This is superb with headphones in❤ it makes the suspense even more intense💕

[@parvaramufti9795]

This is some really good work! I like the build up you set up, and the atmosphere you put down was amazing! You used the light and darken really well and maintained the Horror feel of the movie really well. Overall I liked it!!!

[@sarimakbar3058]

Thank you so much for the kind words! :)

[@JSenchou]

[@jamisonbraly]

Nice acting by the lead! Love the interior night lighting setup too

Excellent suspense horror movie. In one hand, as parvaramufti9795 put so aptly, «I like the build up you set up, and the atmosphere you put down was so crazy.» In the other hand, I'm glad that you, as many other young movie directors, dare to embrace mental illness topic (paranoid schizophrenic, in this case), contributing, in that way, to demystify mental problems and breaking the taboos about this sensible topic, even if it's under the angle of fantasy. Of course, in your movie, the cause of the sound delusions of this young woman finds a concrete manifestation at the end of the film. But in the daily life, many people who struggle with serious mental illness live a real nightmare. Even if they know that what they see and/or hear are merely delusions, what they perceive is very real in their mind. The soundtrack, the way you use the obscurity, the silent playing of your lead actress, Megan Morand, all these elements contribute to make of your film a great movie. I'm eager to watch your next gems.

Why did she not turn on all the light?

[@christibarrick1768]

Grab a knife but DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT turn on any lights!!! 😂

'Promo sm'

[@axerxes3981]

Too many questions at the end. Was the murdered girl her?? How the hell did she get shot?? Why is the lead girl being hunted?? Too many questions. Ax

[@Nobody-b1v]

Missed some things: 1. Turn on the lights. 2. Ask "Who is it?" 3. If nobody answers, threat to whoever was knocking on calling the police. Nice try, good luck next time.
