Servant
The short movie tells the well known story by E.A.Poe about a murderer, who tries to persuade the readers/audience of his mental stability, while telling the tale of the brutish act of killing an old man. He denies that he suffers from mental illness and openly boasts of his cleverness and cunning behavior. He kills the man though he loves him, holds no grudges against him and murders without any motive. The movie works heavily with green screen and computer coloration to achieve interesting special effects with the real life actors and the environment.
The Kid
In a tunnel deep under Manhattan, the Old Man rules the citizens of Scum-City. He swears to lead them to a paradise within the hollow earth once he finds five noble souls; but until then his followers must steal and deal to support him. A terminally ill hunchback named Goliath, crazed by his approaching death, decides to find the five noble souls and present them to the Old Man;by beheading New Yorkers he deems worthy of the honor. Meanwhile, another Scum-City dweller known as The Kid tries to do the Old Man's bidding, tangling with deadly gangsters and eccentric drug dealers-even though The Kid is only nine and his main weapon is a water pistol filled with acid. As both Goliath and The Kid pursue paths they believe will lead to paradise, they rob, kill;and inevitably confront each other in a grand showdown.
