Hi there,

I on the other hand believe it sucks with all due respect. The dialogue isn’t funny and the scenes drag out to long. No body has the patience for this kind of thing anymore so why are we still making it. I only have patience for Tarantino dialogue but that’s because it’s good. Although I’m being crude I do admire them being out there and making films like this because that’s the only way they will get better, at least these guys have shut their mouths and made something unlike 90% of wannabe filmmakers. They put their camera where their mouth is.

I’ll see you all at the silver screen.

Has anyone here actually seen “Cemetery Man” AND watched this short? They’re completely different – this is more like the anti-Cemetery Man. It fits closer in line with what nate described it as: Night at the Museum with a better premise. Really the only things Cemetery Man and the short have in common are that they both take place in a cemetery and center around its caretaker.

Cool movie, though.

Hooray for Indie filmmakers — except that they need to learn their stagelines. When covering a scene, it’s jarring for two people who’re supposed to be talking to each other to be both looking right-to-left in their individual shots. It’s the most basic of cinematic grammar, folks. And it’s not rocket science. WATCH THOSE STAGELINES! (And while you’re at it, watch Dellamorte Dellamore, which is the original title of Cemetery Man).

Definitely “Cemetery Man”: amateurs borrow, professionals steal – all art is derivative. This is a very well done piece, Kudos!

Sounds a lot like Night at the Museum
This, however, sounds like a better premise.

Sounds awfully similar to Cemetery Man http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109592/

YAY!! It made Netorama!
Back in the 80′s, I remember a book of science fiction stories that I had found in a thrift store. The book was “ancient” and most of the stories were about ghosts and zombies.
There was a story similar to that concept for the movie. I had always thought it would have made a good short film.
I am not saying they copied anything though. People are bound to come up with the same ideas.

The thought of “what happens at the cemetary when we are asleep in bed” has always been an inspiration for such stories.

Cool movie. Very promising young filmmakers. I wish them the best of luck.
