She was the perfect undercover psycho killer! Sweet looking, well spoken, empty promises. 😱💀🤣😂 Loved this short film 🎥🎬 👏👏👏👏👍

[@trevorbailey730]

Great job. The film was well shot, edited and the lead actress was phenomenal. Although, I like the film, I knew where it was headed. The ending could have used an additional twist, but congratulations on getting it done. Also, this somehow feels like a proof of concept. Is that what you are aiming for? Cheers.

[@keithfarrington8179]

I have a sneaking suspicion this scenario has played out in reality, some similar version. well done.

[@robertolanzas5317]

Thank you ALTER for showcasing our film (Pelican Milkshake) on your platform! It was a pleasure being a part of this thrilling piece of story telling. Shoutout to the Director Marcus Newman and scene partner in CRIME, Sophie McBean, for being such an absolute blast to work along side with. -Roberto Lanzas (Riz) out!

[@Karatejin]

Great film! Congratulations!

[@blackzodiacvideography9311]

I really like the concept of the drone 'being the witness'. This film has good tension and no dull moments 👍🏾

[@katie-zq7qr]

the buzzing sound at the end caused her to look up thinking another drone is coming...but she realises its a mosquito..Im inclined to believe that mosquito was also a drone..

[@aliciahoverson]

Exactly my first thought when she squashed it.

[@CAMBY608]

Kinda was hoping for a plot twist that after all she did and even finally got what she wanted (I won't spoil that), that was hoping maybe the drone was being broadcast Live on a channel somewhere....or maybe it was???????????? None the less, I've been Altered :)

[@holdyourownnuts182]

Yeah, I was thinking it was being broadcasted somewhere as well😁

[@wanderer299a]

The guy said it was live on the internet

[@CAMBY608]

@@wanderer299a - ?? he said it wasn’t…and i know we see the red button on the camera of the drone flashing, but that could just mean recording, not broadcasting Live anywhere..? right?

[@jessicawilson2772]

Or, even, that somewhat explained why she was there, with a body, to begin with.

[@maxpower1337]

Yeah he should have said it was broadcasting live 👍

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

It's a shame for him that she really wasn't in the mood for pizza or being filmed. It got his plans for returning to work ... ALTERed.

[@alanbryant8457]

My parents raised me to be nice to people. My dad said in a crowd of people. There is one that life has shit on. Don't be the one to set that person off! Great film.

[@krishanubanerjee6955]

Well, if you accidentally do set that person off, then you need to do whatever is necessary to save yourself. I'd use that shovel when I had control of it to make sure she never got back up. She was clearly a threat to my life, so the decision would be pretty obvious.

[@scottmiller6270]

This captures your attention from jump. She doesn't look the "type" you would suspect as a killer. It was as if the drone wanted to lead her back to the operator. He should've taken her out when he had the chance!

[@andymackie8283]

You can tell she has feelings for her husband and may have killed in self-defense, because she almost holds his hand. But the second guy is what turned her into a cold-blooded killer. Great short and good pacing and acting.

[@paullevine1813]

Hello Andy, She gave him a way out but he chose to fool with her & he smashed pizza in her face , she should have nailed him with the shovel then & crashed the silly drone just to be on the safe side. Can't really fault her she did give him a few chances , he made the wrong ones . How do we really know he didn't have a body in his car Hmmm !!!!! It was a good short ...

[@baunbaun82]

@@paullevine1813 Lol, I think he should have forced that shovel between her legs and create a nice human scarecrow made out of her rotting corpse.

[@mouli0235]

How fool can a guy be to let the drone lead the murderer to himself! I would have abandoned the drone right then and there

That serves to warn drone owners to respect other people's privacy.

He was flying the drone in a damn forest. That's public land, and you are not supposed to be there burying dead bodies in the first place!

[@Deathwish567]

Now that was a good one ., both of them excellent actors. I can’t believe the lady isn’t more famous

[@AliceAngel_]

I can say this was amazingly done. Only one thing this girl is a walking red flag. I don’t mean that she’s a killer I mean all the red flags for burying a dead body she did so many things wrong 😂 I was laughing the whole time. Besides that she’s a phenomenal actress and this one really kept me watching. Good job!

[@detrajackson5992]

WOW! That was crazy! At first I thought that he was in some online geeky need drone gamers club and that she would turn around into a swarm of drones all looking at her in the end... but that end was just as great as always!!😊

[@aliciahoverson]

I thought about the swarm of drones too 😁

[@skinnerstreet3793]

Shooting with 2 drones in the sky was tricky enough! :) That would have been fun though.

[@moniquevandeplas5210]

At first I was like "now?" with annoyance when that drone showed up which had me super concerned about myself but by the end of this I was thinking she's like a blend of Cersei and Ramsay from G.O.T and that is a terrifying combo. This short headfucked me because I started with empathy for her thinking she was sad but by the end I am like what a full blown sociopath. I was so hoping that mosquito would be the end of her. That was the quickest 12 minutes ever.

[@skinnerstreet3793]

Haha. Love this Monique. Cersei and Ramsay combo nails it 😂

[@paullevine1813]

I was hoping she would toss the drone after she took the shovel to it which we don't see & the pizza box in the grave , we don't know the reason she killed her husband but i don't think she was a sociopath or a real serial killer as did have feelings , she just didn't want to get caught & she did give the pizza boy an option a psychopath or sociopath would had killed the pizza boy on the spot , he chose not to take it & who knows if he didn't have a body in the his trunk . This was the first time i was on the side of the killer . It was a an interesting short .

[@moniquevandeplas5210]

@@paullevine1813 sociopaths actually do have feelings which is why you can play on their empathy. Pyschopaths and Narcissists however have no empathy. They just mirror it. I learned this well after dealing with a narcissist. I do remember this but I should rewatch it to address all your points. The biggest question I have is did you enjoy this short? The word interesting to me is a very generic description.

Alter is back.

[@ultimasta]

This is stupid as f. Why would you fly the drone back to yourself and give away your position? Okay screwed up once, but then why not get into your car after slapping her in the face with pizza, and either drive away or run her over (instead of running away). After acquiring the shovel, why poke her with the handle when she is moving towards you and you have already seen her with a dead body. Even at the end when you are hypothetically out of options and injured, why give her what she wants, and why not fly the thing at her neck/head? We see it cut fingers at the end, so it could have definitely done some damage. I see a lot of comments praising it, but none pointing out the flaws. She should have gotten what she deserved.

[@slagit]

Nice one although I have to say that guy was sort of not to bright to not take off right away from what he was seeing. I have listened to too many true crime podcasts to learn you don't stick around if you are so alone near a crime scene with the murderer still there! He sort of got it for not bolting unless he felt he could take her on!

[@dttttt]

But what about the phone? His phone can be tracked directly to his last location when it's noticed that he's missing. And now the drone. With both phone and drone, I don't think she's getting away with what she did.
