The site doesn't seem to be working, but if it's hosted by servers in NYC they could be down in the blackout. I'll be trying it again later.

Thanks sooo much Philip! :smile:

I was finally able to load this Web site today, but unfortunately the film is no longer online. There is a link to a clip (in RealOne format), but it doesn't work. :frown:

OK, so can anyone summarize this film for me? What is it about?

Buck. Matt and Joey were hoping to screen it at short film festivals around the place; keep your eyes open and you might catch it.

It's a hard film to summarize without spoilers, but it's a black-and-white black comedy about a dog, Sparky, who is threatened by his owner's new boyfriend, goes insane and starts hatching murder plots suggested by his squeaky toy, Mr. Squeaks.

Sparky and Mr. Squeaks are puppets; Matt plays Sparky and Joey plays Mr. Squeaks. Sparky narrates the film and Matt composed the music, plus a neat theme tune for the closing credits.
