A caffeine-addicted student falls prey to betrayal, heartbreak and bullying all in a toxic social media culture that leads him down a path of murderous actions that allow him to renew his sense of purpose in life.
This is my fourth short film. However, I did not expect it to be over 55 minutes. I find that fault to be mine, as the co-editor. I was ecstatic that it was finally out to the world when it first came out. However, I grew and at the time of writing this, I disliked it a lot (I still do) and beat myself up harshly over the treatment of this film. It was too long, the editing was off (my fault), and there was too much self-indulgent cinematography.
I was obsessed with sound design as I was trying so hard to catch up with Nolan and Villeneuve's films which have marvellous soundscapes.
Therefore, whenever people mention this film to me, I immediately curl myself up and cover my ears as I am so ashamed.
However, I can't keep doing this because it diminishes every crew and cast member's effort behind Caffeinated Killer. I owe it to them for their utmost energy and commitment to make this film a reality. So, please do watch the film on YouTube, it would mean a lot if you could help to support my friends' work as well as ours. Go ahead, have a laugh and enjoy it (if you do).
I hope you have a great time viewing this - just like we did when making Caffeinated Killer.
