Interesting look at a Horror Short, 12 February 2006
7/10
Author: chris-1779 from United States

I recently saw this movie at the DAM Short Film Fest in Nevada, and I have to say that the concept and production value were great. Especially the score.

Additionally the editing stood out as very clean yet paced well with the movie. Anyone looking to make a short horror movie should check out this piece to see how music is instrumental in telling a story, especially horror with the timing and pacing of the scares so to speak.

The sound design was also well done as is needed in an effective horror movie. This movie shows what can be accomplished with a short. The only item that is a drawback is that while this is a good short movie I am not sure if the movie would be able to be expanded. I know many shorts are calling cards for features but in this case the movie speaks for itself, but doesn't leave room for a feature length movie.
