London filmmaker Rob McLellan;s straightforward short film ABE takes some heavy minutes out of Silence of the Lambs, speciifically where serial killer Buffalo Bill interacts with the girl in the well. The twist: gender enraged psychopath making a “girl dress” is replaced by Robot Butler looking for a human suit. Great!

Very creepy and very cool!! Do you know if they’re ever going to make a full movie of this?
I really don’t know. Someone told me about it earlier, and this is all I know about at the moment. If I hear of anything, I will post an update. 🙂
Thanks!
Wow, this is a pretty neat clip…great dialogue from the robot.
Yeah, it is really well done; nice usage of the original material/scene from Silence of the Lamb. 🙂
I’m really glad you mentioned that in your post, as it was familiar but I am not sure I would have figured it was from Silence of the Lambs (although the moth shot might have helped). Cheers!
