Very cool film. Needed more violence, but the story is great.

Thank you so much for the link! Well worth watching. On such a tiny budget, the result is really stunning. Very professional and engaging story, too. Here's the home page with an HD version of the movie: http://www.bornofhope.com/

I've heard of Star Wars fanfilms (and even watched one)but this is the first time I've found out about a LOTR fanfilm.

There are other LOTR fan films too , TheBlackHole .

I watched it at last . It was better then i thought . There are maybe some things to criticize but as a fan film it is very good .
And i have seen many supposedly professional films that are much much worst  :)

The casting is good . Acting not so bad (Orcs were not so good ).  Costumes are good .
With 10 minutes less , it would be better . CG could be better in some places .
But i loved the characters in the end of the film .

If i had made this film i would be proud  :)
