Thanks so much for checking out Maddog - bit of a long road getting this one made, so we're really grateful to be able to share it with you all on DUST. We love hearing your feedback and always happy to chat, so if you have any thoughts, comments or questions about the film, fire away!

Thoroughly enjoyed your movie. Especially the young woman as an outlaw in Armour. Reminds me of Ned Kelly. Think of naming a full length movie? Explaining her rise as an outlaw?

This is perfect, Mad Max, Steampunk, science Fiction videography. This little film easily competes with some of the best SyFy I've ever seen. It stands shoulder to shoulder with Mad Max, Star Wars, Blade Runner etc. It's too bad that Hollywood or Disney doesn't have the ability anymore to match this story or even the common sense to beg Matt to turn it into a full length film. "Did you remember the Whiskey?" Left be breathless with laughter!!! God bless!!!

@@clevertaco328 We all don't perceive the things in the world around us the same way. In fact, the world is much more complicated than any one individual can fully appreciate. Perhaps I see stuff in this video from a different perspective than you do. Most of the videos I see on Dust are; in my opinion unmitigated crap. When I do see excellent quality as I do in "The Ballad of Maddog Quinn," I try to praise it heavily. I want to encourage the artists to produce more. I'm not laying down anything other than my own honest opinion. I would be curious to know what you think is good. Do you have the courage to publicly proclaim what you think is an excellent Dust video? I suspect not.

@@fjdarlingdidn't know that Blade Runner, Mad Max and Star Wars were Dust projects. Otherwise, the commentator above said everything correctly, you are comparing an excellent but amateur short film with recognized full-length masterpieces. The short film is well-directed, but it does not have any original idea of its own; it is a set of clichés and a collective image of everything that the authors like. But the script is weak, and the final "you brought the wrong thing" plottwist is too hackneyed to be funny, so the climax doesn't work out very well. The film is good, but it cannot be called self-sufficient or a masterpiece.

I can't find the words to say how much I enjoyed this union of old Sergio Leone-style westerns with the world of Mad Max! Magnificent short film. Praise also to the soundtrack that I would love to listen to on Spotify! Now I hope to see the episode about the recovery of the whiskey bottle!

what a fantastic piece of art you made here is unbelievable... if this was a full length feature movie you'd be right up there with classics like "the good, the bad and the ugly" and many other western movies, only yours would have Westpunk style and they just be old school westerns... The jokes were well timed, and not overdone, the story great, also give a big thumbs up to the lead actor and the little kid that hunts rabbits... Damn, I could watch your style any day...

This was very good. Good direction, and good production value. And good production value not in the way of money spent but in the good use of money and available resources. This was a polished project that probably didn't take a relatively large amount of money to make. Where other projects that might have a small budget may not be able to escape obvious signs of not having a larger budget to prevent from looking cheap. And the convenience of antagonist having no aiming skills at all with guns was made up for by the clever ending. Extra nod to her subtle use of facial expressions at the end. That's an underappreciated skill.
