Half Life
Directed by: Rob Released: April 1999
Having never played the PC game, I can't tell you whether or not if this movie follows the original story closely or not. It must follow it somewhat, as all the voices used are obviously samples from the game - something that has been done before but has never sounded as professional as this. I believe this movie was release around 3 years ago now, and it's stood the test of time incredibly well. Animation and scenery isn't fantastic by today's standards but the important thing is that it works. Back in it's day I can imagine this being one hell of a flick. It's a shame that the concluding part never materialised. Defiantly worth a watch.

Halloween Sniper, The
Directed by: Will BR Released: October 2001
A nice, concise, and slick Halloween movie from Will here. I like the fast paced intro scenes followed by the equally swift execution of the short movie itself. Not much happens, but then this is a sniper movie so what do you expect? Review by Will Cheyney.

Hanging Dogs of Babylon, The
Directed by: Yuri Johnson Released: February 2003
Normally I'm a fan of Yuri's humor, however this one is far from his best work, and it's just, well, stupid. Maybe one day we will get another 'Next Door', but until then, don't get your hopes up over this.

Hangman (with Unleash the Dragon Preview)
Directed by: Frogman Released: January 2002
From nowhere, Frogman released this cool title. It contains a preview for Frogman's forthcoming '007: Unleash the Dragon' movie, which looks to be very promising, and the main title, 'Hangman'. Hangman is a nice little drama with a decent original story. I really enjoyed it, and it was nice to have something a little different crop up. The music fitted well, and the voice acting was great. As for the preview, well, it was fantastic! There was some highly detailed explosions and scenery - all animated, fitting well with the classic James Bond theme. I just hope that is manages to achieve a James Bond "feel" and not turn out to be just another action flick with a James Bond badge stuck on it. Definitely a movie to keep an eye on.

Hard to Kill
Directed by: Spencer Crabb Released: July 2001
Very enjoyable and neatly animated film by Crabb. This movie wasn't continued (or so I've heard) and I want it to due to the fact that I enjoyed watching it and the action was great and it still sustained a plot at the same time. It's also pretty old and I think it's still very cool and I've watched it almost 10 times.

Hatboy Episode 1
Directed by: Joe Douglas, Mr. Mong Released: September 2004
I've been meaning to add this movie to the Movie Archive for ABSOLUTELY ages! A chain movie by Jpro and Mr. Mong, both newbies at the time, this showed great skill and showed their potential. The scenery in the movie is great, making good use of the expansion and other techniques. The animation is great, and the voices and plot are funny. I would recommend you download this movie and that Jpro and Mr. Mong chronicle further adventures of Hatboy. PS. I'm in this movie, so it HAS to be good. Review by Tom Bown.

Hatred
Directed by: Oliver Bacon Released: May 2001
Here is the latest movie from Oliver Bacon. It is his next action project after 9mm, and very good it is! As you can see from the pictures the scenes are very visually stimulating, and are very interesting to watch. This movie impressed me alot because Oli went for the drama aspect of movie making more than action this time, and I think it paid off! The movie is first class, showing many quality hand-made scenes. Only a couple of criticisms, that the plot was sometimes quite hard to follow, and then movie ended rather abruptly. Still, it shines as an extremely good action short.

Haunted House (Clip)
Directed by: Leslie Wai Released: March 2003
Oooo! Now this looks cool. As you probably already know if you come here often, I am a big fan of Leslie's work... I love it. I love it all! This clip is just a couple of scenes from his next movie, 'Haunted House' that looks pretty damn cool. The animation, as always, is smooth and fastly-paced. A definite download, even if it is only a scene or two, and look out for the movie when it is released!

Heavy Fatality (unfinished)
Directed by: Leslie Wai Released: January 2004
Another unfinished movie by Mr. Wai, and supposedly marking the end to his pretty short-lived 3dmm career. Border-lining on Pointless Action Movie (PAM) status, Heavy Fatality is a non-stop action romp. The combination of Leslie's stylised sphere-built characters and Maltby-esq animation are all the makings necessary for a great futuristic war type movie. There's something about the action that adds a bizarre sense of realism. A fantastic start - just a shame it wont get finished!

High Noon
Directed by: Josh Rosenbohm Released: December 2002
Hnyuk Nyuk. This was pretty funny. It's basically a cowboy movie that's pretty 'serious' until the ending. The cowboys are hand made, and the director did a pretty good job on them. Custom guns too, that also looked good. But the animating of them wasn't very good at all. The whole movie is basically just to make a little joke, and is worth a download.

Highway 57
Directed by: Rhys Halliwell Released: November 1999
This film lives up to the hype and is a nice concise horror movie. It's a serious movie and does very well considering the limitations of 3D movie maker. I think the preview gave too much away though which spoilt the movie a little. It still stands as one of the best examples of 'horror' in 3D Movie Maker.

Hitman Trailer
Directed by: Maverick McGail Released: September 2002
A nice trailer for 'Hitman' here. It seemed to have the right combination of drama and action and not overdoing the slow-mo too much. I don't think the music was the best choice even though it's good music. Some fast classical film music would've been better, but a very good preview. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes.

Hobo Talk
Directed by: Russel Stepan Released: May 2003
The best part of this job is being able to rip apart people's movies. However, in a movie such as this, I don't have to, let me just go over the facts of this movie for you. One, it's not funny, not even at all. Two, the credits go for over 75% of the movie. Three, the producers claim to be 14 and have deep voices. From this I believe you can make your own judgment, here's mine however:

Hobo Talk 2
Directed by: Russel Stepan Released: April 2004
The sequel to Russel's short, 'Hobo Talk'. This one is alot more funny and has a slight storyline to it. Obviously, as the title suggests, there are loads of jokes in it that take the piss out of tramps/hobos - much like Will Cheyney's 'Bobz Bar' movies. Jokes such as drinking piss instead of for lemonade, stealing peoples wallets and using their money as toilet paper (why they don't just keep the money I really don't know), celebrating over a whole used condom etc. etc. - the list goes on. There's a funny ending leaving us with a small cliffhanger at the end. A enjoyable movie with jokes, gore and some average hand made scenery, and like the first Hobo Talk, it takes place in the alleyway in 3dmm's very own Misty City. A recommended download if you want a good laugh!

Hobo Talk 3
Directed by: Russel Stepan Released: November 2004
The third in the series to Hobo Talk, here. Russel picks up the story from where Hobo Talk 2 left off. Joe returns from Canada only to find some big changes have happened to his beloved ally. Additions include a Sex-Bot 2000 (or 5000, I cant remember), a gold bin, plumbing (oh my god!) and the latest addition to the hobo gang, CarneBob, complete with his split personality, Bill. With more jokes, new faces and big surprises, Hobo Talk 3 will really make you laugh if you enjoyed the previous movies in the series. Download instantly!

Holy Poop it's Christmas
Directed by: Tuna Hematoma, Qaz Askew Released: December 2000
A short, old and random Christmas movie by Tuna and Qaz (normal Tuna style then!). Despite it being utterly pointless, I couldn't help but laugh at it - Tuna's sense of humour is an acquired taste, mind. Again, as-per-usual in a Tuna flick, the voice acting is what generally drives and fuels the humour. This is quite a funny movie, but you may find that you have trouble keeping up with what everyone is talking about. It's a worthy download if you like Tunas work, or if you just want a short laugh.

Homeland
Directed by: Blake Walker Released: May 2000
What the funk. I... just... it... what the funk?? Very silly, a little on the humorous side too, but it's not exactly a masterpiece. It's basically about a particularly obese guy called Bob who lets himself into some family's house and eventually takes it over. After it started out pretty good, it got kinda stupid eventually, especially the ending. An adequate watch. Review by Will Bamber.

Homeland 2
Directed by: Spencer Crabb Released: July 2001
What was originally a moderately cute little picture with a few rough edges about a fat guy who single-handedly took over an entire neighbourhood has turned into a parody of itself. The sequel is nothing but the same kind of formula - enslavement of populace, randomly-placed guns, fat people, etc - but a lot worse. Maybe watch if you're especially bored. Review by Will Bamber.

Homeland 3
Directed by: Matt McGowan Released: July 2001
With the previous Homeland movies in the Homeland series being well below par, I wasn't expecting much from the third installment. However, after hearing that the movie was directed by Matt McGowan, maybe, just maybe, the movie may be something a bit more special. And by'gum it is better... The story takes place before the other two Homelands and is streets ahead in terms of character development. The scenery ain't bad, but is more than adequate. The music was also well selected, and suited the movies style. A pretty decent movie, which is worth the download if your looking for something new.

Honochio 1
Directed by: Mickazee Released: March 1998
The first episode of the classic 3dmm series by Mickazee, which unfortunately has not stood the test of time very well. The hand made character design is ok, but the scenery and sounds are horribly out of date. Add that to the fact that the off-beat humor is often hard to grasp, and you have yourself a movie that may have been considered good back in 1998, but nowadays, it just can't stand up to the big boys. Back in it's day, Mickazee was pioneering animation innovation in 3dmm with such a movie, so in that respect this review is a little unfair. Something you may want to keep in mind.

Honochio 2
Directed by: Mickazee Released: June 1998
Then adventures of our character continue. Slightly better than the original, an attempt has been made at some sort of plot this time around, as opposed to random skits. Well, technically that's the case, you can't really tell. Scenery was slightly better; music ok, (except for 'Song 2'), and there was some nice animation in places. Still doesn't really stand the test of time, but it is bearable.

Honochio 3
Directed by: Mickazee Released: December 1999
This movie was AWESOME. Mickazee redeems himself from the last two efforts to make a true 3dmm classic. The plot involves Big-nose trying to take over the world using a brain controlling device. The scenery still sucks, but the animation was good. The voices were funny too, featuring Mickazee himself and a younger Dean Francis. It's a very entertaining movie, with a much more interesting story, improved animation and better use of sound (both FX and voicing). A classic and another definite download.

Horny and the Dead

Horny and the Dead Remake
Directed by: Kim Turley Released: January 2004
Here we have Jeff Ching's "Horny and the Dead", redone by Kim Turley. I didn't care much for the original, nor did many others. But I must say Turley did a great job on giving it some life. I mean he didn't go and revamp the WHOLE thing, basically he just saw the obvious flaws and went "Damn...that sucks..." then fixed it. Most noticable are the scenes. Where stock scenes are used, he changed camera angles every so often. Doesn't sound like much, I know, but in a movie like this, it makes a huge difference. In other stock scenes, he covered some things to make it semi-hand-made. For instance, in the city scene, he covered everything but the park bench with polygons - just to make it not quite so n00bish-looking. Other tweaks include more detailed props, smoother animations (i.e, slightly better fight scenes), dicks suddenly popping in and out of zipperes....kaff....etc. I couldn't pick up any changes with audio, but he did add this nifty soundtrack gizmo thingimabobber (yes, thats the professional term) so you can browse the music. Well... I thought it was neat... Anyways, a readme would've been nice to point out all the changes, but whether you've seen the original Horny and the Dead or not, this is a good thing to download.

Hoshinokabi

?????????!!!!?. This is what you'll be saying to yourself if you get to watch this film. It is also the first Japanese movie added to 3dmm Studio. Personally, I suggest you do just so you can feel what I am feeling right now. From what I can tell this is a Kirby movie, but I have absolutely no idea what's going on, so that's just an educated guess. The cheesey music is the saving grace of this film.

How to Save the World
Directed by: Thomas Saville Released: November 2004
A very 'cute' fairwell movie from Thomas. It's tragic to see such a brilliant writer, voice actor and director leave the community. We're assured that this isn't a direct sequel to 'The Knights of Camelot', but instead, a 7-minute short including the same characters, etc etc. One quiet night after completing all their kitchen chores, the sink starts talking to Sir Bugger and Sir Flodbottom. Guessing that the noise is coming from the dungeons they go and investigate. OK actually, I'm gonna stop there - I wont say anymore than that so I do not to ruin it for you. Rest assured though, it is an extremely good watch :o) It is humorous throughout and it never became a bore - I particularly liked the continuation of the correction joke, 'Time of Old' to 'Times of Now'. The voice acting/dialogue was spot-on and Tom's stylised HMCs and glorious scenery will never grow old. The only niggle I have with is that because I waned to enjoy it so much, the first time I watched I missed a lot of the lines! A definite download.

Humorville 1
Directed by: Dean Francis Released: April 1999
A very old movie, that seems to have been lost over time. I believe this is the only site with this series starter on - but that may be purposeful... It feels like someones first movie - someone's really rubbish first movie. To put a mark on the movies visuals would be unfair, simply because of it's age. Let's just say that it isn't the best you've ever seen. I didn't find any of the jokes funny and I don't like movies that use soundbites from real movies. If you are a genuine fan of the series then this might be for you, but I really can't recommend it to anyone else.

Has it really been a whole year in the making? It certainly has and it's worth the wait. One of the funniest movies in 3DMM in a long time, this is a nice collection of humorous skits including one with Jeff Ching being Jeff Ching (though I felt it was a little overlong). Some very nice animation here too and the bloopers are hilarious. If you don't like this movie, I'll eat my hat. A definite must-see movie.

A funny 4th in the Humorville series. Not as good as 3 but it defiantly has some good parts. The animation and scenery is consistently good, and the movie runs for a long time (over 10mins). A lack of music I felt and a few voices were too similar to each other. But this movie is a fun watch and I would recommend it as a very good laugh.

Humorville Final
Directed by: Dean Francis Released: May 2004
The fifth and final installment in Dean's famous Humorville series, and very funny it is too. It tells the story of how Humorville was formed, and of its eventual demise. Most of the skits are hilarious and will have you laughing a lot. There are some bad moments where the movie falls flat on its face, mostly the start, which goes on for quite a while. Overall, this is an awesome ending to the Humorville series, and a recommended download.
