscape was epic. Sounds amazing on expensive headphones.

finally a short not just with cool effects and CG, but also with a strong idea, a coherent path, a well narrated story. 10/10

Marvel could sure use you right now! Fantastic Story! Everything was balanced and perfect!

Yes!! Please more of this - it's absolutely resonating with my imagination! Loved it!

Did they not see the signs saying No Camping and No Fires???? 😅😅😅😅

Thoroughly enjoyable! The humour worked, and the best test of all - I actually started to "care" about the characters, and that's what makes a film worth watching. Make more!

Best short Ive seen. good story line, decent acting and well done special effects. over all an incredibly well done short !

That hot spacechick, trying to do the Spock salute at the end just cracked me up!!! Well done!! XD

This would have been great if made into a full length movie. Although brief, I enjoyed it.

It went so quickly, and I didn't want it to end. Clear sign of a winner...

This would make a great cinema film. Can't wait for part two, but please. . . Make it much longer!!!

When this video was uploaded I was 9 years old...got my first internet connection when I was 11 years old and on 2021 I'm watching this...now I'm 16...goin to be 17 after few months...damn this is really epic! I'm amazed all these years I didn't watched it...Deserves more views and likes and subscribers! I subscribed! Keep up the great work!

THE LAST SCENE IS A TRIBUTE TO STAR TREK!!!!!! WELL DONE!!!! STAR TREK FIRST GENERATION!!!!

Awsome no more words.... No need of making it as a full movie it has given fully satisfaction of a 3hr movie Including all mix Fiction Thrill Spicy Romantic Etc Etc..awsome

Epic, engaging, sweet, humorous, deep and meaningful all in 20 min. BRAVO BRAVA!!!! Love it love it. Encore! These characters already have my allegiance. Regular guy chosen. The girlfriend is perfect. She's wonderful. A Selma H. if I ever saw one. ..I would watch if a franchise. Well done.

Great job guys. What I dont get is why there are so many thumbs down???? Just the hard work and passion when making this should guarantee no dislikes. Cant stand haters..

Of all of the Dark shorts, I liked this one the best. Had a clear beginning, middle, and end. Interesting characters (with humor), and good SPFX.

Great short. One of the best sci-fi shorts I've seen. Great concept. Great humor. Great VFX. Good job! Thanks for sharing.

SOMEBODY GIVE THESE GUYS A MOVIE DEAL! I never comment on anything, but I feel COMPELLED to make one here. Love the cinemetography--great POV shot dropping the cell phone back into bag...it catches you, as you don't see it used that way, and the final fight scene setup / shot was EPIC. I would consider it to be right at homne in the MARVEl MCU...it was just...FUCKING FANTASTIC. The writing / story was GREAT! It's truly lacking in modern professional movies these days. Even the music was great. WTF are these guys doing shooting movies for youtube??? They should be doing this professionally!!!!

Loved it, and waiting for the next part: this has the potential for a great series

From when I am in time watching, this vid was uploaded 8 years ago. But short as it is, it's awesome! The galactic war between Pleiades (The Nordic babe) and Alpha Draconis (the rep) with Earth in the middle was depicted so well. Great Show. Wish they made it into a series though...

I freaking love it. Humour and scifi make an awesome combination. Pleeeease bring out a sequel. :-)

This has every element a great film does. Great work Angelo Licata. Thank you.

Absolutely Brilliant B-Movie Nonsense. Just what i needed for a relax on my Friday Nite. I luv the way the goodie spaceship looks like a designer soccer shoe. I luv his Teen Wolf T shirt. I luv the alien ladies inability to do the Vulcan Sign from Star Trek. I luv The Tent being in a no camping zone. I luv the star wars opening sequence. I luv the ending. Thank you. We all need more good Space Comedy!

Man, that girl could melt steel with those warm eyes!

Watched quite a lot of these sci/fi fantasy shorts in the last few weeks, they range from good to brilliant thnx for your dedication 👍

Just started binging on these short films, and I really like this one. Great story line, and its gives you just enough to grasp the concept. ♡

Am here again to watch Closer for the umpteenth time. Such a beautiful script

10PM on a phone that's been constantly searching for service WITH the Bluetooth on and it has 80%? That's the hardest part of the story to believe!

P.S. AT THE END, I WAS UPSET (AND STILL AM), THAT IT WAS THE END! I WANTED MORE!!!

this short is better than most Hollywood movies.....

I think I've seen this before. Well done short. I also like how he was gathering wood to build a fire for their campsite located a short distance behind the sign seen at 6:00 that says "No camping. No fires." :)

They're gonna need more than one watch.

I cant understand , how they didn't try to make this film into a full movie, because that shit was cool .

Way, way cool sci-fi short. Very few I stay with to the end. A hopeful and happy ending. Well done guys.

Very nice, your production had a fine beginning an excellent story that kept you intrigued and ending that completed the story with a possible part 2. So many of these short Films leave you somewhere in the middle of the production and they call it the end. I will subscribe in hopes of seeing more. Thank you

Loving the comedy in this film, actors gelled well togeather. CGI awesome, good story line. 👍

Elena Cucci and the alien girl are stunning. Great idea loved it. Live long and prosper.

OMG...wish this was a 3 hour film. Great movie. You are on your way my friend.

This was good need more of this one more sequels

Boy, this is great so far. Can't wait to see how it ends!!

A Hollywood-style story, but decent CGI and good acting. Nice job guys.

Sci-Fi laced with humour = WINNER!

Wow man wow!!!! I've been watching sci fi shorts for years and this is without a doubt the best one I've seen. The acting, sound, production values and all the rest are the best I've seen and I've seen many. If this came out in 13 why am I just now seeing it? I look forward to part 2 and your other films. I salute you. Well done. Very well done!

Ok, this would make either a great movie or an excellent series. Thanks for sharing it!

Looking forward to episode 2. Thoroughly enjoyed the special effects and storyline. gorgeous alien, nice arse. Our hero has got big problems coming by the look of the final scene.

humour and a very human reaction. brilliant on every level in every way.

Thumbs up. One of those stories that was just right, entertaining and well worth viewing. Hit a chord. Thank you.

He could use his abilities to help planet earth and nature, and good people with strong souls. ❤

That was awesome. Brilliant digital effects. Would've been more realistic if the aliens were telepathic, the spacecraft was disk or cylinder shaped (looking like it was fashioned from a single piece of metal, not manufactured parts assembled around a frame) and silent in their propulsion. And yes, I am saying that this short film is not far from stuff that is really happening.

Excellent. I'd watch 2 hours of it. Be nice to see the actors loosen up a little with more dialogue to work with, kinda get in to their own a bit more. Great cinematography, beautiful ship, great everything, really. Can't wait for the sequel. Watched this twice, now.

Goes to get firewood…has no tools but his hands--Master Class camper!!!

You should make a sequel out of this. This is fantastic. 😄

...to be continued...YES, PLEASE!!! A great short-movie experience - soo much in line with my imagination! Absolutely loved it!

Best movie I've ever seen. "To be continued...". Wish I can see the next chapter...

Meglio tardi che mai! (Visto 8 anni la produzione) Un vero capolavoro! Complimenti a tutti. Il viso della donna aliena sembrava in CGI: fantastico!

Best cinematography I've seen so far. Well done.

Wow, this was so WAY AWESOME … I want the full length file NOW … please … LOL … very well done … !!!

Vulcan salute at end was a funny twist. Confused the poor girl.

Part 2?? LOL!! I keep coming back to watch it! I'd love to see more!!

A full movie would be great - at the end I felt like I wanted more - thanks for upload

I liked it, very well done. The reptilian effects were worthy of a big budget production and the story was tight. I have to add that Francesca Gandolfo was wonderfully alien in the role, almost angelic with Elena Cucci being utterly believable. (And almost impossibly stunning) Well done everybody, a terrific job. When is Part 2 coming out?

This was really good. I don't see what other people are complaining about. This could be a feature film someday.

" No reptiloid has been harmed during the production of this movie" 😂👍 grandi , fatto bene . Grazie all'algoritmo di YT ;)

This is Box office material. Look forward to next episode.

Best short I've watched all evening. Very nice combination of great effects, props, cinematography, sound, lighting, and good acting too, which sadly is often the missing link in these short films! Thank you very much for the show, I hope to see more of your work, and hope you're already making good pay-checks by now. Aloha, KTFs

Nice short! I like the screwball humour in this one. That the sci-fi-element blended with the humour pretty fine and elevated the film a bit above many similar short scifi-films I have seen here on KZfaq. The effects were really good from a realistic point-of-view in some scenes not in all scenes though. As an example the opening to the film before we arrive on earth felt a little bit cheap to some extent not entirely. As the story progressed towards the end the effects became better in time, in some sequences truly excellent. But the best part of this film is the story. A pretty visual and complex setup and the execution of the story just felt right. In some sense I would suggest one started to think about the Steven Spielberg film "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind" as we finally get a good sense of story. That the story is told in a *visual and coherent way* so we are dragged into the film. In fact at first I just expected a stardard sci-fi-tale with some good effects here we finally get to see some real story developed pretty strong. I think the banter between the two humans talking about sex was pretty dead on. It didn't feel stupid rather cozy as if we just could realize these two characters didn't exactly mean what they talked about! On the downside: As I have said: The effects were not excellent in all shots. They looked a little bit computer-generated from my point-of-view. The female hero character from outer space felt a little bit "too old" perhaps, with that I mean she represents an artistic choice that maybe is a little bit dated nowadays. The same would go for the antagonist alien character. But they had some charm to them. Some kind of seeking into the old worlds presented in Star Trek and other productions as examples. I would have loved to see a little better effects and a larger scale production so that the strengths of the story, the fun dialogue and the interesting visual concepts presented here would have been enlarged by better production-values. Nice short though! If you feel like it check out my computer animated short "Alien Forever" about a lone woman confronting an international war scenario in the future and learning odd details on the way. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9ZpqrCHrM6me3k.html

An excellent short Sc-Fi movie, very entertaining , will be a big hit if made into a Netflix series, absolutely no doubt about that! Well done and thank you

I really enjoyed this short movie. The Reptile like guy looked like he was wearing a Super Mandalorian armour and weapons, and the alien chick that looked like a real life version of Rei Ayanami was extremely beautiful! I also like the part where the guy gets powers, he looked sort of Super Saiyan and I even thought he was going to turn into the green Ranger or something at one point. Indeed a very good movie!

Phenomenal short film, pleasure to watch

This short has it all. Comedy, suspense, horror and action!!!! 😁😁😁

May 2021 watch this short movie, but after 5 years, still to be continued..

Very good! Awesome! Make more movies! Great VFX!

Excellent job in and of itself. I would definately watch a full feature version. A+

love this short film. I was hoping there is/was a part2. the concept is unique and has great possibilities even the space craft and CGI graphics. I give it a very positive rating.

Loved it - story, fun, actors the lot. This was 10 years ago - where's part 2??? . . . please . . . 🙂

Crowd fund this to a full length movie!

the single greatest short i have ever seen.!! please make a full length movie!!!!!!!

Definitely enjoyable to watch. I like how, in the beginning, dude spots a tiny bright object on the ground and is then surprised when he looks up and sees a spaceship the size of a city block that's shining as bright as a full super moon on a cloudless night. Think I may have seen that first...Great job, though! When does the next part come out? I subscribed so I won't miss it!

So nice and well done! Waiting for the sequel...will that ever happen ?

To be continued, GREAT. Looking forward to it..

I hope the continuation is not long in coming! First sy-fi short I’ve ever watched and it did not disappoint.

Absolutely hilarious! Every little detail in this production, is super -stereotypical! ;-D

very good. Congratulations

AWESOME! I HOPE U MAKE THIS INTO A 2, OR 3-HOUR MOVIE!!!

Im not used to write something like this but...the woman who played the alien is stunningly gorgeous...

Can't wait for the next one, to be continued. I keep watching this one over and over.

Audio and visuals are excellent, this audio is better than some of Hollywood Atmos movies! this movie proves the point, it is far more important than the way the movies audio soundtrack is mastered rather than what audio decoding ones using (atmos, dts-x etc) !!! My OLED/AV would like to you for what it's been searching for!

So when is this follow up movie going to see the light? INTERESTING stuff man!

Perfect! I'd loved it! More, please!

I like the Spock hand wave at the end!

This could have been any one of the sequels or prequels to the main movie. Great Job!!!

With respect, the situation and design really reminded me of Moon Over Tao -a film I love and your homage, intentional or not, is still very original.

Totally loved it! Special effects was awesome!

Better than some movies

Very nice and... friendly... !!!!

Cool, nicely done with a laugh at the end, that wave bye made me smile
