THE BOX - Horror / Thriller Short Film

[@d.j.foxxxyd.j.foxxxy1063]

I'm an recovering addict. I truly appreciate this film!!! I wish I could show this to my group!!! Nice film to show at a meeting and discuss at the end what they got out of the movie!!! Thank you!!!

[@sharonwolfe5210]

Stephanie Mullen good luck hon, HOLD ON TO YOU!!!

[@embryonic7692]

Me too! keep up the good work! Stay clean. It's worth the Hard work. Life can be beautiful! Finally. And u don't come across that many films with the subject. 👍

[@Iam_Lovedove]

She never mentioned "crack" fam... way to assume, smh

[@TheMuckSpace]

I've been clean for 2 years now it's hard, I have been an addict for 18 years this video hit home. the best video I've seen in some time, thank you.

[@andreag3532]

I'm a recovering addict I lost my husband to o.d? I also carried my works in a box. This film hit home on so many levels. They years I spent in active addiction was hell.

[@MrAditya159]

Its sad that this videos has only 1k likes...they deserve much more..

[@sarahgray430]

I clicked on this expecting a run-of-the-mill supernatural thriller, and was amazed to find it's really about drug addiction (which is a lot scarier, because it's real) and really quite well acted and filmed. Bravo!

[@jazzymoni7750]

I don't know addiction as a personal struggle, but I have family that does. This was a glimpse into a world I can never truly understand but I'm grateful for the depiction of struggle, fear, strength, and weakness that this showed all addicts encounter. Eye opening for sure and a true testament of the will and determination of those who are living day to day in their sobriety. Great job! The box melodically calling to him gave me chills.

[@Mislav24]

Pretty creepy and interesting short horror film, with excellent acting and great camera work. The ending was chilling. I assume that the whole plot and imagery is supposed to represent the character's struggle with guilt and drug addiction; really well done. Keep up the great work.

[@jane-cn6nd]

absolutely genius.

[@DanielDahlman]

I don't normally get freaked out by short films but this was great! The music really pushed the tone home!

[@littlemrpinkness295]

This is powerful, without being heavy-handed. Emotionally draining.

[@BetsyArcherella]

Very well done... everything - acting, cinematography, sound, lighting, and everything else involved in making this video!

[@catherineg9943]

Terrific film, with a somber and true message. Sometimes, our own demons, are the worst ones sent from Hell. Bravo!

[@memyselfandcube457]

Great acting, great editing, great film! Can tell a lot of effort was put into this! Great job!

[@TheSkylightStudios]

+MeMyselfAndCube Thank you! Can't tell you how much we appreciate it! If you have 3 extra minutes check out our latest short clip "BEAUTIFUL"

[@memyselfandcube457]

+Skylight Studios - Jorge Carvajal Watched it, great as well. Keep up the great work!

[@goldenbabyshortfilm3817]

I really like your film! The visual style is amazing!

[@GarrettKavenagh]

Wow, this is twisted and so creative 😱

[@kasperrose6294]

Very well done! I don't usually like short horror films, but this one impressed me. The acting was great, and the story was compelling enough to want to keep watching. Great job!

[@skreemqueen756]

Great film. Very unique way of portraying addiction, it definitely is an evil spirit. It has possessed way too many wonderful people and taken them away so early. Keep up the original work, I loved it!!

[@d.j.foxxxyd.j.foxxxy1063]

I get it that box hold's all their drugs and drug's instruments they used when they got high. The addiction was calling him and he tried to fight it, but instead it kept chasing him. So he was about to break down and her spirit stop him. Well tried to stop him but the addiction was too strong and at the end he overdose also!!! Nice film!!!

[@lizzieisbaked]

Thank you captain hindsight!! Lol

[@d.j.foxxxyd.j.foxxxy1063]

[@roserey9064]

Stephanie Mullen I recommend you go back to school

[@sallyoquinn]

Wow! It touched my heart AND creeped me out. Well done!

[@DirtCapsuleStudio]

Over the past few years, Independent film has beat the whole "drug addict torture" theme to death. I'm really tired of it... That said, this was a nice twist on that theme. "liked"

[@luiscavalcanti3431]

How hard must have been drops it. Exceptionally well done ✅

[@syed5783]

Superbly made film. Brilliant acting as well.

[@anthonyseopardi184]

Felicitaciones a todo el equipo de "The Box", excelente trabajo el de cada uno, Jorge, Marco Antonio, Samantha, Adrián, Gustavo, Fuerte Abrazo

[@micmarmac]

Perfect in every way. Outstanding work!

[@louisbennett7709]

FANTASTIC camera work! Just weak on tension and story build up. Keep trynig

[@TheYoorange]

Thats great short flim! I like it!

[@crnodete7692]

Hard for people who weren't in 'that dark waters' to understand and to talk about addiction with them,when the strongest thing they ever took is Vodka. I sure don't recommend it to anyone,it's living hell,at least,they should have respect. I can bet that everyone here knew someone who is dead now because of fkn drugs. Respect them,not us,who you don't even know. Thank you. 🖤 for my big love,years ago. Will meet again,only this time I will take care of you like I should then. Hope you forgave me,my love.

[@pestilenceofhorror4119]

My god! that is mind blowing brilliant my friend! Just simply fantastic! I like how organized the story was. and how it all came together. You had me zoned in on what was going on. and then boom! I like how you put us as the watchers through the experience before revealing what was going on. This shouldn't even have twenty Nine Dislikes. Also I know you got 333 subscribers. I hope you don't mind 334.

[@TheSkylightStudios]

Pestilence Of Horror Thanks man, it means a lot to me, I really appreciate it!

[@pestilenceofhorror4119]

Skylight Studios Hey, no problem pal. Looks like you put a lot of hard work into this project. Its not easy to make a short film in eight minutes. having a beginning, middle, climax, and end in a short time and to pull it off so well. You even have great light Filtering, a nice tent of negative saturation that gives the film that good gritty horror feel to it. And wonderful choice of music when the climax was all coming together. It added so much to the atmosphere. I can say you're going in the right path, keep up the great work. I will be looking forward to seeing more work from you in the future. Just absolutely splendid.

[@johntremendol]

Sound Design is the best i've seen in recent short films

[@pekarezmaj]

The part with the drugs reminds me so much of a "requiem for the dreams".. what do u think?

[@mikailaydenizteyukjk230]

True.

[@Itsyrm8]

i think its called "requiem for a dream".It was a punch in the stomach. Not like "trainspotting", it showed the real deal

[@embryonic7692]

This was a reall goodie! Really enjoyed it!!

[@Crescendotron]

When you cant compete good in Love You find excuses in others to rise above Face the fact, you used it for nothing .. Now, who is with you in your cravings ?

[@Ivarfromsweden]

Great film and story!

[@makooma]

The whispering made me so angry that I was not able to be afraid. Fucking pissed me off is what is did.

[@santhoshsrinivas2224]

great work, u should do more films like this one

[@thetempleofxin]

Is there a script available to read? I love reading scripts and this was a great short film!

[@Thayer2000]

that cell phone ring is annoying. my cell phone ring is annoying too. i hate cell phones but i liked this movie very much. Well done!!! Thank you!

[@icecreamsocial3026]

Awesome take on being haunted by your own actions . I really enjoyed that film

[@TheSkylightStudios]

+redneckvodoo 666 Thanks man! I really appreciate it!

[@IdaRamirez-ch5ds]

Great job 😊 now y all know the drugs are the demons and how they try to over come y great film thank y

[@burgerthecat2190]

Though this short film has an incredibly simple concept (and some forced moments such as the use of a gun) I really like its direction and ways of story telling. It surprise me. Kudos!

[@pLaIrVaIdNoGx]

Very well done.

Locke In Key Productions Thank you man, I really appreciate it!

[@lkentertainment8760]

Skylight Studios My pleasure! By the way, I'd kick myself if I didn't mention it: I realize you've got your go-to composers, however, if and when you begin to expand your operation, and/or your composers are indisposed, I'd love an opportunity to work with your team. You can take a listen to my work here, soundcloud.com/paul-cating and my website www.lockeinkeyproductions.com/ Again, great film!

Muchas gracias!

[@stanleyfincher5455]

This is a good one. But have you tried that fantastic short thriller... Respect 101 by a new filmmaker called Max Sappa? truly special!

[@spiroskoufos5412]

GREAT!

[@cherbear113]

Just started getting into shorts few months now, since full length movies just don't "do it" for me anymore. I wouldn't know if I'm picky or not. I like different ones for different reasons. There's scary, suspenseful, creepy, or just an original premise. Which impresses me the most, since it's so lacking these days. Bravo on The Box. Though it won't be keeping me up at night. Very original, suspenseful and we'll thought out and executed. You have a new subscriber. Anyway. Who wants to be kept up all night. I like my beauty rest 😚

[@TheSkylightStudios]

Cher Bear Thanks It really means a lot! :)

[@cherbear113]

And thank you as well. Looking out for more from Skylight Studios. Keep it kreepy

[@danielchavez7402]

Great job. Peace

[@roccgg]

Great job

[@sharfoster1245]

This is a lot like Requiem For a Dream.

[@StreetofCrocodiles]

S. Raigner yeah several shots were clearly identical to ones in RFAD. Even portions of the music borderline on being a remix of the the requiem theme music.

[@riomadre]

Came here to see if anyone else noticed this the music, the eye, and the heads together on the floor shots were all super similar

[@ferozshariefvevo9610]

Y do you not try to make a full movie

[@foustinakp]

This was very good and very sad

[@luiscavalcanti3431]

Once I’d heard someone saying it wasn’t reasonable to commingle horror and action coz they were in different categories. I shut my mouth that time reserving myself from any altercation. but now I have something for him, this video... so now I’m forwarding him, expecting anxiously for my turn of a REASONABLE answer. Let’s wait on what’s next

can someone explain to me the ending? Was he overdosing? Thats how his girlfriend died right?

[@TERRAMOUNT]

cool stuff

[@rohitwalia6509]

Great work.....drugs are killing the whole world....

[@kumarsanu7523]

right now, your english is killing it. Stop blaming drugs for everything. I use it and I am fine. People need to understand that these are for recreational purpose only. IF you do not have will, then nothing can save you. Alcohol kills more families than drugs have ever, yet no one addresses that. Why? because it is not frowned upon by the so called society. But things like marijuana, that grows naturally are frowned upon. Stupid bastards. You know why weed is made illegal? Because, weed is easier to grow than tobacco is and weed has MANY medicinal benefits, which if made legal will kill the pharmaceutical industry. They have vested interest to ban these natural herbs. Don't be a cow and follow the herd. Ask questions, research and be sure before you say anything. I am Kumar Sanu, signing off! Peace

[@thepompking8842]

Mary Feather yeah he did

[@hassyhunna9034]

can somebody please explain to me what exactly happened?

[@TheMichaelFosterExp]

Cool deal, I can dig it.

[@catherineg9943]

What is that children's rhyme???? I've heard it used in horror before, but I can't quite make out the entire thing. Can anyone post the "lyrics"?!

[@Treopse]

Very cool. My take is his OD'd girlfriend tried to stop him using again but he relapsed. Probably for the last time.

[@JumpRopeQueen]

wow!

[@judywelsh682]

This really upset me. Great film.

[@TheSkylightStudios]

+Judy Welsh Thank you, we really appreciate that!

[@pascallefebvre196]

What are the whispers saying?

[@doriswhite1348]

Good direction and other jobs by Jorge Carvajal. I think he would have done a better job of directing a certain highly publicized horror film that's -- oh, never mind. Anyway, great acting by Marco A. Salazar. From the way he handled the gun I'm guessing that he's military or police trained. Professionally done and S*C*A*R*Y; very intense.

[@cinemadrew]

i wish this had a better pay off..

[@crnodete7692]

Heroin addition is fkn one leg into grave. He loved her,so,he did a 'golden bullet',as we calling it. And he could make it out. But,that Satan's smiles,as he trying to run away...Good psychological shf. Only Minus is for his 'make-up'. More then my ex wife,lol.

[@lisawhite3648]

Philly Lisa here!Me sn u Both!!!!!

This reminds me of breaking bad.

[@crnodete7692]

And the worst thing is 'Just one more time...This time,and I'm done with it '...Fk,100 times went thru that.

[@ahadkhan779]

A similar concept of love story between jesse a d jane in breaking bad

[@aprilhobbs25]

So did he die as well? I'm a tad confused on that one. Great short here I loved it! Tfs I am a recovering addict and, I can tell you with absolution that we do not chase the addiction...the addiction chases us. Whoever wrote this must've had his own demons to battle or, loved someone fighting addiction.

[@ferozshariefvevo9610]

So horror dude Really Iam so scared

[@MissTique247]

How terribly sad... I would not call this horror. Haunting perhaps. Maybe even psychological thriller? But I am seeing it as his drugs are in that box, and after losing the love of his life to overdose, he is fighting with his giving into his addiction (the "other" him you see in the mirror) and wanting to die and be with her; and his desire to live!
