Man, Charlie's more of a combat vet than I give him credit for.

That said, this does have an interesting storyline, and there's a good use of the clips. The song doesn't hurt the video, and I don't care for Linkin Park, so well done there in that it didn't annoy me as the background music.

I also liked the posterized shots when they popped up, too.

It seems to me that it takes a while - about a minute - to get started; I'm not sure if that could be pared down some, but it may be worthwhile to see if it starts quicker, because it's a good sixty seconds before action starts.

wow, i really liked this. I don't normally like Dark Charlie because i love sweet Charlie so much

but i thought this was great. like i said on youtube, i think this is how Charlie would've reacted to Claire's death. The manipulations of scenes were great, my fave one was charlie beating up Jack in the rain at the end. and i really liked, although small, when they found charlie dead and sayid and jack were looking over his body; almost pitifully

i loved the audio as well. Oh, and kicking Juliet's ass? Genius!!!

:D great work, makes me wanna check out more of your vids

I really enjoyed this! I aggree with littleton_pace, I think that he would have acted this way if Claire died. Great Job!

Loved the AU!

It was awesome how you could see Charlie descending into madness after Claire died! I really loved how he'd see flashes of her, especially towards the end when she looked so dismayed by what he was doing! Just fantastic!

And it doesn't hurt that I love Linkin Park and this remix of "Crawling"/"Krwlng."

Really enjoyed it!

Can't believe I haven't commented on this yet! While sweet Charlie is nice, I've always had a fascination with "Dark Charlie", and this vid was a great example of that.

Excellent AU, having Charlie blame everyone else for Claire's death. Crazy, schizo behavior...love it!

If only he could have killed Locke too...

Great AU!!

DUDE!! I sware i love these AU's where people totally make up storylines, it shows a true cleverness and knowlage of the material (now i sound like a High school teacher) You really told the story well without the songs help,(though it di add to the creepy vibe.) I just loved how you put it all together, how long did it take you to come up with it all? Superb job!

Thanks for the compliment! I really appreciate all the feedback I get. To answer your question...I came up with the idea and started working on it months ago. It took a back seat once school got busy. Plus, I thought the idea wasn't going to work out. Then earlier this week, I decided to finish it cause it was bothering me that I hadn't. Now that I finished, it feels good! lol.

Thanks again!

Thanks for the comment! Yah, if only I could get Charlie to kill Locke. Sadly, I didn't have the right clips for it. lol.

Hi!

Awsome video! Frikkin' awsome!

Just one thing, when I download the video from media putfile, it says that it's an invalid file and I can't watch it..

Could you perhaps upload a new one or send it to me? I would really appreciate it!
