I've been looking forward to seeing this one for a while and it didn't disappoint! You put together a really powerful and horrifying (in the good sense that it was supposed to be horrifying

) story. Really great use of the music as well! It fit your story like it was made for it!

Great work!

You know I LOVED this vid, Nikki. Your ideas are always so insanely creative, but this one has to be the winner in the creativeness contest so far.

It was sooo well manipped and the editing was great overall as well. In some parts, the audio was a tiny bit quiet, but it's ok, I still enjoyed it and got the story quite well, so no worries. It was disturbing, but not as disturbing as it could have been, yet there were some very creepy parts, like when Sawyer found out about what's been going on with Kate and the Others. I loved the part after they left the Others, how Kate was really damaged, and you had her really crying in the Catch-22 love scene, etc. And then how Jack and Sawyer were almost working together, and being so protective. I loved that this didn't focus on the triangle so much as each of their love for Kate and how they wanted to protect her. they didn't have time to fight each other, they were just worried about Kate.

It was all so good tho, Nikki! I can only hope to one day have such an awesome idea.

Really, I mean it. This was amazing, especially without Sony Vegas or some fancier program like that. Awesome vid!

I watched this last night & I have to be honest it made me very uncomfurtable. I didn't relise it was going to be so graphic. I'm glad you're warning people because its not an easy subject to deal with. Don't get me wrong The video was amazing, Brillant editing, it made it feel so real but thats why it made me feel so uncomfurtable. And also the music is very creepy

But I have to say congats on taking a chance at trying something diffrent.

This was increadible!!! You know maybe because of the whole MrFreindlymightbegayandkiddnapslittleboys thing but i never really saw him as the dirty rapeist type till now.

The video was chilling and very very convincing!!! Just excellent AU work!!!! Superb!!!

Wow... you really went above and beyond with this video Nikki. I mean....

WOW.

It was a superb video to say the least. You really created an innovative and incredibly convincing AU storyline that isn't extremely outlandish. I mean, something like could have really happened on the show! And you really made it look like it did. To the untrained LOST viewer's eye, Kate really could have been raped! It was hauntingly brutal and dark. I think it's one of the best you've ever made, maybe THE best. Excellent clip choice, use of effects (the grainy look made it feel even darker, I think), and audio editing. Very good. Excellent.
Remember- wow's the word here... WOW

I agree that the grainyness added to the feel. Wow! This was brilliantly edited! And now I want to hate Pickett even more

And that's the first time Tom has seemed truely scary to me. I liked how you brought in the audio of her dad too. gold from me
