And finally she learnt to live with that finger

[@badseedfx]

This was great! Thank you so much! Bonus points for being the first to submit!

[@mbrasier]

Thanks! We had a lot of fun doing it!

[@ChaCha.44]

Her running with that finger nearly had me peeing my pants and having an asthma attack at the same time - something that has RARELY even happened to me before - so really, KUDOS TO YOU!! 😂🎉❤

[@antonboludo8886]

It is like leaving an abandoned baby at someone's door.

[@ChaCha.44]

Yessss!! I'd never thought of that!! Or maybe a hot dog, it kinda looked like one in a way 🤢

[@AnansitheSpider8]

That finger kept giving her the finger.

[@marcuswall8852]

Cool, well done 👍

[@mbrasier]

Thank you!

[@LauraHorrorshow]

Awww the fingie just wanted a friend! 🥹💕

[@ChaCha.44]

"Fingie" 😂 🤣

[@nelliesilvers1210]

Someone certainly wanted to give her the finger🖕🏻😂. The title made me think of Stephen King's short story 'The Moving Finger'. Excellent tale but kinda rank. Edit - Dang!! Let the girl light up at least😆. I just read you filmed and edited this in 2 days so I've gotta say how good it is. Especially for a rush job👍🏻.

[@JananEverett]

Thank you so much for the information!!

[@magnetdesignandadver]

Love it! She likes to laze about but you can't say she never lifts a finger

[@ChaCha.44]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@LadyTee16]

Ok I need to k ow what kind of cereal was That it still had its crunch after all that time

[@trishazechel8402]

The finger wanted it to be her buddy.

[@daniellewolff2902]

I lost my shit when she ran for miles to get rid of it! 😂😂 And it just shows up again! She’s like, “why me? Why anybody??!”😂😂 Brilliant work! I love it!😂❤😂

[@DanMcClarren]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ernestocaro9802]

She’s home alone and has a finger… use it!!!

[@ToddDeSilva]

I just noticed something, continuity wise, when she runs out of the house with the finger she makes a left but then she comes back from the right. I only really notice that because I am doing this film as well so I’ve been trying to keep track of things like that. Great job for a couple days worth of work though!

[@clark63i]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🚴‍♂️

[@NessyNess182]

I love it.

[@el_grecko_31]

Someone's obviously giving her the finger. I think the neighbors want her to cut her grass, then smoke some grass after the job is done. Also, move the damn TV screen down about "a foot." ...Get it! 😂

[@sassycat1825]

Even the finger tried telling her not to smoke that crap!

[@valiantwarrior4517]

The horror is her eating dry cereal.

[@Tengaryu_SB]

Lol she afraid she get busted for the joint? What if it’s legalized in her state.

[@laithmughrabi8990]

In such situations one might need a hand.

[@verwolf3D]

Nice short movie!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@SavannahLarsen-if3bs]

What is up with the finger

[@chelseavaughn5935]

I just smoke some weed man forget about it lol😂

[@notpoliticallycorrect]

Good video. Poor audio.

[@mbrasier]

Thanks! We filmed it and edited everything in two days with just a couple of us, so we expected some flaws!

[@antonboludo8886]

They're only noodles, Michael.

[@000aleph]

Service message: you managed to upload a film whose audio is a full 34.5 dB below YT loudness standards. This is basically inaudible on a laptop or mobile device.

[@mbrasier]

Thanks for the feedback. This film was shot and edited over the course of a weekend for a competition, so our time was very limited on perfecting the audio, so we knew there would be flaws. Your feedback is appreciated, thank you!

[@atlasrunner8206]

Obviously I must of got a Contact High from what she was Smokin....

[@allisonmarler1199]

That was kinda cute lol

[@TheFireline]

1. Use microphones - so hard to hear what she´s saying!! 2. Put down the television!!! 3. I hope it's intended that the film should be funny

[@v.k.7413]

ITS A HARD FINGER….

[@Emilythematerialgurl]

The finger didnt look that bad looked like wax or a gummy

[@mbrasier]

The actress made the finger on the fly! I think she said it was made of resin.

[@ChaCha.44]

Awwww but The Finger just wanted her to be his lil buddy, that's all...but still, in all "seriousness", at the beginning when she was trying to pick it up I was yelling at my tv, "just get a dang pair of tongs or something!" and then when she actually did that later on in the film I just lost it. See?! Such an easy and quick solution! ("Ummm there's a finger outside my door...nm, it's probably just poop!"...mmmkayyyy then)!! 🤪 😂 👉 = 💩?!?!

[@Lisacarroll57]

“Nevermind, it’s just a hot dog” was what I thought as an excuse…..

[@ChaCha.44]

@@Lisacarroll57 🌭 😱 😂

[@JupiterMan12.000]

❤Pretty Actress❤

[@geraldcollins-uf6be]

Don't smoke dope.

[@san5sparkle]

well,

[@TurinTurambarTolkien]

Terrible audio.

[@BurntWoodsProductions]

Nicely done!

[@mbrasier]

Thank you!!

[@hphan7549]

Fkg wasted my time, but the actress being very sexy athletic and strong 😂🤣🌞🌞🌞

[@panther45-c2r]

naw

[@isabellaBella66]

A VERY stupid theme!😝

[@jeremiahlarkin1134]

Definitely 2 Thumbs 👍🏻👍🏻up for her acting & Bravo 👏🏻 Bravo 🙌🏻 Bravo 🎉

[@susannoulton7634]

That was good,I don’t think it wanted to hurt her,more like a little pet lol. And a servant at that 👏👏

[@Kuma-Naru]

Like Thing from the Adams Family... except not a whole hand...

[@TheCoryGroshek]

Reminds me of the cartoon The Cat Came Back.

[@kristiethomas8573]

Id be out of the house

[@ЛУНТИКТОП-ш4я]

I think she should have called the police like she wanted in the beginning. But she was afraid because of the drugs. That's why the finger haunted her like a conscience.

[@jeffreyharnden7523]

I feel so sorry for her Everytime she tries to light up a joint she keeps hearing something like what does a girl have to do to light up a joint or something ? LOL haha enjoyed watching this

[@societydwellingifd8080]

Pipe.

[@Onefastgetaway]

That was great and well acted!

[@melmo5218]

Amazing what you can learn to live with! Great shorty. Loved it.

[@mbrasier]

It was a fast, but fun film shoot! Glad you liked it!

[@JeffreyHarnden-qw8fs]

They always watch night of the living dead in these short films which I don’t mind since I grew up with night of the living dead as a kid but it would be interesting to see to watch a short horror film where the characters are either watching dawn of the dead or the purge or even Friday the 13 th. Or any other classic horror film maybe the original hills have eyes but this was pretty good proud of all of the people who all came together to put this masterpiece together good work here

[@panther45-c2r]

or 🏠 on hunted hill

[@johndavidson5228]

She must have done a lot of bad stuff for someone to keep giving her the finger!

[@Plazzio]

no ..... no ...... no ..... no Sir, it's not me .... ... You own me 13 minutes of my procuctive day .... Mr M.B. ... sorry ......

[@PresidentChristopher]

She's With SPIT...!

[@jodygeorge8961]

Have anyone noticed the words on the cup also it said dont be a prick 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@NathanDegner]

Forget about the crolling hand how about the slithering finger.

[@cindymorris2567]

"I THINK IT'S 💩" Blahahaha 😂😂😂

[@russforgus807]

Where can I get one of those coffee mugs?

[@mbrasier]

I was curious myself, and I was just told that the mug was found at Walmart LOL

[@leo-unddieAnderen]

is it supposed to be hard to hear this

[@StrangeDetectives]

Not the guy standing there like "uh"

[@societydwellingifd8080]

*_i guess the car isn't hers?_*

[@richarddeleon3558]

That smile on her face in the dark tell's me she finally got good use for the finger
