The House
Okay, first of all, I KNOW THAT IT ISN"T THE BEST ANIMATION OR AUDIO THAT I COULD DO!!! I made the entire thing in only 12 days, and I wasn't concentrated on making a really good film.The House is about a man who well, walks into a house, and it goes from there.
Much better than I expected it to be. While story was little to be found, this film does manage to convey the fear of the protagonist and the danger of the house.

Yes, there was basically no story whatsoever, I just wanted the overall message to be, as you said, fear, and most importantly, the danger of the house (I just pretty much quoted you there 
)
I thought the title was really crappy though, I only used it because I had no better ideas that weren't taken (that I know of).
Impatient Bump, but I want some more feedback.
Very good! The only thing is the bad guy looks like one of those robbers from the police set, he doesn't look scary.
Well, you've already pointed out the main problem, being the lack of story. Some dude in a creepy house who gets attacked randomly by a psychopath. Part of the problem also, is that it all happens so fast, we never have time to absorb what is happening. Especially at the end when you have that sequence of short cuts and then all the sudden he is dead. I kind of has a "lolwut" effect.
But there are definitely good things. The animation was good for the most part, and I also thought that the lighting was effective. And like Jargon said, you could feel the fear there, it just came and went too quickly to have the desired effect. But it was good overall. 
Yeah, I only used one florescent blue light, and it gave an awesome feel, plus it reduced light flicker a lot.
*sigh* my film still hasn't been reviewed. I guess I'm doomed to unpopularity.
If you mean reviewed for the Directory, you're very impatient. It can take up to two weeks for that to happen.
Well, I guess I meant both. And to what you said, I've never subme=itted any of my films before, so I didn't really know the time period.
