Mike,

I took a look at this.  I'm on board with the idea - horror works well against the backdrop of Vietnam and the oppressive jungle setting.  Bold choice for a short given the budget you'd need to pull it off.  Is this testing the waters for a feature or if this is it?  Wondering before posting further.

Steve

Please reread your logline and fix the mistakes.

I won't even open this up, based on the logline, as have a pretty good idea how riddled with errors the actual script will be.

Reminded me of a gonzo-style Asian horror film. Liked all the characters. Named well. Based on any existing legend?

I think this is a pretty solid effort - not my normal cup of tea - but twas a nice fast pace.

It ended how i figured it would after the first few pages. So I think predictability is your weakness here.
To me the story needs to lead to something else... a twist or a hookline... the build up to a well designed and carefully woven bombshell to bring it all together.

just my opinion
