His wife Sarah cheated on him with his friend. He killed both of them and his daughter at the same time. And he kills them in his thoughts repeatedly, over and over again. This is his personal Hell. His Hole.
I love that idea. I love that you also understood that the hole itself while yes is physically there, there is also a metaphorical meaning to it as well. Thanks so much for watching the film!
@@ZaharaZ444 3 different answers and all dumb as fk. Why would you make a movie about something so dumb that it takes 3 obscure answer's and to be honestly thick as fck to write and release it on a platform that proves just how dumb it is? This is the dumbest crap ever.
We LOVED it! A trip down a hole and a peek in the mirror!! Will the loop end? We don’t know! What do we know? That we give this unsettling film 3 lighthouses!!🏮🏮🏮
This was simply fantastic ! I agree 100% that many of the shorts I see on here are far better than anything Hollywood and the streaming services have to offer. Making something this good yet still this short is like watching Rod Serling or Alfred Hitchcock. You totally knocked this outta the park ! This story and another short on here titled "The Chair" are the two best films I've seen this year. Definitely subscribing ! (Forgive me for mentioning the other short on here, but I think you'd enjoy it)
Definitely. You have earned the right to tell anyone that your name is "Bond... Connor Bond" 😂 All kidding aside. You and Chris Fontakis were both terrific ! Frank Theodore is the man too !
Thanks for commenting! Yes, for some reason the audio seemed to have gotten lowered during the upload for some odd reason. I am currently working on subtitles to try to help :)
SPOILER WARNING: ....He didn't have to kill him?! Just wait for his past self to go into the hole, and he's good LOVED the film, to be clear! Amazing cinematography and suspense
Thanks for watching! So happy you liked it! As for your comment, I would agree that technically you are correct, BUT when writing I tried to add some dialogue that serves as to the reason why he can't stay. The obvious one being at the end saying that he can't risk him running into himself, but also when they are outside arguing. Anthony says some key things out there. Maybe give it a second watch? 😀
Everything was great. But am I the only one here with OCD that felt a slight bit of anxiety when he ripped off the paper towel to clean the corkscrew and it didn't rip all the way leaving that small, pesky little piece behind?
Not really. But I might be worse. I'm a 30 plus year Master Plumber and I was kinda miffed that the single hole Kitchen sink faucet control is supposed to be placed at the 3 O'clock position, not 9 O'clock 😂
very unique coverage of unresolved infidelity resentment… the anthony character was portrayed so well, not just his acting, but the very presentation of the typical cowardly dependent beta who are always the ones you need to be wary of. they are the most vulnerable to committing exactly these kinda crimes. well done👍🏻
I have questions: What would have happened if Jack met himself? What happened when Sarah met herself? Did they both go insane and kill each other? And why did Anthony not simply cover the hole rather than try to fill it in? Why did Jack not go back down the hole to his own dimension? Does the hole represent an unresolved issue in Anthony's psyche? Is it a literal "memory hole" down which he drops his problems? Were his wife and daughter going to leave him? If so, did Anthony "dispose" of them?
Good short with rough sound mixing. The music could do with being quieter or the dialogue louder, especially near the end where the music drowns the dialogue out.
That’s a fair criticism. Small budget filmmaking comes with its challenges. I did add subtitles to help though! Over all glad to hear you liked it over all! Appreciate you taking the time to watch 🙂
@@TheeHairWitch I do have a new sound mix of the film but I’m conflicted about re-uploading because the film has gained a good amount of traction and if I delete and re-upload, it won’t do as well 🙃🙃
@@frank__theodore I don't think it's necessary. Your film making talent simply speaks for itself. I wish you a very long and very rewarding film making career. You are so very talented to have created this. Respect from Pittsburgh, PA my friend
Wow! This is Jackie. OmG 😳 omg that f*cked my brain hole! What the h*ll!?! I loved it! I felt all those emotions it was messed up wow. That was dark and emotional. Kinda creepy. That really made me feel emotion and add to that it’s your faces I’m looking at. It was hilarious and horrible a tragedy ugh! I love you guys so much thank you so much for the workshops it made everything in my life better. I’m so grateful I need to come to improv jams in the spring and summer. I feel grateful you both did good work. I like this art hehe. Make more you guys work well together. The ending felt traumatic it messed with my emotions. It was scary. It was clever and scary anyway I could keep going. I want to act too! It looks fun 😇🖖🏻🪬🙏🏻 oh I’ve been doing karaoke every Friday in Putnam Valley lately thanks to you recommending I do karaoke. I’m getting better too I nailed jewel and Alana’s morissette songs men got emotional it worked! Thanks for musical improv I feel like it saved my life. Now I have something fun and social to do for the next 4-6 decades we all have to live. Heh. Funny. Yeah comedy it works for me. See ya.
This was strange. He couldn't allow his friend to run into himself. When his wife ran into herself...he said it was bad. He never mentions the daughter, except at the beginning when he said his wife and daughter have been in the hole for three months. That painting on the wall was odd...it looked like a man falling inside a hole.
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words. As this is the first film that I ever wrote and directed, you saying that means a lot! So happy you enjoyed it! More films to come. - Frank
It is not based on a short story, this is an original idea. Was there a specific short story that you had in mind that the film reminded you of? So happy you enjoyed the film, thanks so much for watching!
I am generally not a fan of horror movies as I am almost always left disappointed but this really is a remarkable film--the plot, acting, cinematography and editing all first rate.
Okey , i have a theory. The direction of Sarah’s picture and the painting on the wall are not the same. ( left-right). Houses are not the same. So, he entered PARALLEL UNIVERSE not is his universe. Sarah entered another parallel universe, too. I gues baby couldn’t cross over to any universe.
I think Ant is crazy and had this idea of some alternative hole (he had it planned on his notebook)... Then he tryed the hole with the kid, who died... and then the mother went to the hole to try to save the kid, and she returned angry about him killing the kid... and Ant killed the wife. And now he invited Jack to show him the hole... I think Ant has dual personality and jack is his other one. They are the same person. And Ant want jack to desappear... but he comes back ... Did I get it right? Like when jack tried to reach Ant and couldn't... they said WE have responsabilities now...
Yes.. 😅 lol actually no. The home that we filmed in for the most part was left untouched except for the large headless painting, the table setting at dinner and adding the family photograph. BUT that being said, the circular decorations is something that I myself haven't even noticed until you pointed it out. Sometimes in filmmaking you just get lucky and things work in your favor. So cool that you noticed that detail. Thank you for watching the film and I'm so happy you enjoyed it!
Out of all the church friends I last last summer, I kept two of them and I sent them this because it’s interesting and one rebuked me and said she rebukes the devil in me. I’m so glad I don’t go there anymore! Omg I was so brain washed by those people. I won’t details but them that run it are monsters and the women are brain washed. Thank God!! She rebuked me for sending this. I feel so proud of myself! I really liked this I had to play student because I see you both as my teachers (I’m talking to the actors here) comedy is way better than any other subject I ever studied. I know this is horror but it still makes me laugh not the bad scene I can’t laugh there but I’ll say I feel like Jack every single day pretty much every where I go. It’s like I’m just normal then someone goes nuts and I’m like well now what do I do, don’t get cork screwed. That’s what I’m trying to avoid. I can relate to Jack. Oh it’s Jackie btw. This is my second and last comment on here most likely. I liked sharing this with my friends oh my sister likes it lol. The church lady rebuked me though well Satan in me she said. It made me so happy. I can’t believe I was that brain washed by that church and I knew they were bad the first time I went there but my boyfriend lied to me so much who brought me it was like I was under mind control. It was awful! It was like The Hole the controlling and abusive people there and others I’ve met in the past made no sense at all. Hurting people is pointless. Chris is good at playing bad I’ve seen creepy expressions like that a lot. He kinda scares me all the time. I know he’s nice though. Anyway I just got rebuked by a church lady for sharing this. I feel kinda proud actually. I went from Jehovah’s Witness to non denominational to rebuked lol. I’m actually happy thank you God thank you Jesus. I don’t need church anymore, I can just read the Bible on my own follow Matt Fraser I read his books! Anyway I’m officially no longer friends with a ton of church people now. It feels lonely but better. I feel like a stronger smarter person. No longer being manipulated or lied. I was so lied to and I just played along because deep inside I knew at the time it could be worse. I don’t want to live in denial ever again. Ever. I want real people around people who love unconditionally and are not brain washed people who aren’t wolves or sheep something better. I’d rather be rebuked by sheep being led by wolves than be a sheep again being lied to every single day it mental and spiritual warfare to lies to so much. I hate lying, pretending for fun is how I like to play when everyone knows it’s pretend. Truth is paramount. Anyway… I hope we all have a Disney ending. I’m working on manifesting a mansion in the hills and Lamborghini 😉 I’ll have to play the lotto or something can’t hurt to try lol.
You rock Jackie!! We both are always so happy to have you as a student. It makes me so happy comedy (and now drama haha) has brought so much joy to your life. It’s the only thing on this earth I’ve ever wanted to do: attempt to make stories that connect with people. Your comment meant a lot to me. See you on the funny/improv side of town soon! - Connor
It sounds to me like you just weren’t with the right people. Not all people that go to church are hurtful in ANY way. But I’ve definitely had my share of not going because another girl in the congregation was bullying me, so I understand.
bro. bro even the wine is called "Kavernos" (cavernous, i.e., hole) and its logo is reflected upside down over a patch of soil(?). Then when the Other Jack brings HIS wine, the label is backwards right from the get go. like. bro. the cinnamon tografy...
You’re the first person to acknowledge the wine bottle label in the comments. So happy someone finally noticed it! Thanks so much for the comment and thanks so much for watching the film!
I dont think I understand. Does the hole get bigger with each person? Is the hole a metaphor? He didn't kill his family he said, is that true? Where is the baby? Did he push the baby? Is this guy just delusional? Is only one guy a killer?
Hello! Thanks so much for watching the film and leaving a comment! A lot of the questions you are asking do have answers that are placed throughout the film through the dialogue. As for if the hole is a metaphor, yes. At least to some degree. Of course there is an actual physical hole that is shown in the film but simultaneously it does have a metaphorical meaning. What that meaning is, I will not tell just yet. As for the rest of your questions, like I said, a lot of them can be answered through listening to what the characters are saying. I would recommend maybe giving it another watch to see if you can catch some of the small comments and strange things that Anthony says to Jack. Thanks again for checking it out 🙂
You've created a good mood...but I'm afraid I dont get it...there are too many plot holes (sorry) for me to be invested. The cinematography is good and the actor playing Jack is top notch. Screenplay could use some re-writes. Look forward to your next short. Good luck on the next project. Edit: and yes, like everyone else mentioned, the sound needs an overhaul.
I appreciate you watching the film! Sorry you didn’t seem to love it but that’s okay! It was my first one so I have lots to learn but seriously appreciate you taking the time to watch it. Hopefully you will enjoy the next one!
@@frank__theodore You're welcome, and I realise you are still learning! Not everyone will love your work and like I said, there were many things to like about the film. For a first film it is very good. The main thing is the story itself (screenplay) it needs re-writes and maybe finding someone who can help in that regard would get it to the point where it is bulletproof. The main thing you've got is a pretty good sense of pacing and editing...and you've got the actor who played Jack, which elevates everything. My advice would be to find folks who are at his level. The other actor (although not bad) is not near the same level, and the unfortunate truth is that that brings the whole piece down slightly. Again, not putting it down just giving you my two cents. The same thing happened to me on one of my shorts and it was a lesson learned. Casting is key. Anyway, thanks for the response and I look forward to your future work.
I’m not even halfway through and I’ve lost interest. Scientists want us to believe there are other universes, but none of them can explain how come other versions of us haven’t already crossed over into our universe. I think it’s nonsense; there’s only one version of each human being and our world is all we have.
I can explain that easily. If each "world" is a mirror of our own, and each person a mirror of THEIR own, then HOW could they "crossover," if WE haven't managed it yet? Wouldn't ALL universes discover the ability to do so at the exact same time? Thereby mirroring all other universes? Unless we are suggesting that they aren't "Mirror's," and have drastic changes. Like allies losing WWII, etc. Well, that opens up quantum entanglement and causality. As well as the question of time, time dilation and "string theory." Now we're ready for a discussion. 😂😂 I'm no scientist, but I do find the overall idea fascinating. Not sure I believe it, but there are lot's of questions to be asked. 😂😂
Nifty concept but too many problems in the plot. Perhaps that’s what "the hole" is - a giant plot hole? If the dude went in the hole and entered the mirror universe, and the mirror universe was operating 6-8 hours behind the prime universe, how could they have the discussion over the corkscrew before the guy went into the hole the first time? The plot needs some major, major overhauling for this concept to work.
Appreciate you checking out the film. Sorry you feel like it doesn’t make sense though. The only thing I would say in defense of the script is it was never established how many hours behind the mirror universe is operating. So not sure where you got the 6-8 hours from? Either way, myself and the team appreciate you watching and taking the time to write a comment. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the next one more 👍🏼
@@frank__theodore I was making a guess about the length of time based on the amount of time that appears to pass between with the guy shows up at the front door, goes through the whole greeting and subsequent discussion in the kitchen, the entire meal and after dinner time, then the stuff that takes place outside. It could have been only two to three hours, true, but it was definitely several hours, not just a few minutes. My point was that the two timelines had to be off by at least that much, causing it to not make sense that the guy has already come back through the hole before the events we’re seeing unfold in the film. The timelines just don’t make any sense to me. But the film was definitely fun to watch! (Sorry, I studied Narrative Strategies in film school back when I got my film degree 35 years ago, so I always think about how a plot is put together when I watch anything. Maybe that makes me overly critical. Take everything I’m saying with that in mind.)
@@JeremyVahle As far as I understand, Sarah did not return. Hole was the passage for mirror world. Whatever happens in real world also happen in the mirror world. Instead of killing him, he could have told his friend to return back to his world. Sarah was missing in both the world. That's only the mistery.
Thanks so much for watching the film and I am so happy it is causing a dialogue. I wont go into too many details as that would ruin the fun. I will say that it is not so much of a mirror world, but more of a "Alternate Timeline". The idea is that at some point, when Jess went down the hole and came out of it. She is now no longer in her timeline. So Now, there would be two Jess's walking around. And then the same thing for Sarah. Obviously Anthony tried for both of the Sarah's to stay in the one time line together but as he said "They saw each other and it was really, really bad" So yea its supposed to let your imagination run wild on what exactly happened there. So when Jack comes, he can't rink him running into himself and he can't send him back where he came from. So that only leaves one option. I would recommend maybe watching it again. There are a few pieces of key dialogue that don't just outright tell you but give you some more context as to what is going on. Either way, thanks so much for checking it out and giving it a chance. - Frank
I didn't sed that one coming,its like bizarre o world. Left me needing to see more! He didn't need much convincing to go inthat hole,what do you mean other people? Ok im in
Interesting. A hole that cannot be filled, and whatever is put in it is both gone and won't go away.
There is much to unpack here. Well done.
Appreciate you checking out the film! Glad you liked it!
Sounds a lot like addiction
Ich frage mich immer wieder, warum diese Kurzfilme wesentlich besser sind als der ganze Hollywood-Quark. Dieser hier war echt klasse!

I don’t need church anymore, I can just read the Bible on my own follow Matt Fraser I read his books! Anyway I’m officially no longer friends with a ton of church people now. It feels lonely but better. I feel like a stronger smarter person. No longer being manipulated or lied. I was so lied to and I just played along because deep inside I knew at the time it could be worse. I don’t want to live in denial ever again. Ever. I want real people around people who love unconditionally and are not brain washed people who aren’t wolves or sheep something better. I’d rather be rebuked by sheep being led by wolves than be a sheep again being lied to every single day it mental and spiritual warfare to lies to so much. I hate lying, pretending for fun is how I like to play when everyone knows it’s pretend. Truth is paramount. Anyway… I hope we all have a Disney ending. I’m working on manifesting a mansion in the hills and Lamborghini 😉 I’ll have to play the lotto or something can’t hurt to try lol.
You rock Jackie!! We both are always so happy to have you as a student. It makes me so happy comedy (and now drama haha) has brought so much joy to your life. It’s the only thing on this earth I’ve ever wanted to do: attempt to make stories that connect with people. Your comment meant a lot to me. See you on the funny/improv side of town soon! - Connor
It sounds to me like you just weren’t with the right people. Not all people that go to church are hurtful in ANY way. But I’ve definitely had my share of not going because another girl in the congregation was bullying me, so I understand.
Parallel universe
His hair changed sides when he came outta the hole
That's not the only thing that is flipped 😵💫
bro. bro even the wine is called "Kavernos" (cavernous, i.e., hole) and its logo is reflected upside down over a patch of soil(?). Then when the Other Jack brings HIS wine, the label is backwards right from the get go. like. bro. the cinnamon tografy...
You’re the first person to acknowledge the wine bottle label in the comments. So happy someone finally noticed it!
Thanks so much for the comment and thanks so much for watching the film!
I dont think I understand. Does the hole get bigger with each person? Is the hole a metaphor? He didn't kill his family he said, is that true? Where is the baby? Did he push the baby? Is this guy just delusional? Is only one guy a killer?
Hello! Thanks so much for watching the film and leaving a comment!
A lot of the questions you are asking do have answers that are placed throughout the film through the dialogue. As for if the hole is a metaphor, yes. At least to some degree. Of course there is an actual physical hole that is shown in the film but simultaneously it does have a metaphorical meaning. What that meaning is, I will not tell just yet.
As for the rest of your questions, like I said, a lot of them can be answered through listening to what the characters are saying. I would recommend maybe giving it another watch to see if you can catch some of the small comments and strange things that Anthony says to Jack.
Thanks again for checking it out 🙂
Fill it up with water and go swimming.
So how come Anthony doesn't lower a camera or send a drone down the hole? 🤔
You've created a good mood...but I'm afraid I dont get it...there are too many plot holes (sorry) for me to be invested. The cinematography is good and the actor playing Jack is top notch. Screenplay could use some re-writes. Look forward to your next short. Good luck on the next project.
Edit: and yes, like everyone else mentioned, the sound needs an overhaul.
I appreciate you watching the film! Sorry you didn’t seem to love it but that’s okay! It was my first one so I have lots to learn but seriously appreciate you taking the time to watch it.
Hopefully you will enjoy the next one!
@@frank__theodore You're welcome, and I realise you are still learning! Not everyone will love your work and like I said, there were many things to like about the film. For a first film it is very good. The main thing is the story itself (screenplay) it needs re-writes and maybe finding someone who can help in that regard would get it to the point where it is bulletproof. The main thing you've got is a pretty good sense of pacing and editing...and you've got the actor who played Jack, which elevates everything. My advice would be to find folks who are at his level. The other actor (although not bad) is not near the same level, and the unfortunate truth is that that brings the whole piece down slightly. Again, not putting it down just giving you my two cents. The same thing happened to me on one of my shorts and it was a lesson learned. Casting is key. Anyway, thanks for the response and I look forward to your future work.
I’m not even halfway through and I’ve lost interest. Scientists want us to believe there are other universes, but none of them can explain how come other versions of us haven’t already crossed over into our universe. I think it’s nonsense; there’s only one version of each human being and our world is all we have.
I can explain that easily. If each "world" is a mirror of our own, and each person a mirror of THEIR own, then HOW could they "crossover," if WE haven't managed it yet? Wouldn't ALL universes discover the ability to do so at the exact same time? Thereby mirroring all other universes? Unless we are suggesting that they aren't "Mirror's," and have drastic changes. Like allies losing WWII, etc. Well, that opens up quantum entanglement and causality. As well as the question of time, time dilation and "string theory." Now we're ready for a discussion. 😂😂 I'm no scientist, but I do find the overall idea fascinating. Not sure I believe it, but there are lot's of questions to be asked. 😂😂
Im so confused! Can someone explain this short film? I feel dumb 😢
Interestelar.. pero con una linea de tiempo lineal
Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nifty concept but too many problems in the plot. Perhaps that’s what "the hole" is - a giant plot hole? If the dude went in the hole and entered the mirror universe, and the mirror universe was operating 6-8 hours behind the prime universe, how could they have the discussion over the corkscrew before the guy went into the hole the first time? The plot needs some major, major overhauling for this concept to work.
Appreciate you checking out the film. Sorry you feel like it doesn’t make sense though.
The only thing I would say in defense of the script is it was never established how many hours behind the mirror universe is operating. So not sure where you got the 6-8 hours from? Either way, myself and the team appreciate you watching and taking the time to write a comment. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the next one more 👍🏼
@@frank__theodore I was making a guess about the length of time based on the amount of time that appears to pass between with the guy shows up at the front door, goes through the whole greeting and subsequent discussion in the kitchen, the entire meal and after dinner time, then the stuff that takes place outside. It could have been only two to three hours, true, but it was definitely several hours, not just a few minutes. My point was that the two timelines had to be off by at least that much, causing it to not make sense that the guy has already come back through the hole before the events we’re seeing unfold in the film. The timelines just don’t make any sense to me. But the film was definitely fun to watch!
(Sorry, I studied Narrative Strategies in film school back when I got my film degree 35 years ago, so I always think about how a plot is put together when I watch anything. Maybe that makes me overly critical. Take everything I’m saying with that in mind.)
try checking your volume before you post, thanks
The hole
He shouldn't bring him to the hole then
The ending didn't make much sense to me.. found it difficult to understand
What a cowardly and ineffectual antagonist.
"The Hole" reminded me of my Ex BF
It does not make sense. Why did he k!ll him?
Because Sarah came back, he let her stay, and it was bad. Your imagination gets to run down the rabbit hole and THAT is a great part of the movie.
@@JeremyVahle As far as I understand, Sarah did not return. Hole was the passage for mirror world. Whatever happens in real world also happen in the mirror world. Instead of killing him, he could have told his friend to return back to his world.
Sarah was missing in both the world. That's only the mistery.
Thanks so much for watching the film and I am so happy it is causing a dialogue. I wont go into too many details as that would ruin the fun. I will say that it is not so much of a mirror world, but more of a "Alternate Timeline". The idea is that at some point, when Jess went down the hole and came out of it. She is now no longer in her timeline. So Now, there would be two Jess's walking around. And then the same thing for Sarah. Obviously Anthony tried for both of the Sarah's to stay in the one time line together but as he said "They saw each other and it was really, really bad" So yea its supposed to let your imagination run wild on what exactly happened there. So when Jack comes, he can't rink him running into himself and he can't send him back where he came from. So that only leaves one option. I would recommend maybe watching it again. There are a few pieces of key dialogue that don't just outright tell you but give you some more context as to what is going on.
Either way, thanks so much for checking it out and giving it a chance.
- Frank
Thanks so much for the compliment! So happy you liked the film!@@JeremyVahle
So he could make the hole bigger and bigger until he himself can fit.
Can't hear the dialogue over the music.
He was...very stupid, if he'd just thought a little bit more and not killed him...just..ugh, just...just ugh

Too long and too much talking put me into a suspended animation!
