Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Up Late (Bad Dream Jam)]

When she stumbled through that doorway I thought she'd tripped, rather than fallen into an abyss, at first, but apart from that little thing the rest of this flows flawlessly, in an easy to follow but nightmarish kind of way. The mirror bit was pretty cool. Always nice seeing some scare like that before the main character actually becomes aware of it! Nice work.

[screem]

Not the most annoying or loud-pitched scream, at least. :) If anything it's almost... ambient. Nicely animated too. Impressive work turning a scream into something I actually wouldn't mind replaying a few times... might keep this on loop a bit too. Just cause.

CapaciousSpace responds:

its great for getting to sleep!

[A Dream Come True]

That screeching sound. O_o Yeah I think this'd qualify as a bad dream. And that spider. Yeah. It qualifies. Most definitely. Love the trippy style, and that thing about dreams where you just don't know what's coming next. Unpredictability accomplished. Dream sense.

FlumpyTripod responds:

Thank you.

[Restless Sleep]

Such chill music for such a dark place! And strange enough... it really fits together. Love the fluidity of this, and how it morphs from one fear into another. The bad dream theme definitely comes across, though I wonder it might've done so more with darker music. It's an interesting, but not particularly scary, combination.

[What Is A Meme? - Schmucks Animated]

Well that was entertaining... or slightly disturbing... the miseducation thereof, albeit intentional as it may be... either way fun stuff.

[Night Terrors]

The ending caught me off guard a bit (like... how did that happen?) but up till that point it was a pretty good trip! Starts comical but goes bizarre and badly dreamish. Love the fluidity and quick transformation, though feels like it cut offs a bit early. A bit longer: a bit better? Lost potential? The ending that could have been but never was? Either way nice work.

[Land of Dreams - BadDreamJam]

Was thinking some bits of the animation were kind of comical, like the running motion where the legs go before the character, but in the end... you actually managed to capture some pretty dark emotions in that final scene. Impressive work building that up. The transformation was cool though, even if the style overall's kind of wonky. Practice makes perfect though. Props on plot progression in particular. Perfect music to set the mood too.

[Bad Dream Animation]

It's all a dream huh. :) This jam's turning up some pretty creative shorts! I like the whooshy sound effects, and the sketchy colored-in style. Fun stuff. Not so disturbing but... nice work.

[CAPRISUN™]

Well that went fast! Sketch has potential but: damn, that audio. O_O So loud. And out of nowhere like that too. Might want to have some kind of background ambience, or humming, or similar, to guide users in on the right volume level. This is the kind of thing when you turn up your speakers wondering if there's any sound and then: woah, need to turn down fast.

TheBaconLord360 responds:

I will take that into consideration in my next sketch.

[Oney Plays Animated: The World of Penguosis]

Pretty smooth Oney Plays sketch! Not too short either. Creative use of inanimate resources and effects, though can't say they all go together seamlessly. XD Nice work.
