I love the usage of sound here and the lack of vocal acting. This is a style choice that isn't easy to pull off, but is a very effective way to tell a story when done right. Exposition often creates a disconnect from the viewer. It's somebody else giving the information. This style, in contrast, can make you feel what the character does. So the information partially comes from within yourself. Anybody who has ever had night terrors knows the feeling of not being able to make a sound. You can't scream or even whisper. You may even be unable to tell if you're breathing or not. The usage of chalk was a cool style choice, too. Wherever you found to use for your filming location was great, also. I used to live in the middle of nowhere and I walked to the store into the next town at night. Started walking at midnight and didn't get there till 5am. There were many street lights that were out on the road I was walking down and the ones that were lit were very far between each other. So I was able to feel what the character felt in the film. I wish more filmmakers would use this method of storytelling, especially in the horror genre. Exposition and over-explanation is getting so tiring. Great work to everyone involved.

You want to hear something really trippy? I don't believe dreams are just random pictures you see in your head. I believe that when you're asleep, you are able to see into other timelines that your life has taken. With every decision we make. The other decision that wasn't made is still made and life goes on from both decisions. Basically branching out like a tree. The other decision may end up having you lose your lives in 10 minutes and then the soul from your departed timeline goes back to the closest timeline and melds with the other soul. When you dream you are seeing those other timelines. I know people will then say well why do my dreams seem so erratic and like they don't make sense? That's because the operational program that controls this entire simulation is actively working to erase what you saw and distort what you saw in the dreams so that you don't figure it out. That's why dreams seem so weird and erratic. Because pieces are being taken away.

@@TheTexasViking I've heard that dreams are experiences from your soul and possibly cryptid messages from the afterlife and I don't belive that all dreams are like that, but I do like to belive that some of my deeper dreams have those kinds of meanings. I mean I literally learned that some of my ancestors where native americains after I had a dream about sperits that possesed trees and objects and i could only see them when they pessesed objects but I could only hear them when they possesed the trees. and then after that dream i told my dad about it and how my dream resembled the belifs of some indigenous people, wich i learned in school the day before I had my dream, and then my dad told me that his side of the family, specificly my grandpa had indeginous roots being the mi'kmaq and that they enhabited the east coast of Canada. anyway I wanted to share my view along with a related experience, if you see this I want to know if you have had any of your own spiritual dream experiences!

I think this has a lot to say about problem solving skills, or a lack thereof. The way he struggled to strike a match rather than lighting it off the still burning match. All the matches (resources) he dithered away rather than using them to reach one of the other islands of light. Making to the next light, then discovering he was back at the original one (wherever you go, there you are). Lighting a cig while under stress because choosing to smoke establishes an illusion of control. And yes, limping away from the running truck. Very well done.

it reminds me of a story a friend of mine told me (we were talking about dog brains): A classteacher gave each children a thumb trab to solve. Every single one did the wrong thing a dozen of times. Instead of trying instantly new paths, everyone kept trying the same thing over and over again (this HAS to work, or doesnt it?!). It just shows that, sometimes, the solution can be SO easy but it will remain hidden. (for dogs, this means we need to show them new ways to behave, because whats obvious for US, just isnt obvious for them.)

That was my take-away as well. And I also agree that THINGAMAJIG was an interesting impression of an NDE. "The Light" is such a major component of NDE experiences. This short had me chewing on it for a while after viewing it, which for me is usually a sign of a well-made low/no-budget film.
@DNTMEE
@DNTMEE Ай бұрын
Well, not so much to walk it off, but perhaps because he had "learned" from the nightmare and felt safer just staying in the light and walking to stay in the next area of light. Or, he felt he was in no condition to drive and that could result in his death as well. Most probably it was done that way to get us to watch the credits.

@nickfilippos3340 I never actually said he should drive, but rather just to get inside the truck (and perhaps call for help?). Like you said, he can barely walk. So trudging off into the unknown, alone, injured, in the dark, hardly seems like the practical choice.

1) He's injured, can't drive 2) Probably creators wanted to show it's relatively safe to move through darkness to the light source, but just in case he still turns the flashlight on. :) I think they needed to show him walking to the light source like in alternative world. Indicating he really escaped and there is nothing to be scared of rn.

Wow this was really good! I'm really glad that once he woke up, the monster wasn't in the real world because a lot of bad horror shorts or movies will try to pull something like that for a cheap scare. I liked the "Lies" concept and the idea that this was all just in his head while he was passed out was really good. My only complaint would be the pacing. It was really slow at times. This works for some shorts or movies but it didn't really work here in my opinion. A lot of the scenes could have been cut out and the story would have still worked perfectly fine. Had a majority of the filler long shots been shortened or replaced I think it would have been much easier to watch. I also don't understand why he walked away at the end. His left foot was injured but he could still drive. Just doesn't make much sense to me imo. It doesn't bring the story down or anything, just a bit confusing. Great Short Film!

@@nickfilippos3340 He was able to lunge and roll out of the road, light up a smoke, stand up and walk. You could argue that he was took shaken up maybe but that still doesn't explain leaving the car on and walking for who knows how far until you get help. At the very least resting in the car would have been a smarter idea. (Not to mention that his left leg is the injured one. You use your right leg to drive) In Short, he could still drive in a straight line just fine based on his previous actions.

A well done video in all respects. Still ... don't just drop the matchbox. Light it with the last match. First the inner part, then light the outer part with the inner part when it is just about burned out. Better yet, twist up each if them tightly first as it should slow down the burning process somewhat. Maybe even tear each into sections and twist each up to increase the overall burn time. Then there's using your clothing as something to burn for much greater time. Again, in pieces to really extend it. And if waking him up was the goal, his brain should have jump-scared him awake up using the monster right off instead of dragging it all out like that. OTOH, from a cinematic point of view, making him go through all that and somehow waking him up just in time is the way to go. And, there is the fact we don't tend to act logically in dreams either. We take things as they come with very little planning ahead (if any). Maybe his particular subconscious brain likes making him fight for his life instead of taking the easy, quick way out. I know mine does. It seems to particularly like making me unable to find my car, having the plane I'm in crash, and unable to find my way back into a building I just left. Maybe it's little ways to get revenge for me making it work so hard while awake.

Base things on real life things they've heard or seen. Like the true story of the guy seeing the Upside-down lamp in his home, had a wife, 10 and 8 year old kid. While staring at the lamp one day trying to figure out why he was seeing only it Upside-down, he became aware as "waking up", in his back staring up at a lamp post on the sidewalk with prime standing all around. Found out he'd been knocked out for a few minutes by a guy, and had lived a while lifetime growing up and having his own kids. It was like real life to him. He had to go to therapy for years to mourn the fake family he dreamt up while knocked out.

This was great and scary, but I have a few questions Why did he keep wasting matches by setting them down while walking to the other light when he could’ve just lit his jacket on fire and had a torch? He could’ve even just lit the box on fire and used his hair to embolden the flame. He should’ve just hopped in the car to sit awhile, then drove away because walking with an injured leg just down a dark road is kinda weird when u have a car WHY did he try lighting a match on the box when he could’ve just touched it to the other match? Shouldn’t he have just not trusted the words immediately when it said that monster thingamajig was helpful? Like I would have just said “nope I’m not trusting that thing or these words I’m outta here” Still good and kinda scary tho nice job

Minimalist and eerie af. Love the premise of dropping a guy into that situation, no explanation, just have to go with it. I didn’t think that the chalk outline was a could be, instead of a reality, so the end was a total surprise! And I love that there was no jump scare with the thingamajig at the end. It makes the slightly disturbed feel cling on, rather than using some cheap fright to ruin the mood you carefully built up to. Loved it!

9/10 Mostly fantastic. The part with the matches was not believable. Nobody would be that wasteful and reckless with the limited supply of matches.

I guess people dont get the ending. He takes a step towards the car, and see's the head lights are dying and because he's still traumatised by his nightmare, which is shown by his shaking hands. He takes out his flashlight and walks towards the light in the distance.

I didn't get the ending right away, but he wasn't going to risk going behind lights after his subconscious-dreamscape-tutorial-nightmare; headlights, not the truck-cab: lights' safety margin thwarted some clearly-present-mortal-danger & high-viz-vest saved his ass & PPE.

Ooh, this is a good one, sent shivers down my spine. I like horrors that don't rely on jumpscares, those are so overdone they've become annoying now.

Me too. For me, Jumpscares are the laziest of Horror scares. Give me a good one like this, that is suspenseful, ominous, and atmospheric any day of the week ... far more scary, and memorable

This was creepy and intense. Very well-done, and shows what you can do with a minimalist setup as long as you're creative enough. I did NOT like what I saw at 13:13.

about the time writings appears saying fear the dark, I would have said FEAR YOU! and just took off running and screaming right into that fearful darkness as a way of telling whoever was writing that I didn't give a flying fear about them or him or it or she or whatever. 9:12 not real light from a match. More like a welding torch.

13:40 you have to be joking. No one is going to keep trying to start a new match that way if it isn't working. They would just put the match over the BURNING ONE. nah, it was okay till then. Now, I don't care about him at all.

Ok, so. -why "Thingmajig"? -wdym he can help? What he would do? -Why the matches were with them in the dream but not the light?
@HKOttoni

- cause “Thingamajig” means “The one who don’t want to be mentioned” or “the one whos forgot his own name” - cause the fact that the creature was running to him has provoked his awakening (consider it was a nightmare) - but the light was there. Our brain have defense mechanisms against things that means danger to our health, even when we’re asleep, fainted or whatever. The lights going out made him (in the nightmare) search for some way to resolve the situation, touch the system and get electrified was the way his brain founded to woke him up.
