Final Touch (A Horror Short Film)

[@owens_bricks]

Came for the Diary of a Wimpy Kid fan film, stayed for amazing films like this!!

[@AustinAndGamerz]

AMEN BROTHA!

Ok genuinely after watching it I really really enjoyed how the ENTIRE thing itself IS the short film it’s a story in a story and I really like that

[@koletheftoms]

I wanna see more of Isaac, he seems really good at this stuff

[@DryRamenNoodles]

I watched this on a call with my friend, we are 17 and it took us 2 hours to finish it because we kept pausing to talk about the scenes and how excited we are to make movies together. I have so much to say but I don’t want to make a super long essay in the comments about my passions and goals. Point is, you all fr cooked 🗣️💯🔥

[@TheFruitJar]

:) Your comment made my day. Keep being creative!

[@DryRamenNoodles]

@@TheFruitJar That means a lot to me, I hope to inspire people the way filmmakers like you inspire me. Maybe you’ll come across one of my films in the future!

[@flatbeek]

theres something so raw about how even after all of the blood smeared across the tree from all four people, its shown at the end as having little to no impact on the final work. it alludes to these ideas of how people never see the process or everything an artist may have sacrificed in the final work. that ultimately everything you pour into such a massive piece of your work could never be seen. the only ones that know were the ones there to experience the process of it. i love the way it shows art as a process and how it affects the finished piece. we saw the process, we saw the lipstick and the blood and how hard it echoed that it just "needed a little more work." then when all was said and done and time had past, most of that wasn't visible. if anyone just walks by the tree they'll see a face and wonder how it got there or who did it. we witnessed the suffering both the artist and their friends had to go through. i wasn't expecting this to have such a level of intention in what it's saying. i was ready to watch spooky movie. what the fuck.

[@TheFruitJar]

Thanks for your comment, I’m so glad you got something out of the film :)

[@jp_jdn]

Such a shame this has such little views. You guys have so much talent that is so under appreciated. From the among us short, to the diary of a wimpy kid movies. You guys are awesome don’t give up you’ll catch a huge break just keep doing what you do best

[@nrgbunni.]

They should apply to get it put on alter channel that helps small independent filmakers get more eyes on their short films

[@jp_jdn]

@@nrgbunni. Idk Alter is way more disturbing then this and has a different kinda vibe of horror then Alter’s

[@C4d3ll]

"What is your favorite movie?" This. This is perfection.

[@FrigusSolis]

The cinematography and switches between filming and reality was beautiful.

[@ColinComfort]

This should be up for an award. This is one of the best short films I’ve ever seen

[@n0tTwoPoint0h]

THIS WAS YOUR BEST FILM YET. I really loved the slow craziness of the character

[@lukes.cam07]

Oh my god I loved this so much. At first I was like “oh cool they’re adding how they produced it in between each clip of the short film” BUT THEN THOSE BTS CLIPS BECAME THE SHORT FILM TOO AND UGH IT WAS SO GOOD. You guys honestly never fail to amaze your audience, another great piece of work.

[@Moonlightwolf008]

Got chills while watching this, especially the palm cut part. The fact that most of it was about creating cinema in the film makes it more unique and interesting than other horror films. I love it!!

[@genevieve1726]

I have no clue how to describe how intresting and twisted the story line was this was honestly incredible i had to watch it a second time just to fully wrap my head around this it was such a unique way of telling a story keep going your work is incredible intresting and unique

[@marusptz]

can't believe this didn't go viral. everything in this film is perfection from the plot to the camera work AND COLOURS I really liked the colours it was incredibly beautiful

[@kodekYT]

This is definitely the most interesting project you guys have done so far, inspiring, horrifying and done in such a small time, truly cinema 🙌

[@TuccanFilms-no5yb]

This film is incredible! The whole film was perfectly written and shot. And the ending was amazing and scary. That last shot was so eerie and unsettling.

[@Jigger609]

I like how its like a movie within a movie

[@Telesco827]

Man this is probably one of the best short films I’ve seen in a very long time. The creativity is unmatched, the shots are so well done and I just can’t get over how the idea of an over-obsessive artist translates to both the film that they are shooting, and themselves in real life. Awesome stuff.

[@skate.goober]

oh my gosh this is amazing. i love how this is so much different than what you usually see. i can't believe this doesn't have more views. this is just… wow. gave me chills.

[@kurosaki-kageyoshi3164]

Wow just wow that was rlly good for a short film better then some real films tbh

[@Loladosetsuff]

I love how you’re making the behind-the-scenes in the movie of the movie they’re gonna make for the movie

[@caroline-he9vw]

so META, black swan WISHES

[@mrfriendly504]

the filmaking was amazing. And Peter's score was phenomenal. It fit with film amazingly.

[@chloetothemax]

i laughed at the little detail of using a mug that says coffee on it and him using it for blood

[@leahabukhaled3095]

been waiting all month for this. IM OBSESSED. THE PLOT TWIST?!

[@nukeacola3]

I love this. The cinematography and literally everything else is great.

[@GLawrenceonly]

This literally feels like it was shot in the early 2000's, I watched your Diary parody and that was awesome but this is Amazing bro

[@BradyShotsProductions]

Bro that was such a good film 🎥 Everything from the acting right down to the effects was spot on 👍🏻 Keep It Up You Guys 👏🏻 Happy Halloween 🎃

[@TheFruitJar]

Thank you so much! Happy Halloween!

[@ALX65]

Crazy how much time and work it takes to make a short film. You guys did good. you guys are quality filmmakers💙

[@gravy.and.potatoes]

so in love, you guys! this film really showed how you all have grown! it breaks the traditional fourth wall in so many ways- taking time to make sure the audience can't tell if it is reality or film. I continue to be impressed by you all, and I can't wait for more. I will definitely be sharing more Fruit Jar productions with people I know because the Fruit Jar is for everyone and your art is incredible.

[@ShadowHoper]

I couldn’t think of a better way to spend 38 minutes!

[@samanthaparker6]

I’ve been counting down the days until this was posted, IM SO EXCITED ITS FINALLY HERE!! It’s amazing!!! Y’all are so creative fr

[@scottiejsrockrollsports5547]

Great job! Love the way you shot it. And the way you slowly built up and reveal the madness in Sadibou. Nice job by all of you.

[@yucky3770]

i’m gonna cry and i’m only two minutes in, i love you guys and your videos i’m exited to see what’s next

[@yucky3770]

finished the video, WTF YALL ??? this is a masterpiece

[@FNAFBRO2010]

Think all i can say is that this short film was amazing, dark and the humour when you guys were doing a bts like video. 11/10

[@LaMunequita]

BROOOOO THE MUSICCC ALWAYS HITSS

[@LaMunequita]

still gonna rewatch though because this one is so nice to look at i love it❤️❤️

[@lightningbomb78]

HOW HAS THIS ONLY GOT 9.9K VIEWS IT DESERVES 10 MILLION THIS SHIT IS SO GOODDDDD

[@FaithNeske]

I found this channel a few days ago and it’s truly been an inspiration. I found a passion for filmmaking way back in middle school when I started taking video production classes. I’m almost out of high school and I’ve been too scared to make anything outside of class. I found your channel and you guys are practically living my dream and you’ve given me the motivation to make it my reality.

[@TheFruitJar]

Don’t be afraid to start creating things, there’s no one else in the world who can make your movie, but you, even if it’s rough at first you’ll stumble into finding a voice and making something completely unique and special and that’s as worthwhile as anything.

[@mrfriendly504]

Great job! The people that didn't watch it are missing out big time!

[@CinematStudios]

Great film! Excited to see what you guys have going for you in the future!

[@Exis7ance]

so amazingly great, cant wait to edit this

[@1b4bce]

great work guys! loved it.

[@blackandyellowproductions]

I saw this on Patreon first but this is honestly insane man I can’t wait to see where you go with this. As a inspirational outlet your channel provides exactly that, inspiration for my films. Thank you for this.

[@skylightstudios]

Talk about how to make a short film original and cinematic! A story within a story and such a beautiful way of pacing it all together. This channel and this team is exactly what I strive to be!

[@icepear9007]

This might just be my favorite horror short film of all time.

[@stuartrose3402]

Congrats y'all! This is such a fun watch.

[@andrewislastyear1118]

I was not expecting to actually enjoy watching a hybrid between found footage and cinematic but you guys pulled it off!

[@thestickdude539]

Been waiting for this all month and it did not disappoint, good work all of you!

[@HenrySimmons1225]

Third, also I am so excited to watch this! It looks so cool so far! Just watched it, it's awesome! Y'all are so incredibly talented!

[@TordParker2.0]

This was amazing, I really enjoyed watching this!!!:), Y’all did a great job.

[@RysStudios]

This is definitely spooky fun awsome job guys 👍

WHY DONT YOU HAVE 10 MILL SUBS?!?!??!you are just too good for someone with under 100k subs

:) We’re getting close!! Hopefully eventually we’ll get there. Thanks for the kind words!

[@Things123abc]

keep up the good work man@@TheFruitJar

[@HUNCHOJOSHI]

It’s crazy, I wrote a very similar script with a similar plot back in the day (around 2017). I very much enjoyed this and can’t wait to see what else y’all come up with in the future. Keep up the great work!

[@85MM85]

I love your work so much and really enjoy the stuff you guys put out. My dream is to work in the field of videography, and seeing this inspires me, thanks

[@collaborativekiwistudios1191]

Looking forward to watching this

[@brother8278]

Enjoyed it super good

[@maxpixels]

Time to get the popcorn for this 🍿

[@Syedvision09]

Really enjoyed this. Thank you for the constant inspiration as always and I'm glad your original films are doing well since it's what I've always wanted to see and what I would want to see more of from you guys. Fan films are cool too but you guys are such talented filmmakers that I really enjoy watching your original stories, probably even more then the fan films honestly.

[@hoxzo1810]

im here before this blows up

[@tylerbricker3552]

This was actually incredible, don't stop creating!

[@_braddi]

This is so good! Great work as always.

[@LukeIoveless]

Very interesting, I like the new style, I personally think it'd be cooler if he hung himself at the end and you just saw his body hanging there. But either way it's a really cool film.

[@LukeIoveless]

For some reason the trailer has more views than the film. It'll catch up, this is a masterpiece.

[@MiaPia753]

I absolutely adore your channel and I’m in awe of all the projects you guys make. Thanks for inspiring me to create my own projects, 10/10 film:)

[@Amararara]

That was really excellent! I loved the muted orange tang of the film, it gave a tangy feeling that suited it. I think the story was amazing! I think it would have been cool if when he killed them, the blood turned dark because of oxidization so then he could only use his own. But other than that it was so cool! I'm so happy you guys are still making what you love and don't ever give up.

[@aaron_osborne]

After long last I found time to watch Final Touch. The spontaneity of your film is incredible.

[@JaydenVarghese]

This was done really well, I was fighting to keep myself from clicking off the video in discomfort. Really awesome stuff.

[@HenrySimmons1225]

This was one year ago woooooww. Still, this is a crazy awesome film, you guys are amazing!

[@c_r4bbit]

Aw hell nah I did not expect that ending whaaaaaat 😨

[@mrjproductions7518]

Nice movie about a movie8/10 And would I like to see more animation on this channel But I’m just saying

[@T0MA2EN]

It took me until 18 minutes in until I realized this was the movie and not a behind the scenes

[@4sydic]

A couple of these shots are very reminiscent of the first Evil Dead film to me! Very rad, yall did a great job 👌🔥

[@BitBloo-q6q]

Loving the spooky vibes the day before Halloween! Super fun getting chills from watching while snuggled up in a blanket :) On a more serious note, I really love the message u guys are sending here, it feels like every time I sit down and do art I can't ever get that "final touch", and the way u captured that slow (ok maybe not thaaat slow) descend into madness was super super creative and scary and honestly really relatable 100000/10 I'm watching this again!!

Just saying I bleached my hair and am now in bed with a poptart for this occasion Ty so much fruit jar 💓💓💓

No worries! Ollie is the actor who plays Parker in the scene outside the party. They’re non-binary.
