10/10

Ok, this is something everybody should check out!
I totally fell in love with "BlinkyTM", an absolutely stunning and incredible-looking indie-short about Blinky, one of the creepiest robots I've ever seen. 

It's thrilling, tense and extremely atmospheric over the whole runtime. Youngster Max Records delivers a terrific and believable performance, the camera work is fantastic (check out the very last shot), the suburban settings look cool and stylish, and the soundtrack is pretty gripping 

- but that all is nothing compared to the main attraction Blinky, a brilliantly-designed robot who constantly says things like "No problem!" or "I just wanna be your friend" with a friendly but unsettling voice, and who has the ability to do everything you tell him to do. Really everything.

Simply excellent! Hope they turn this into a full-length feature...
