The Silent Dagger

.

This is the new re-edited version of the 2nd short film I made as a student in 1996. It’s a suspense thriller about an artist who gets involved in a murder.

.

Note: I fixed some minor editing errors and re-uploaded this film in Oct, 2024.

In Jan 2025 I uploaded it again in 1080p HD, which is the best possible picture quality.

The original was made  in black & white after all the colour footage I shot came out green. The colour has been restored and the film itself has been completely re-structured with a new beginning and end, a new title and a new soundtrack.

Some of the footage was missing from my rushes so a small section in the middle is in black and white with a colour effect on it taken from the original version. The new ending was created from some random footage I shot while we were walking home after finishing the shoot.

The re-edit took me about 7 weeks to complete.

This is the best quality version 1080p HD [6.26GB] which is also uploaded on Rumble. The one on Brighteon is the 720p version and on Bitchute it has a smaller file size (limit is 2GB). The older version is up on Vimeo with a reduced file size, I’ve reached my upload limit on there so can’t upload the newer version.
