I can fix Betty.
He's clearly not cut out for that sort of work
This was amazing and disturbing. Well done.
Thank you Jason
I wonder if this is how internet content moderators feel irl 🤣
Nah, it's worst. After all, one shot himself on Facebook live.
@@HilljoonaI hope you're not serious frightened absolutely frightened if it is true
Strewth, this just grabs you by the lapels and keeps screaming into your face right until the end. Super-disturbing - great acting and cool effects. Great work!
My oath cobber!
I'm starting to feel sorry for these internet content moderators ! Terrifying short film with Clive Barker-like tones. Cast and crew - I don't know whether to thank you or sue you ! If you set out to scare me, you succeeded ! All the best !
Acting 💯 directing 💯
Really really fantastic work!! Polished and professional in every way! Not to mention disturbing as hell! Great job and great future ahead!
Absolutely phenomenal cinematography and performance.
That was a wild ride - hope I never need a job that bad. Excellent acting and special effects; kudos!
dude… this was different. the cinematography, casting, was incredible. only bad thing is i want much more!!! omw to binge all ur others😋
This is what I call satisfying horror! Very good one.
Why did he even come to do this sort of work when he visibly can't handle it? Lmao.
I'm betting he never thought it would be THIS bad.
When he listened to the voicemail we can hear that he was searching a job for a while, so maybe he didn’t have a choice
the effects used over the man in the computer creates this surreal bad trip vibe very eerie ❤
One of my favorite horror shorts of the 2023 festival season! Pure nightmare fuel, in the best way.
As a content moderator, i absolutely relate to this. It's not easy. They say, go home and try to forget about what you saw. It's not that simple! You are never the same ever again. The things we see....takes away hope for humanity. I've seen executions, a lot of CP, babies being raped, animals being tortured, it's a lot.
During the Iraq war I had the horrible pleasure of having to watch thousands of hours of AQI torture videos that we got from raids. Shit still haunts me
Thousands?
I appreciate your service.
You aren’t alone my friend. I was a HUMINTER, tasked out to combat units with 1/4ID. We went the through everything we captured with a fine toothed comb. I don’t think about those videos during the day much anymore, but nighttime, dreaming, it’s all still there. I don’t look at power tools or burn barrels quite the same way anymore. You really aren’t alone.
I hope they compensate you for a life time.
I pray for you who suffer for others. You are heroes. And I thank you.
* We have to know that the evil has always been there. Our knowledge didn't change that. What we can do is add to the kindness and empathy the world needs now and always.
Very good short. Although it would benefit from behing a full length movie. Could be amazing.
A casual day for a Facebook moderator.
This is quite good. This is one of the few shorts that I think would actually work better as a slow-burn movie though.
Honestly one of the best horror shorts I've seen in a while. Would have watched a feature length film about it.
this is about us clicking Like button on every short horroor film
This is the creepiest short film I've ever seen. Extremely well done on all levels. Actually, better than most two hour horror films I've seen this year.
Phenomenal! The sound design is crazy!
Damn, this was good! Well done!
Wow so DARK but BEAUTIFULly made - story, dialogue, composition, acting! Great job!
Such a great production. Love the color grading.
I said let me watch one more video before bed...damn thinking its going to be a tough night. Seriously, Wow!! Amazing short! Well done! I can't wait to see what you do next!!!
Glad you checked it out! Thanks for watching
Great job Burt!
*Magnificently horrifying!*
✨🖤👻🖤✨
This was better than the horror movies I see nowadays, didn’t expect it.
Wow!! This was an awesome short film!! Very engaging and looked great!! The actors were believable and sold it! I look forward to watching more of your work! (Just subscribed!)
Quite an interesting yet horrific little tale.
Brilliant work! Im very impressed... i want more now, just like those viewers clamour for more more more...
#2 🎥🎬OF 2024!!!!!!
That was messed up. Truly amazing job, brought something new to the table
What a great what a great short definitely top 10. Wow great storyline great actors. This definitely should get 50,000 views in the next two or three months absolutely top 10. This is excellent excellent excellent🎉🎉🎉🎉
Amazing piece!! Never even thought of this! ❤
crazy stuff. well done. we need to keep in mind, there are people out there that actually do this for a living, CPS etc. i cant imagine the horrors they view daily.
Perfect short!,,,
This was phenomenal.
Very well done!!!
VERY Impressive.
Wow! Now this was superb!
I’ve watched a quite a few horror shorts on here, this is definitely one of the better ones
This was really great. Awesome concept, executed extremely well. Best horror film I've seen in a while. I love psychological horror.❤
Brilliant! True artistic genius doesn't require a long runtime but this one definitely deserves and is capable of it! :D
What is the most haunting part of this genius?
.
.
Those recordings are all sourced from real life, which is therefore our lives, which therefore means WE are the main character!
THE TRUE HORROR OF THIS IS UNDENIABLE!
This is the value of art.
This is amazing! Well done. Great use of sounds, effects, and visuals. Piercing together our emotions we've all felt like coming across something we were not expecting to witness. The way you feel after seeing these images. You can definitely relate to this piece. Thank you!
I appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
@@mikerichfilmsyou are welcome. Thank you for what you do.
You guys did a great job!
dude that was crazy
I was stuck in a queue at Disney World for 75 minutes in 98 degree Florida heat trying to get on Space Mountain. It was torture.
That's the sequel
Haha it feels wrong watching this at 3pm in the after. Noone but no need hide behind a pillow then lol x
#2 TIME WATCHING THIS & MY 🩸 PRESSURE IS ALREADY HIGH!! THIS HAS TO BE #1 NEW 🎥 IN 2024!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR " FULL LENGTH 🎥 AFTER BERT COMES BACK TO GET ANOTHER" 🧟♀️🧟♀️🧟♀️🧟♀️🧟♀️"
Really enjoyed this! Glad I stumbled upon you, keep creating. Also am I weird for thinking this would be a cool job lol.
Maybe a little bit 😂
That's a successful movie !
Great short , love it
After watching so much gore back in the day...i refuse to anymore because now i hate humans and don't trust a soul. I'm talking FACES OF DEATH days, Rotten, Liveleak, ect. 😢 Then, there was my forensic nursing book. I can't get those visions out of my head. Amazing film, man.
That was definitely an inspiration for me. Being younger and stumbling on dark videos. Wanted to recreate that feeling I had. Thanks for watching!
It's better not to trust humans than trust and get betrayed. It's better to get immunizied through screen than get the plague oc the real deal. I got the plague and today I can't feel anything. Not fir dyinv babies, noflt for tortired kids, nothing. I'm empty. You git lucky you got to know what people can do before they did it to you.
WHAT HAPPENED TO BERT, DOES HE JOIN " THEM OR IT"???🤔🤔🤔PART ✌🏽, PLEASE!!🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣
I think they didn’t brief him well on the job if he cracked that fast
Enjoyed it Michael! Original.
This channel is definitely going to blow up! I can see this moving to Shudder, and then on the big screen, much like Late Night with the Devil and independent film channel or IFC. I have watched almost all of @Alter horror, movies, and have ran out of good films on RUclips, and thankfully, I found this channel! I will be watching Viral next.🎉 Subscribing!
awesome!
I liked this film.
OMG 🤯🤯🤯🤯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ AWESOME DEFINITELY HONESTLY 🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸
I'M WATCH 📺⌚ AT 2AM, AT LEAST IT ISN'T" 3AM" , DARLING 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬 GOING TO NEED THERAPY AFTER THIS 🎥🍿,
IF Y'ALL HAVE " HIGH 🩸 PRESSURE, DONT 🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣😬😬😬😬😬😬
Great film ! Can’t wait until my films get this lvl
This is Nth Room Level shit. Terrifying, disgusting, and saddening all balled up into one, this is an epic short that will only become more relevant with each passing year.
I wish it was different...I really do. 😢
Amazing short!
good one....thanks
Very, very good
Pretty good.
So what you're saying is, trolls that deliberately flag 10hr rickrolls for nudity are actually being kind to these guys.
This started off great then went off into left field
Reminds me of a Filipino movie entitled DELETER.😨
That's awesome. Will check that film out as well. The Actor in this is excellent, very intense - he carried the film well ❣️
Awesome movie!
Well done sir.👏👏👏👏

This is truly IMPRESSIVE! The ACTING, lightning, camera angles & story line! Consider me subscribed & enjoying the content! Thank you my friends!
🔥🔦🎥🎭🗿👊😎🗿🎭🎥🔦🔥
Someone should have deleted his death the way he deleted other people's at the end. that would have been more interesting to me. but that was overall a really great short film.
@@kyleg1464 The original ending we shot was the parking lot scene and then we pull out to show the boss at his desk the next morning moderating the video. Felt kinda goofy tho. We went back and forth whether he should be “deleted” or “approved” haha
Why does he not go away?
Wait....who's the actor in the beginning. I recognize his face.
This was very good for the most part, but the very end was meh! Other than that, a very impressive short.
That’s my dream job.
I enjoyed it but at the same time, I didnt understand it. Did he just go insane and hallucinate all that? The ending confused me a bit.
I don't think that was hallucinations.It seems to me ,he became just another victim As you can see his video is being reviewed by another guy.
@@memolyngkh3736 But another victim of what? It wasnt clear if there was an actual person that was putting his life in danger or if it was just a metaphor for being just another person working a dead-end job.
MR. RICH IS THERE GOING TO BE " PART ✌🏽 & FULL LENGTH 🎥, ITS GHETTO FABULOUS DISTURBING & MESSES WITH U MENTALLY VERBALLY PSYCHOLOGY EMOTIONALLY MENTALLY & SPIRITUALLY, ALL AT SAME, MICHAEL!!!!🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🧘🏽♀️🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪
