IN EXTREMIS | SCARY SHORT HORROR FILM | SCREAMFEST

[@beejayehill2230]

I just discovered these horror shorts about a week ago and I was thrilled. I have not as yet, however, commented on any of them. I started binge watching every night, beginning with CryptTV. Early on I found myself becoming somewhat disappointed in many of their films, so I began looking for other channels of this genre and found Screamfest. Wow! I haven't stopped watching since. Though I really enjoy watching these films, I am not easily frightened. I have to say, however, that _In Extremis_ upped the ante and truly made the hair stand up on the back of my neck, as did _Don't Let Them In_ and I truly enjoyed having those brief moments of fear. Bravo, Screamfest!! Keep up the good work and I'll keep on watching.

[@pamelacoleman2719]

I agree, I even kind of shy away from some of them but they are very very good.🤣😂🤣❤❤❤

[@jamisteele4098]

I became addicted almost instantly. I love them!

[@1DRIPSTER]

Screamfest I too enjoy your movies. Brings a refreshing taste to the horror genre. Keep churning out the movies. I’m a subscribed watcher. 👍

[@JohnnyHellraiser]

Yup crypttv is garbage. You might wanna check out the channel alter. quality of their content is just about the same with scream.

[@TinaTinaBoBinaa]

Exact same!

[@unusualaussie9606]

Maybe the job description should have included a few more bloody details?

[@mishie618]

yeah and the curator leaves a damn hammer right next to that wall? ha.. freaking creepy as hell watching it crawl after him though

[@amarieoflothlorien]

Why? Just do what you are told, it's not that difficult.

[@ThePodVon]

Haha - He really should have just done the "Sit behind the desk and sound the alarm if someone comes in." thing like he was told. If he hadn't gone and poked it then it wouldn't have talked to him. I did half expect some sort of militant priest to come charging in the first time he touched the alarm though with the 'CONSECRATUS' inscriptions - lol People tell me I am linguistically pedantic but "things that cannot be destroyed" vs. "things that cannot be ALLOWED TO BE destroyed" sets of alarm bells to me.

[@svkeeley]

Many of the comments claim the score is stolen from "The Shining." The music predates that movie by several centuries. It's called "Dies Irae" (Day of Wrath) and dates from the 13th Century (the composer is not known). It's been used many times in other compositions including Hector Berlioz in "Symphonie fantastique." In earlier films, Gerald Fried used it in 1958 as the title theme in "The Return of Dracula" and Leonard Rosenman used it as the main theme for "The Car" in 1977.

[@peterrants9634]

This feels like it would make for a good television show, more than a full length film. With the Curator growing too old to continue to be the man on the wall sort of speak, and training a new Curator who finds the Blight and imprisons it for humanity. Not to mention all the other possible occult relics, and creatures he has faced off against and imprisoned. Good movie, and pilot (hint, hint)!!

[@amarieoflothlorien]

He just wanted to find a padawan LOL!!!

[@pakde8002]

Sounds like Grimm x Van helsing

[@mscheap]

Lesson learned: do as you are told !!

[@SaveThePurpleRhino]

It helps if they shared a bit more to someone who they trust. Not some random watchmen

[@kevinlane1219]

The way I see it, the curator, whoever he is, should've been more specific. I mean, is wasn't as though someone were trespassing on the premises, and he was under the impression that someone was in urgent need of rescue, so it was an honest mistake. Furthermore, the curator added insult to injury by blaming the guard for his misfortune.

[@1..0w0..3]

@@kevinlane1219 He isn't adding to that guy's injury, he himself is an evil person. He was testing whether this dude would be a person who just does what he's told or do otherwise. And in his pov, this guy came off as "unworthy" or something, hence he decided to discard him, just like he did to others who've displeased him.

[@1..0w0..3]

Unless u were a badass monster. Then u make the rules for humans to obey baby 😎😎

[@billyandrew]

@@1..0w0..3 One, two, three...aaaaand you're back in the room! The curator wasn't evil. The watchman was told to mind his own business, but went snooping. He became infected, after being bitten, so the curator, to protect humanity, walled him into his own room.

[@Samir_Indian]

He should have understood that it is not normal after first and second incident since there was no response in the presence of the guard, LOL

[@rickyreed9754]

A job in a basement, things that can't be destroyed, walled in doorways, bricks with the Latin word consecrated (?) on them, voices. Nope, I'm gone.

[@jfour2zero]

Yep! Had me gone at “basement” 😂 Not today Satan

[@nealdamkjer192]

consecrated can mean holy, dedicated, sacred, and many other meanings so its tough to wonder what the curator meant

[@durasaxon5131]

Do you job. Paycheck and expertise. Usually the better 'Sites' pay more. He should have followed his Post Orders. One question I always ask is... "Where is and what happened to the previous employee?" Yes, Europe is different than North America.

[@beingrel4439]

I'm with you RR, actually I'm 3 steps ahead of you. Buyeee

[@SuffuseStudios]

Yep, he should have done him job, shut up and went home

[@sallyoquinn]

You took me back to my youth, when reading Edgar Allen Poe and watching Castle horror films was my favorite past time (and one my mother did not approve of). Thank you for capturing that time and that genre in only 14 minutes. Bravo!

[@courtneygardner6334]

Reminds me of hp lovecraft story the statement of Randolph Carter. This must be the monster we never got to see.

[@courtneygardner6334]

I think the word consecratus was in there too.

[@billyandrew]

@@courtneygardner6334 Should have been two words: *Consecrate Us* LOL.

Yes. The cask of Amontillado.

This is the best of these short horror movies that I've seen. Like M.R. James and H.P. Lovecraft combined. Not the typical young girl alone in her apartment texting on a cellphone with a psycho monster that jumps out at the last second.

[@helenaj1442]

What a such stupid dirty mess he did, isn't? Very nice! Should be more!! A continuous, please!

[@FIONA21ful]

Love the classic themes rehashed. This was a fantastic goth horror.

[@msarsenicontherocks]

This short reminds me so much of the classic Amicus films! I could easily imagine Peter Cushing or Christopher Lee in the role of the curator. It's so wonderful and exciting to see a throwback to that age of horror, thank you so much for making this and I would love to see more!

[@CroatanWolf44]

Curator was creepy by himself lol. I'd confront him....over the phone, while I was in another city lol.

[@secondhandguru3558]

[@meljen7732]

"Oh my gosh, they locked Oliver Wood!" "You bastards!!!!!"

[@kristelatan6186]

I knew it! He's Oliver Wood from the Harry Potter movies! That voice!

[@roymerritt6992]

Excellent short all the way around. Great atmospherics, great actors and terrifyingly morbid sound track. Congratulations on this effort.

[@thatsthat2612]

The music was creepy, very sleepy hollowish 😱

[@Jacq39351]

The main music theme was taken from the movie The Shining (Stanley Kubrick). We hear it several times in this film and also at the end of it.

[@MissTique247]

This was easily one of my favorites to date! Thank you for a well acted, VERY well produced, well written film that truly made me shiver! The "creature" was awesomely creepy! Great make-up work! It had all the makings of a full length big budget film without the big budget or full length! Honestly, you didn't need either!

[@peachesandcream.2612]

I have watched so many rubbish horror shirts recently that this was a very welcome surprise! Everything about this production is excellent - and like every good film should - it plays on your mind afterwards! Very professional wonderful work and great acting! Many thanks 💕

[@hatednyc]

Wow. Absolutely brilliant. Performance. Mood. Writing. Visually. Wow.

[@DrRonArt]

This is like a modern day, supernatural re-telling of The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe.

Recognized his smile...

[@Dizassder]

Yeah he is

[@TheMistressMisery]

I recognized the voice first, then instantly recognized Wood xD

[@filmsbyJC]

This was so well done. Awesome location too!

[@veruschkadahmer1805]

Awesome short ! Tbh, the fact that the cries for help behind the wall started in a grown woman's voice, only to end in a little girl's tone, would absolutely have alarmed me lol Still super creepy and atmospheric 👍

[@screamfestla]

Thanks for watching!

[@robspencer35]

Outstanding, Gregory! I especially liked the "Silence of the Lambs" cell block and "The Shining" main theme! 👍

[@am_borbon]

[@deja3963]

The music was great. Sounded just like my heartbeat.

[@jaynegs76]

These shorts are way better than anything in the theaters.

[@peteramos6081]

Love how they got the atmosphere in this one, it could easily be an episode from the late 70s and early 80s TV series Hammer House of Horror... Beautifully made.

[@realthing475]

Well done! Quite professional from set design to actors.😎. Looking forward to seeing more of your highly entertaining work.

Not the most original concept and no surprises for me BUT... beautifully classic (yes, I am British) a very, VERY well executed. Got a serious Cthulhu Magician vibe off of the curator. Casting Struan Rodger was inspired. :D
