I believe the treatise provided by Mark was a highly superficial one. His problem was not reading to much into it, but that he was trying to get something out of it. As you stated, you were not trying to say anything by it. Maybe that is where he is going wrong. I simply wonder, if you are not trying to say anything, then why use a medium of expression such as film to do so?
Anyway, if you were going for grotesque, then yes my friend, it was a success.
