My gosh, what a great song choice! This is a lot of fun, and manages to make the movie much scarier than it was.

[lilly_the_kid]

Wow, you really sold me on the song choice. I got unexpectedly teary near the end to the 'and I am one of your people' lyrics, like, that unexpected sense of belonging and longing there, that was really beautiful.

[lilly_the_kid]

What a cool vid! I loved your timing and use of jump cuts.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much!!! I always tend to do a lot of jump cuts, glad it works for here :)

[frayadjacent]

Heh -- now you say that I remember loving your use of jump cuts on your Sherlock Holmes vid. That should have been a hint that it was you! *Will secret this information away for next year.*

[lilly_the_kid]

I shall mask my style accordingly :D

Awesome! Great editing to the beat and lyric/clip matches, unexpectedly perfect song choice. And so wonderfully 80s and slashy:)

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I'm very happy you enjoyed this! " And so wonderfully 80s and slashy" It's magical :)

[jetpack_monkey]

I was matched on this fandom last year and promptly switched to another of the person's requests because I could not think of how to vid it.

This is how you vid it. Good show, Festividder. What a great, strange song choice that fits perfectly, reflecting the nostalgia that a movie like Lost Boys invariably elicits while bringing its own, ah, meat to the table. And of course, great editing and clip choices to go with it. *claps*

[lilly_the_kid]

Awww, thank you so so much for this wonderful comment! I'm very happy about EVERYTHING you said!!! Heh, meat to the table :)

"This is how you vid it." I'll have to get this framed!

*takes a bow* THANK YOU!!!

[blnchflr]

Such a good job on the cutting to the beats - fast and slow! Which sounds like the sex metaphor the vid is o_O

Really nice job, is what I'm trying to say!

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much for your awesome comment! "Which sounds like the sex metaphor the vid is" Heh :D

Thank you again, I'm very happy you like this!

[kabal42]

What an amazing vid. Lovely choice of song, perfect mood and great lyrics matching. I loved your editing to it as well. Very well done. I love that movie and you really did great things with it.

[lilly_the_kid]
