[@mookinbabysealfurmittens]

Yeah, it starred Viggo Mortensen. I think it was called "The Road". But with true sincerity, I have to say that this piece was very well done. Foley artists are so underrated: I loved the sound design, and the startling sounds that were so well executed. No jump-scare BS.

[@krystalcalvert6756]

I've watched the road several times ....ana by far a well deserving Oscar worthy performance by Viggo. ..... & the kid from " Let me in" I cry my eyes out EVERYTIME I watch that movie. If our planet succumbs to that....then that is True horror 😨😱😱😱😱

My thoughts exactly!!!!!!!

[@jheart8031]

*Spoilers* It was upsetting when the stronger older brother got killed. I mean, what was the younger one thinking. Like that house wouldn't be a beacon to everyone within a 100 mile radius. The older one lost his life trying to indulge in his little brother's need for comfort. But in the end, the younger brother had to grow up real fast and lose the little bit of optimism he had left. I really liked this.

[@meghanmitchell6401]

I think the older brother realized that there's more to living than surviving. I'm the eldest of four and I know I would have taken a few risks to try to give my siblings back a little humanity and joy.

I know a lot of people wouldn't classify this as a horror film judging from the comment section, but I find this the worst kind of horror. The horror of other people and what mankind can do. Also I don't find horror films scary (since I was a kid anyways), it's the story and emotion I like about them, my favourite genre! I really enjoyed this one, thank you.

[@virginialewis8046]

To me, this is just my opinion, the fact that something like this could possibly happen in the future that’s what makes it a horror film to me. I loved it but if I can actually see it then yea it’s def horror

[@kathrynblingliciousnesshacks]

I enjoyed watching this short film. The change in perspective the young man experienced, now that he has to be the protector, was well executed...he passed judgment too freely on the older guy who shot the female character. 👍🏾 BTW... I had an ache in my bones when the older guy stood up in front of that window. I just KNEW the shot was coming...it was still chilling.

[@jessicajellison705]

"He passed judgement too freely" TF you mean! Those people who killed his brother, yeah I get shooting them. But that girl was unarmed and innocent and he straight up just shot her. How is passing judgement on him wrong exactly?

This short is a perfect example of how hard it is to explain to kids about the perils of life and that we, ( adults ) only have their safety in mind. They often think that adults are overreacting and sucking all the comfort and fun out of their lives. This short should be required viewing for older kids. Life is a tougher teacher than your parents. Acting and story telling, superb !

[@jonathanporter5223]

This was a fantastic short film! The actors were spectacular and did A+ of a job. The stark reality of a post apocalyptic world could be as harsh as the winter you're trying to survive through. This film showed what humanity just might come to be like in the rawest form of "kill or be killed" survival. Excellent job to everyone involved with this project. Cheers!

[@ItsAllLove4Real]

His brother says stay here....What does Jim do? He walks right up to the house and goes in...I fell clean OUT! This movie is pure excellence...OMG!! I wasn't ready for dude to get his head blown off😱

This is one of the best short films I have ever seen on you tube.

[@realtester1984]

Man, the whole time he was standing in front of the window , I just knew he was gonna bite it. But it still shocked me and made me sad. Very effective on showing how quickly the younger boys perspective on life changed, being nonviolent and wanting to spare lives , to take no chances.

[@mrpalmer3978]

This is certainly the best short I have seen on this channel so far. The older brother was great, but sadly dropped his guard focusing on the younger brother. As a long, 120 minute film, this would've definitely won some major length awards. Its like an alpine 'The Road'. It also makes you wonder what the other groups live like. Everyone just out doing what they gotta do to survive, like these brothers.

[@screamfestla]

Thanks for insightful thoughts! Stoked you really enjoyed this short. It was a student film.

[@jackcristo1628]

Great work! I really enjoyed the themes at play. Any indulgence of comfort or joy leaves us more vulnerable, but what good is a life without them?

[@markferguson3745]

When people are randomly killed for their stuff, you can count on two things; bad things have already happened, and, very likely, worse is to come. Had an old friend who for years had been a "survivalist" .This came to a rapid conclusion when I pointed out(in clear, no uncertain terms) that there would be nothing left to live for.Sometimes you do have to just "survive", but the goal should be to live well.The difference between following your "bliss", and going by animal instinct.There are plenty better animals than us already here. Good Flick .

[@SashaChihuahua]

This is by far my favorite genre, especially the apocalyptic Zombie type. I been getting into watching the horror shorts. This is by far one of my favorite zombie ones, everything about this was excellent!!! The only thing I would want different is more!!! Love it, great job!!!

[@Mishalex]

Great short film. I often wonder... does mankind even deserve to survive if we lose our sense of humanity and community after a catastrophic event? Frankly, I wouldn't want to live in a world where people lost all sense of camaraderie and compassion and devolved into the worst kind of tribalism. But I personally don't believe that's actually possible. Mankind has survived not just because of our raw intelligence, but more significantly, because of our ability to collaborate with one another to solve problems, at least, that's what I have to believe. Stay safe out there, everybody. One love.

[@mishie618]

I can't believe this was a student film.. this was fantastic. I loved it in a horrific way. So many emotions..

[@elizabethgaspodnetich4322]

That was sad as hell, mostly because it is a possible true senaryo which really chills you to the bone. I really like this film!! I almost fell out of my chair at the gunshot though! Didn't see that coming! Well made, well acted, and well directed!

[@mgm57901]

Anybody else still curious about the information the older brother was about to share regarding outside? Actually now in retrospect, the fact that I am wondering about that makes it all the more well executed. How often does the death scene take place in the middle of a sentence, let alone one where new information was about to be shared. That was well done.

[@billyandrew]

A brutal, but probably realistic view of events in a post apocalyptic world, unfortunately, where only the few retain their humanity and pay the price. I wonder if the boy would have pulled the trigger, had the stranger been a female and I'm guessing, changed as he now is, that he would. A visceral film that turns the thoughts to darker matters and one for my collection. Kudos to all involved!

[@deeannmoore6463]

Daaaayyyyaaammmm. I've probably seen thousands of short films. This one is my favorite. Two thumbs and big toes up!

[@jessicajellison705]

I still don't get it tho...why were they all out to kill each other? Didn't make sense. To survive? Sure. But why would killing other human beings, who you could make allies with to survive even better a reasonable thing? Just shoot every person you don't know without even trying to figure out if they mean you harm or not?? That makes no sense. If I was trying to survive, I'd go find as many people as I could to help me.

[@deeannmoore6463]

Oh yes! Disturbing isn't the word. When the brother got shot it was an abrupt WTF moment, for sure. But nobody is expecting that to happen. You have to agree that the timing was pretty great.

[@Noodlemonkey7]

This isn’t really horror, but more like dread. This is something we all fear and it’s not too far away from us either. This is a stark dark reality that very well may already be coming true as the world unfolds into chaos. I give this film Major props for the indirect character building and the use of nature vs nurture. 10/10

Cov-19 is nowhere near as lethal as we feared or were led to believe, however, the scientists, in labs throughout the world, have far more deadly things to play about with and there's all those nuclear arms and conventional weapons. We humans are just a blink in the eyes of history and our 'civilisation' just a shielded veneer to protect us from the dark.

Jem should've known such houses would attract pillagers, which is probably why older bro didn't want to stay, but lil bro wants a comfy bed and wouldn't listen.

Horror can be anything that causes feelings of shock, disgust or fear. This would be a very horrible thing to experience in real life, so it's definitely horror.

Even though I didn't understand what the AFTERMATH was or is about in this movie, it was pretty decent..!! Not too much blood, no zombies or any type of monster except the human ones, and not too much talking. If there was a small exert in the beginning to let people know just a little bit more about what the movie was about besides the horrific nature of us human beings, but to let us know how they all got to or into the situations that were at hand. But all in all, it was and is a pretty good short-movie. I liked it..!! 2 👍👍 for little gem..!! Good job guys, and would like to see a little sequel to let us know how it got to where it was in the world, and to see a little bit more about what happens to the boy and who the characters were to each other..!! 👍

The real horror is when the kid gave in to paranoia and became as bad as the rest of them. Social animals don't survive forever in isolation. How long until the marauders turn on each other? How long until the one that's left runs out of bullets? Until the kid who followed big brother's hardass example gets pneumonia or breaks an ankle in the middle of the winter woods? This approach to "survival" is gonna keep them alive in the short term, but long term? They're toast. It'll be the ones who grouped together and cooperated who actually survive.

[@pakde8002]

I don't know how to "like" this film. As an oldest brother I can relate to this film. Trying to take responsibility for a obnoxiously self absorbed younger sibling is hard enough under any circumstances but in a survival situation you would hope the attitude would get over the maturity mark a lot sooner. On the larger theme of universal brotherhood, as in "do unto your brother as you would have done unto yourself", it's hard to imagine society breaking down so far to assuming everyone is a threat to be shot on sight. Despite conditioning by antisocial video games etc I believe there is an archetypal instinct towards not only self preservation on the micro scale but also on the macro scale and therefore to be murderous in times of scarce population is counterproductive to proliferation of our species.
