For a fan film that's pretty damn good. I have no idea what Half Life is but I'm assuming zombies or some such.

cheers

Sort of. It's complicated. HL and HL2 have very little to do with one-another, really. I do very much recommend them, though.

WOW! Extremely good for a fan-made film!

I have played HL1 but not HL2; anyhow, this film reminds me of STALKER.

I don't really know about half life either but the film was kinda cool.  The handstand flipping stuff was kinda stupid, and the "bad guys" would shot better if they did not have flashlights sticking in their eyes, looked cool but seem rather stipid too. but it was not too bad.

Nicely done for a fan film, thanks for posting. Other than nice effects, make-up and costumes the soldiers were acting like a bunch of tools and the acting was not much more than running around (and some martial arts moves).

Anyway, mostly a nice excercise in special effects but little in the sense of a story.

Nice post.

Everyone starts somewhere - how many of us have a movie attempt in our resume?  I don't.

Gracias,

Glenn

Well, if it isn't Adrian Shepherd, why, I haven't seen you since Opposing Force (http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Half-Life:_Opposing_Force).

Pretty well done film for amateurs, effects were quite fine, acting was the only sort I could expect from a B-movie :D. One thing that immediate got to me though (fan/nerd-raeg), there isn't zombies in Half-Life, not like that. This is what we should have seen: (http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Standard_Zombie)This right here.

Nothing complicated aboot it, the games are excellent and often witty, and other times, Orwellian.

Diggin' the reference to Aperture Science (http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Portal).
