Trivia:

Produced in three months by Hunt and Branit in their spare time. Extensive and highly convincing computer graphics rendering was done on their own two personal computers.

Goofs:

Factual errors: In 73 second (01:13) of the movie airplane hits the car and immediately nose gear closes, so the first part of plane lies on the car. Impact of landing gears to the ground is so high that all the gears are heavily locked by a special locking system and it is simply impossible to close the nose gear by only hitting a relatively small object like a car.

amazing effects movie for a basement production

if you are interested in indie digital and computer-based filmmaking, i would highly suggest you check out the short film "405." this is an incredible example of what can be done with a digital camera and some home computers. you'll be amazed. two guys did this film over a few months with nothing but simple equipment.
