A nobleman and his valet arrive in the green alongside Blood Creek – a place of dueling and honor for many generations. They await justice against someone who wronged him and soon a man approaches. Unfortunately the man who approaches is someone who has also challenged another to a duel and has scheduled for the same place and the same time, leading to a little confusion.
There are some things I will probably always find funny and one of them is the impression of pompous Englishmen from bygone days saying "good day sir, I said GOOD DAY" done by John Oliver and other such comedians and it is for this type of humor where I really enjoyed Duel at Blood Creek. The film is very much built on the absurdity of the characters and their pomposity in combination with the ridiculousness of the situation and it works very well. Of course the script is a big part of this as it comically builds across the short, but the performances are also a big part of this.
Everyone buys into the "Good Day Sir!" delivery and it is consistently amusing while building some genuinely funny moments. The direction and the look of the film is very professional – it never feels like a TV sketch (which it could easily have done) but retains the looks and feel of a period drama even as it becomes sillier. I found it to be a very funny short film and enjoyed it a great deal.
