Oh, the horror. My Halloween-themed film is now on Youtube!

Hey guys.
For 2 years, I worked on a film that would explain my love and obsession for Halloween. I made it for others like myself who appreciate this awesome time of year. It's now available on youtube, and I would be most appreciative if you'll give it a shot. I hope that it puts you in the Halloween spirit! I'm sure you'll recognize some of the songs I used, hehe. Thank you so much.

Awwww, thank you soooooo much for watching it. You guys are the greatest!!!

My original plan was to just have a long montage that covered every aspect of Halloween and October, but with no story or dialogue. So I just shot "holiday spirit" for a couple years, and then tried to think of a way to give it a story, with wrap-around scenes or something. So that's where the characters of the Halloween-loving prankster chick and her sad-sack boyfriend came from. And once those scenes were finished, I wanted to show a little bit of The Great Pumpkin and his magical candy corn, so I immediately went on e-bay and tried to find the spookiest gloves available :)
