Headcrabs, crowbars, and HEV suits all make appearances in this great fanmade Half-Life short, directed by Ian James Duncan and shot for $3,000 at a cottage in Hollywood, according to the folks who made it.

As they write on YouTube:

Finally see Gordon Freeman in the flesh in this cinematic horror short based on the video game Half-Life. Yes there will be headcrabs...

Shot by fans over two nights in a cottage in the middle of Hollywood for about $3000.

It all started with the comment "Hey you would make a great live action Gordon Freeman, let's make a fan film". A year later we finally got around to it.

Enjoy, and try not to get too angry at the sacrilege of Gordon Freeman talking.
