2AM: The Smiling Man | short film

[@dunk1443]

When he's crouching and then he gets up and starts doing a walk like a "sneaky cartoon hunter" type of thing, that's a whole new level of pshyco, if this was me in real life i would of died right there from a heart attack

[@justateapot3847]

The part that makes this scary for me is the fact that the smiling man never directly looks at the main character until the end either. He stares at something vaguely above him. For the entire video, you’re waiting for him to lock eyes with the MC or even us (the audience), but his face is just tilted slightly out of reach. It adds to the horror aspect, since a lot of the time, the “monster” in these horror stories usually stares directly at the viewer to make *us* feel like we’re in a helpless situation with the MC. But in this, we kind of want the smiling man to just look at us so we can see some form of humanity within him. But the moment he does, you can’t make out any details on his face because it’s shielded by that manic smile and the lighting. It gives you more of the illusion that the smiling man isn’t a “man”, and more of just a thing that’s pretending to be a man but doesn’t look quite right.

[@DefenseNerd]

[@joshluke8457]

[@sierras.2467]

In the original story, it's just a man who is quote "completely insane." Everything about this video is accurate, up to the running. After that, the protagonist got away. There was no jump scare at the end where the guy popped up out of nowhere. It was a true story of a bizarre and creepy encounter late at night, but the story ended there - after the chase. I think this rendition is really well done, but personally I hate jump scares. They're so overdone, it's not scary for me and just made it seem predictable. Idk.

The creepiest part about this and others like it is the fact that it makes no sense. It shouldn’t be happening but it is, and this adds to the confusion of whether you should fight or flee. For years and years since I was a kid, every Sunday evening at 6:40 pm I would suddenly feel a sense of doom with extreme anxiety and panicked paranoia with a feeling like I was both everywhere and nowhere. I got to where I’d deliberately force myself to be asleep during that hour. Never did figure it out and watching this brought back those incidents even though I haven’t had this issue in over a decade now.

Well if it helps you be more scared, this follows almost exactly an alleged actual encounter - the smiling but unseeing expression, the crossing the street, the strange dancing, the turning away but then turning back and running full speed, etc. This and one or two other “encounters” were dubbed the Grinning Man or the Smiling Man, depending.

This is literally my greatest fear. Walking alone in the middle of the night, and you see a person...but not quite...a person. It's as if it's trying to be a person, but even as you walk to the other side to get pass it, it follows you to the same curb. You look behind you, and it's now dashing towards you. The next thing you know, a knife is lodged to your stomach, you fall down to the floor and the last thing you see is this creature smiling, as it drive the knife through every part of your body with cold-blooded passion.

Then my phone died and I had to find a main street to figure out where the fk I was. Looked left, looked right, then I blacked out. Woke up in some random apartment, a mattress laid out in the living room for me with no covors. no sign of butt rape so that was good, still had my clothes on. I looked thru the 2 bedrooms and nobody was home, just family pictures on the walls, nobody i recognized. found my shoes in front of another door of the apartment next door. Then i just left to go home. In hindsight, maybe should have waited to get the story and see who helped me. I went back a couple weeks later and knocked, nobody home, asked a neighbor who lived here and they didnt know. idk but it was kinda trippy. I dont recomend drinking too much But I do recommend driving yourself and charging your phone often. maybe even bring a portable charger. this was all before lyft and uber of course but even then you gotta wait in some random neighborhood if things go sour wherever you are. phone could even break maybe bring a spare xD or atleast a tazer

This has managed to capture all the essence of a nightmare. I've had dreams like this before where I've been alone somewhere late at night. Feeling as though I'm the only person in the world, when something appears near me. It works on such a primal fear. Horror film makers should really learn from the people who make short films like this. These are a lot more terrifying than the conjuring movies could ever be.
