Mr. Dentonn: Another horror short that fails to entirely deliver

Though I like shorts I like it frustrating when their scale is simply too big for the available runtime. If the credits roll and I feel like it needed more, it's failed. And sadly that's certainly what we have here.

It tells the story of a girl and her little brother who find themselves under attack from a mysterious entity (That looks suspiciously like the Babadook from the same year).

I get the impression from this that it was made in hopes of getting funding for a full length feature, clearly they didn't get it and I'm not surprised.

Though it looks the part and is definitely well made I have to say when the credits began I was left unsatisfied. It hadn't told a story, it was more like a snippet from a feature length movie and that didn't sit right with me.

Well made, but somewhat pointless.

The Good:

Looks great

The Bad:

Ultimately feels a tad empty
