More than scared, i was feeling sad for the old man that he was bound to stay in that condition just for her sake. He could not leave even if he wanted to.

[@nopeyeah8757]

Why sad for a murderer? The mf old man was responsibile for death of many care taker (as it has been implied ) in last scene, he has no compunction for his deeds, he is a monster like his dead psychopathic wife, both are to be equally blamed, he could sacrifice his own life an save innocent girls who came for him, both will go to hell

[@lisathesupergremlin7731]

Sadly, this is a spot on, accurate, depiction of a lot of the home bound elderly are living. I quit home healthcare and went into the military because of houses just like this. The elderly were neglected and/ or in dire poverty stricken, vermin infested dwellings. Most cases were either heartbreaking, horrendous or both. That work absolutely broke my spirit... Great work, very detailed and very well done.

[@leahthepotterhead]

I'm not trying to joke about any of this, but the last part, was there a pun intended?

[@BatMite19]

Unbelievable how much the sound contributed to the mood of this film. Give the sound crew and editor a raise!

[@sleightr]

"Who will look after me?" What a haunting ending. Well done!

[@oldsingingstudentdougbillf1665]

We knew from the beginning that there was to be a terrible end to a super cute and nice girl. The rotten squalor that the elder man lives in…reality for many seniors worldwide. Everything about this clip was very well done, including the acting. Thank you.

[@hunnybee5321]

JEEZ THE WAY I JUMPED WHEN I SAW THE WOMAN IN THE DOOR WAY AT 9:13 I LITTERALY HAD TO LOOK AWAY. THIS IS SO SCARY AND WELL DONE BRAVO!!!!!

[@observationsfromthefencepo7207]

This is a fantastic take on the ghost story genre. It was effective. You genuinely feel for the old man and the case worker. The apartment set fit the situation and was accurate on what elder neglect could look. Props to make-up as that legvwas gnarly. The story take was the strong point and the two leads nailed it. The whole vibe was effective. Great job to James Kennedy and all involved. You felt the shot of that chair. Peace.

[@MisterG2323]

Man, I really didn't want that poor girl to die, even though you knew it was coming! Very well done short, kudos! Why is this guy not listed on IMDb?

[@Pearl226]

My mama used to do work with elders in poorer parts of a nearby city. She has so many stories, and a lot of them really break my heart. God, we as a society really need to work on supporting and respecting our elders and helping them be okay with accepting support.

[@reinereine1896]

Sorry you can't afford it because the increase of migrants. You can't have both, the money supply is to little to help all at once, and of course we have Ukraine. Well our trusted leaders know exactly how to priorize.

[@JoseTorres-rs7kj]

​@@reinereine1896you truly are indoctrinated!! The richest country in the world who find billions of dollars to send to Israel.... A new sucker is born every second ... When you 👉 you get the gist....

[@janethagaman1998]

Great movie short, I became concerned for both characters. The old man's stubbornness and her desire to help save him from himself. Sad and creepy.

[@hatednyc]

She is just lovely. Wonderful performances. They played off one another remarkably well.

[@jeweledthrone2850]

Both actors stole my heart

[@henrikthorsen5971]

This has to be one of my favourites from Alter so far. What a terrific story and excellent acting from both. Love everything about it.

[@Rebel_Lord_Taron]

Bravo!!!! That was the best Ghost Movie Ever!!!! I have grown tired of movies about ghosts, then Maggie comes along and Turns it up to 11!!! Great Job!!!!

[@verwolf3D]

What a charming young girl! She was.

[@accidentallyamy1063]

THANK YOU FOR NOT USING LOUD MUSIC FOR A JUNP SCARE IN THE DOORWAY! So much more effective how it was!! 🙌🙌🙌

[@anargyroschountita5155]

well done as a carer i can tell you that this was very well done

[@samir_bapu]

This was really different and unique horror short from others, i feel pity for both old man and young lady with helping nature 😊

[@lovemealways7]

Horror or not, this was excellent acting in this feature ...two thumbs up plus my two big toes which gives it four up all the way around, again EXCELLENT

[@massarrat1992]

it's hard leaving someone we love even if that love is hurting us ... both of them is condamned by love , he can't leave her and doesn't care about his health because to him it's not worthy after her and she is crazy about him and do all her best to keep him with her ...we can see that she turned to something evel and that she became his curse but all what I see is that she's the cursed one ... love it ALTER it reminds me of my dad when my mom passed away in 2007 he kept talking about her like she is present , he couldn't marry or even think about it after her , he even sold every thing because to him if mom wasn't there nothing worth keeping ...those days we convinced him to marry but he is living her lost again like it was yesterday because of that ...

[@jewelhaines8842]

WoW! What a fantastic story! I felt so sorry for the old man 😔...forced to live in filth because he was unable to care for his house or himself and having to do the evil spirit of his dead wife's bidding!! 😮 Great short!❤

[@mistermystery2143]

9:23 THIS SHIT THE CRAP OUT OF ME I LITERALLY JUMPED. ANDD THERESS NOT EVEN A SOUND EFFECT IT WAS PURE SILENCE. pure horror cuz thats what would it be like in real life if ghosts just decided to show up :0

[@antoinettecmarshall2270]

This was one of the best short movies I've seen. The subtleties are what really made the film for me. The cinematic choices regarding music score, the use of the ticking timer, and that moment when he turned off his hearing aid to foreshadow! WOW!!!! ART!!!

[@nicolegroves6880]

Incredible acting! Scary and heartbreaking all at once! I really enjoyed this film a lot.

[@kat_twin]

One of the better ones I've seen them post lately. It's definitely a new favorite of mine and a tragic one for sure.

[@NoticeMeShizun]

Amazing acting and storytelling through and through. I’m surprised the government hasn’t sent a whole SWAT team to this mans house regarding how many carers have disappeared. You can’t just keep sending lone women there 😭

[@skuhlemeyer]

That man was one of the best actors I’ve seen in a long time. Tell him for me

[@arturhellmann9138]

Wow... That was intense... A really good one, good camera work, lighting, actors. And damn... 9:24 was so subtle bug good... damn...

[@CAMBY608]

Def been Altered after watching this! Great job!

[@wiebkescantick947]

Wow! This was terrifying and heartbreaking at the same time. Excellent job in every aspect!

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

Great short film, great all.

[@angiepalacios94]

Incredible, incredible acting omg. What a story.

[@krislatoya7556]

Dang, I really liked Sandra. She didn't stand a chance though. Also makes me wonder if he can leave to seek medical care.

[@pattymitchell2279]

This was FANTASTIC!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@edgarparker25]

This was great. Gave me monster house vibes lol 10/10 Poor old man. Poor girl too ):

[@FeezieFilms]

wow. setting character chemistry color grade all fantastic. felt as if I were. watching a Hollywood film. 10/10

[@alphonsebladergroen619]

That was AWESOME!! Now, that's what u call Horror & Art. ALTER NEVER DISAPPOINTS!!❤❤

[@maksudurroufkhan5356]

It was incredible. Love the story

[@catherineg9943]

Interesting. It reminds me of a “ghostly” relationship between Paul and Annie, in Stephen King’s, “Misery”!!!!

[@DavidReySilva]

This one was really good!!! 😃

[@D_Smith81]

That was really good! Thanks.

[@kristynathan5295]

I'm so thankful that I stumbled across Alter few mths ago... Recommend to all my friends and family..keep it up loved this one .

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good story, excellent vibes with the environment, and some A+ acting.

I really like the film! Nice!

[@0815Horst]

What a lovely wife he had... Well done horror movie! Intense atmosphere! 👍

[@danlonick800]

Wow this was fantastic! Well done to everyone involved in this production because absolutely every part of it was just perfect. This deserves lots of awards 👌

[@UpnAbout99]

Thoroughly enjoyed that. Well Done !!

[@StayCalm_DoArt123]

this is giving Monster House vibes. I really like this short, the dynamics with the characters were a mix of depressing and intriguing.

[@Rixoli]

The one detail that really got me the worst was him turning off his hearing aid: He knows whats coming, he doesn't want to hear it happening, because he knows there's no stopping it.

[@jobisselle2861]

Gripped from start to finish ❤

[@jetta.silence6356]

Just brilliant!!

[@doriancarnesi1727]

Terrific acting on both actors ****camera and music was just amazing **** wonderful performance…enjoyed ❤️🌹❤️

[@armandolaberetta3469]

When the acting Is great, the short Is great too, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

[@shanaexe]

It’s wild with the amount of times he has called and the amount of home health care nurses that have come and never returned, you would think they’d be concerned 😭 overall this is heartbreaking

[@jomontanee]

WOW!!! THIS IS EPIC!!!

[@Nobody-b1v]

WOW...excellent work!

[@notthejenfrombackthen679]

Intense!!! Brilliant!

[@Blaq_Thand]

she sounds like she is from South Africa☺beautiful

[@yossra93]

One of the saddest shorts i've seen on Alter. It appears the man couldn't leave.. i'd live a sequel for this where we see some closure

[@vickigrove8549]

Wow - powerful. Well done!

[@Pookieezz06]

Too good ❤ but sad to see the old man in such a condition where he can’t even move out ♥️

[@sidekick1606]

Although she was caring and trying to be helpful. Sometimes it's best to mind the business that, minds you. Especially, if you hearing bumpi😮ng around in a setting as such. Other than that..... Great horror short film indeed!!!

[@rolindabrown5629]

Alter always has me jumping outta my sear scared😮😮😮

[@louise4217]

Oh this was excellent 👏 👌 👍 Super acting and set. ❤

[@katythepsychiclady2342]

The effects were, BLOW MY MIND

[@TrevorBarre]

This is a genuine horror movie.

[@TrevorBarre]

Very good, very grim. Well done.

[@alexclairmont]

Interestingly kinda similar to another short film you uploaded this month, Leech. I really enjoyed both.

[@spidgeb3292]

Sometimes loneliness is the better option.

[@jamesmccoysr.3595]

Outstanding!!!

[@katythepsychiclady2342]

This man is A WONDERFUL, AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL ACTOR❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheNJ93487]

😰 (Gasping shockingly) Maggie?!! My good gods. 😢😢

[@glen7228]

I was rooting for the girl. I thought she would be the one to defeat Maggie and free the old man from her clutches. I still enjoyed it even though I would have preferred my ending.

[@kathrynbillinghurst188]

Ooooh 😮 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 So well done 🏆 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@leboonleboon1638]

Wow holy moly. What a great short, the actress, the actress playing Maggie and the old man were off the charts. Great acting. This is absolutely top 10 for 2023. Congratulations.! this one was really good.🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@delialawrence6307]

Bravo!! This was amazing!!! Keep ip worh the good work. Maggie is brilliant ❤❤❤

[@BoRice82]

Yeah that was more sad than anything. 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@Ivan-NZ]

Outstanding acting.

[@jeniyavoronoi7240]

Short horror the best

i once knew a tall one who was pretty good

[@Tsuki933]

ALTER. I EFFIN LOVE YOU

[@donovanbradley1753]

Great short!!!! I am assuming Maggie was a zombie ghost and demon?

[@FrankieCallahan-nv3sy]

LOVED IT .

[@democra7797]

If I was him I'll just accept her help, and she's nice and kind to him

[@bipolarbear9163]

it doesn’t seem like maggie will allow that…

[@chocobiechocolate1478]

​@@bipolarbear9163stupid maggie

[@marziamartignoni5585]

I am watching this after re-watching the movie The Visit (2015) on the Sci Fi channel. That is also an interesting take on what aging and dementia can give a plot for a creepy story.

[@faithruckdeschel1294]

I felt bad for the man but if I was the girl, I would've just asked Maggie if she was Ok with me tidying up so nobody else might come there and try taking her hubby away from her? As soon as I saw him talking to a spirit, and when he called and said nobody's been coming there, that it had something to do with the spirit offing the nurses who also tried getting him help? This kind of reminds me of "Monster House?" Also, when are ppl going to stop threatening someone right where they're at where something bad can happen to them? She should've left, went back to her manager and explained the situation? Maggie's probably OK with the nurses until they start trying to make that phone call? Even if Maggie loved him when she was alive, she doesn't now? She's trying to keep him trapped there for her selfish benefit?

[@anthony7490]

maggie was the nurse

[@JoyaLewisTheMusician]

OOH that silent jumpscare was good 😖😖

[@kylebrewer9582]

I liked it very much, the atmosphere was tense and grotesque 😮 Why is Maggie so hungry?
