Summary:Sarah Connor. To tell it straight, I'm trying to build a wall.
Reccer's Comments: I hadn't seen either of the Terminator movies in years when I stumbled onto this due to Festivids. This vid reminded me of everything I love about the Sarah Connor character, and why I wanted to be her when I was younger.* A fabulous character study that does a great job highlighting the the changes she undergoes through both two movies as well as her incredible resiliency.

*Apparently being committed and having all your friends die and a robot apocalypse weren't big stumbling blocks to my younger self. And yes, this icon was added as a result of watching this vid!

Summary: "You have conquered and I yield. Yet henceforward art thou also dead—dead to the World, to Heaven, and to Hope! In me didst thou exist—and, in my death, see by this image, which is thine own, how utterly thou hast murdered thyself." —Edgar Allan Poe
Reccer's Comments: I still haven't seen this movie, but this remains one of the most compelling vids I've ever seen. The visuals--especially the use of mundane objects to build tension--the use of the music, the pacing, the mood and atmosphere; it all combines perfectly to slowly and powerfully build the tension and suspense before the reveal. I imagine this is the exact feeling of suspense the movie evokes, but the vid does it all in 4:30. No matter how many times I watch this, I get sucked in all over again.
