Saw this opening the Horrorthon in Dublin (before The Host) and it got the festival off to a good start. Sure its a short yeah, but it packs a mean punch, surprisingly good acting, excellent cinematography of the woods and a nice sick pay off at the end.
Its a tight little flick with good use of lighting, notably the transition in tone around halfway through when the true motives of The Faeries is hinted at. The vicousness of the creatures was well implemented with a nice lead-up to it as well before they attack.
The effects of The Faeries themselves was most impressive and can be seen in great detail thanks to the parting shot at the end. The main thing that impressed me the most about this film was the professional look and feel of it. I hadn't heard of the director before, nor seen his previous work, but I'd be interested to see what the future holds for this young Irish talent. Worth checking out if possible!
