Cool Air Audience Reviews

Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
diggus doggus at the cost of sounding redundant, i have found Cool Air to the the as- of-yet best adaptation of a Lovecraft story, and a very, very worthy film in its own.Cool Air is taken from HPL's short story of the same name, and talks about the meeting of the main character, Carter in this version, with the mysterious dr Munoz, and the resulting facts.Bryan Moore, director and lead, is decent, but not exceptional in either role. The supporting mrs Caprezzi is very good, but Jack Donner as doctor Munoz is astounding - it's worth watching this film for his performance alone. Also, for such a small production, the film is very well done, and the accompanying soundtrack is at times almost moving. Having watched in my life way too many Mythos-inspired films, i have to say, this one tops them all, going well above the more complicated The Whisperer in Darkness. Cannot recommend enough. Must Watch Now!
zorn24601 This 50-minute adaptation of Lovecraft's story 'Cool Air' actually has more punch than the original story. Instead of going for any shock value that could be exploited, Bryan Moore creates a very human story about a man's desire to live...or at least avoid death...at any cost. Doctor Munoz (played by Jack Donner) is unusual for a Lovecraft character in that we don't fear him or what he does. In fact, we come to pity Munoz for how much he has lost, and how much he's sacrificed to stay alive. 'Never underestimate the power of the human will', Munoz tells Randolph Carter, and the audience comes to believe that, whatever medicine or strange science he says is keeping him alive, it is his will that keeps death at bay. This is an excellent short film. I saw it recently at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, Oregon, and it very nearly got a standing ovation from the audience. So did Bryan Moore and Jack Donner when they had a Q&A session with the audience. Hell, we should have carried them out on our shoulders. I hope we haven't heard the last of Bryan Moore; he's a filmmaker to watch. 10/10 stars.
davezilla69 Cool air is (for once) a faithful adaption of a Lovecraft short story. The camera work is great and the mood is perfect. The actor that plays the old guy is incredible! If you are a Lovecraft fan, seek out this movie and own it, I did.
VideoMonkey Fully cool faithful adaptation to the original Lovecraft story. Not like most most Lovecraft adaptations,like Brian Yuzna's which are fully cool but not quite faithful. This one is down the line true as an adaptation can get... A must see for Lovecraft fans!!!!!!!
