Soon as he cracked open the window in the bathroom, I was like "Damn dude, you couldn't even go one night without f***ing up."

[@nimishtanna]

🤣 True that. But that's generally the question we ask when characters act all arrogant and make these mistakes. Having said that, it's also fair for the character to make that choice instead of staying scared based on a winky warning by an absurd homeowner

[@Kryptic1046]

@@nimishtanna - Fair point, and he at least was trying to roll out first thing in the morning, so I give him credit for that (even though it was too late by then.) Either way, this was a good short and well-acted.

@@Kryptic1046 Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching :)

You only had ONE job dude...

he is so cute moving the snail so he doesn't stand on it 😍

[@Shawnsatisfiedwife]

Why is it almost impossible for people to just follow simple directions i understand curiosity but it did kill the cat.

[@kristinunderdog4687]

Why o why do they NEVER LISTEN!!! If it says dnt do something by all means take it as u shld definitely do it🤦‍♀️lol good short! Luv these mini movies 👊👍

[@cw2497]

Thanks for letting me in on your horror short film! Enjoyed the scare!

[@WynneL]

*MUCH* scarier and cooler than the vast majority of Hollywood horror films. I loved this. Criminally under-viewed.

[@mx_lei]

Wow! Several jump scares!! Brilliant short!! Could be a feature film - imagine that amount of suspense being built up over ninety minutes!! 😱😱

[@souichinoodles3401]

The suspense music was a little over used i think personally

[@Msmary98-98]

Ew! He didn’t even wash flush or wipe after using the bathroom! That was the scary part

[@danielbyers6700]

If you notice no one ever wipes or wash their hands after taking a shit in horror movies. I think it's a true sign that they're about to be the killer's next victim.

[@jessicawhayne905]

Bruh I’m watching this with earbuds. The sound is amazing. Has me on edge. It always makes me mad when they don’t just follow the rules. 😩like bro. That note clearly said to go in before sunset. And he’s out here like ima just get my bags right when the lights turn on.ok one night down. Bruh that was close. Just shut the window already. Gosh. Bro just pack up and leave.

[@jessicawhayne905]

Oh my gosh shut the dang window

[@Shawnsatisfiedwife]

Agreed just follow the freaking rules

[@reactolite]

Serves him right for not following instructions! :-)

[@dancegurukool2142]

What a movie mannnnnnn.... Nailed in few minutes.... I watched this movie on loop.... Every single frame is so thoughtful.... Fresh concept, intelligent writing, fantastic direction , fabulous editing and apt sound FX..... Bingo

[@lisagallo4389]

Totally awesome! Thank you!!!

[@angelbr9618]

This fool had one job lol. How many ghosts you know in horror movies WARNS you that you going to die if you don't follow directions. If i was in his situation i would be grateful for the heads up.

guy takes a snail making its way to grass, on a high water fountain lol the evilness

[@NoJusticeNoPeace]

Jump scares are the lowest form of horror. Dread is harder to pull off. This could have been terrifying if you'd had the courage to leave the jump scares out.

[@mrzain3456]

Snail!! oh man why you put me up from where i started i barely passed half path yet.

[@Solararisa]

It wouldn't be a horror character if they don't follow the rules and make stupid decisions, lol.

[@nimishtanna]

@zhongli3652 I agree with you! Perhaps curiosity killed the cat but not-following-rules and making-stupid-decisions was fate pushing the cat to tell a cautionary tale.

[@crochetcrush.8788]

Only giving it to Asian students 😂😂😂😂😂

Haha we were worried about this while writing and making this film too. Seems like our ghost has some sort of asian fetish. Just kidding ofcourse

[@whiskeygirl8723]

It was pretty ok but the Bird chirping near the end was SO loud and annoying!!!!! Really didn’t need for it to go on for that long either because it ruined the best part of the climax…

Thanks for your note, Whiskey Girl. This is a practice film for us so feedback like this will definitely help us in making better films. Cheers
