Yeah, I liked it too.
What is the significance of the buttermilk?
Is that just supposed to be a weird thing for someone to request?
I took a few filmmaking courses in college. Probably my favorite classes.
One had footage from Mortal Kombat (II, I think).

Not too bad. At the start you might put the title on a black background with a slightly less "normal" font, makes it look more professional.

Hey, what did you use to make the film?
Also the ending was somewhat expected. But overall I thought it was good.

No offense, but did you intend it to be a ripoff of the Sylvester Stallone scene in The Out-of-Towners? (his first film role, btw)

Thanks for the comments!
There's no real significance to the buttermilk. I randomly picked two items obtainable from a grocery store and buttermilk and cigarettes were the first two things that came to mind, oddly.
It's unintentional if this movie rips off the aforementioned Stallone movie, as I've never seen it.

Wow that was better than most of the short films my friend has shown me; The end was unpredictable. What camera did you use?

Great camera work!
Amazon.com has started featuring short films on their "Welcome" page. It' seems like it's good exposure. They have an email address for filmmakers to contact them about having their films featured on the site.
I've seen 3 of their films so far and yours would fit in there.
Just thought you'd want to know. :wink:
