Under The Terminator's Skin

As a huge fan of Mica Levi's score, and both films, I was excited to watch this. It lived up to what I expected. An introspective, stark, but definitely coherent short narrative (with an incredible score) about a Terminator hunting it's prey. Great work! Thanks for sharing!

Audio editing was brilliant. Made and old story feel new. Great work.

Amazing how the very oppressive new music from another movie can change the mood of The Terminator and still perfectly fits as something that could have been used in the 80's.
The music does not highlight every actions of the characters but creates a very dark mood that goes very well with the violence. Pretty interesting exercise in style.

I loved this one. I was amazed at how deftly Dom dealt the knife to a classic. All the plot you need to know is right at the beginning (and maybe some exposition along the way). Once the action starts, it don't let up. Awesome music, and I'm amazed to learn how many different pieces he used.

Terminator has a very basic plot, which makes it a perfect candidate for a short film. The editor has done a great job. Nothing feels rushed, there are no jarring cuts and everything flows as if the film had always been this length. The limited dialogue and choice of music serve well in maintaining tension.

I dropped a point for audio editing because I felt that the dialogue could have done with being a bit louder. The music often drowned it out, but then again, that may have been the editor's intention.

Video quality was slightly pixelated. This wasn't too much of a problem for the most part, but it became very noticeable during shots of the exploded truck.

Narratively this was generally fine, although it was slightly odd that Sarah goes from cowering and confused ("please don't kill me") to suddenly trying to save Kyle's life.

All in all though, this is a good edit. Many memorable parts of the film have been seamlessly blended into something nugget sized. Well worth a watch.
