because of Covid-19 , its been weeks "Stay at Home" boring life. but when I watched this short horror movie, my boredom is gone. This is a must watch movie.
Just goes to show, you don't need a big Hollywood budget, just quality production!👍👍💖💞
Really good storytelling. His abuse wasn’t over the top, and it showed how she was both afraid of him and depended on him.

Brilliant!
So many ways to interpret this movie, from a gory horror angle, the depths of addiction to frightening psychosis, great pace & build up, very well made. The Jess actress is totally invested in the character & the Triffid plant predator is always a terrifying concept. I'll hope to see more work from FFP, thanks.
Oh TRIFFID ….. groovy Star Trek reference
@@user-xn7we8md6c I believe you're mixing Triffid's with Tribbles? The Triffids invaded Earth in a Meteor shower, [1963 movie] & the brightness of entering our atmosphere blinded those who watched the spectacle.
Made me think of The Ruins and Psycho at the same time. A good one.
Director did an amazing job in creating a truly frightening environment. Thank you to all for great short. Can’t wait to see more!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I agree 100%. Outstanding work at dark metaphorical storytelling on a very real subject of mental abuse in relationships.
WOW❤❤❤❤❤❤
Stay On The Path!!!!
Someone should've made a sign telling the woods to stay off the path 😆
The cinematography was extremely easy to follow with the story, it wasn’t to short or to drawn out & the lead actress deserves to be awarded for her performance. Well done! :)
My Dad owned the shop at the start of the film before he passed away...he named it "Tackle'n'Grub" just a useless bit of info...
Not useless by any means. Thank you for sharing your memories. 👍🤗
If it means something to you, ten it's FAR from useless my friend
sorry to hear that. he's fishing in heaven
Bored Eats hv you ever been fishing in heaven
Nonetheless interesting.
Nice nice niceeeeee. Boyfriend’s acting was spot on with abusive gaslighting. I wasn’t sure if that’s what he was doing at first bc as a victim of gaslighting it is extremely hard to pin point if you’re not looking for it or don’t know the signs. Left me feeling really distressed listening to him and watching her reactions because that’s how it really looks and feels. Hit home. Nicely done.
Very impressed with this, no over the top blood n gore, the goul on the Path looked n acted excellent as all of the performers, well done cast n crew n writer's, more pleees 😳😣🤪😔😉🙏🏽🕊️🇬🇧
Pretty girl becomes abuse victim of handsome evil boyfriend. People should realize how this story happens in reality in real relationships. This story uses deep dark wild horrifying visual metaphorical drama to emphasize how severe these situations can become. I think this short film is brilliantly done presenting a solid effort toward raising awareness of these type relationships...they're so often hidden inside this busy world where victims become lost though they might be publically seen...abusers can be very crafty at disguising their crimes.
This one needs to get to the box office IMO! Wow that creature is scary as hell.
Really loved the suspense you guys! It was all very well set up, and your performances sold it perfectly!
I’ve loved watching your ‘found footage’ horror movies ever since I first saw your film
“THE MUSEUM PROJECT” back in 2016.
I live in Australia too, and you guys have inspired me to make several short films of my own. I really do understand how hard it is to work with such a small budget, and I think you guys are extremely talented!
P.S. Thank you for reading this comment! And I can’t wait to see what else you make in the future, God bless!
I wonder whether its a movie industry policy for movie makers to make their horror film characters utterly incapable of staying together or following each other when outdoors.😂😅😂😂
This would make a hell of a good movie!! They should have definitely made it longer!! 💯
Yeah they should make long movie
Hell yes
I love how the amazing scenery was at once menacing and really beautiful, the overview shots were gorgeous and frightening. What a wonderful setting for this truly chilling tale that has such a deeper message of abuse. Excellent film.
while watching this i kept saying this guys an ass tell him your done the ending floored me . i so wanted the grove monster .what we do to each other is real horror .i prefer monsters .i come from abuse so i try to avoid and stick with monsters .this was so well done and acted if i could give out awards you would win 1 .all around and the acting great job thank you
Really great editing! I also loved that twist/shift at the end. Strong, and fun, way to end things.
Excellent work- very impressed🤗.
Very well constructed script, very tight, excellent acting - top notch. Nice segue into the last part.
Like the way the cinematography brought out the ominousness of the mangrove marshes...very eerie.
Great work
This was really good. A real-edge-of the seater. We'll written creepy music. The scenery in the forest looked like she would never get out of there.The boardwalk added the finishing touch. This was one I really enjoyed!😀😁👍👍
Maybe you can explain it to the slower of us?
@Artist 11 Yeah, probably so if I could just figure out what I wanted an explanation to. LOL
Can someone please explain the movie
Well-done. Thanks... Hehe - "Stay on the Path" [where we planted land-mines]? Those weed-tentacles! I instantly recalled "Evil Dead 2". herbicides, only herbicides! Run, baby, run. And send back some copters with Dioxin.// Also reminded me "The Willows" by good old Algernon Blackwood.... And the attempt to escape from nightmarish dreamscape - "Elm Street"...Poor girl.
@veronica carlson now that was a good movie, different but good.
Great job guys, got my attention quick. Scary at that.
Short but awesome movie , lot of times the short movies are the best , love it 👍
Wow, that's one powerful piece. My take away is severe PTSD. It may have stopped in reality but not in her mind.
I am super late in regards to commenting on this, but I am here now. Better late than never right? Anyway, great film as always folks. I expected no less. Well written and super creepy. So many twist and turns. Keep up the awesome. :)
Woke up just in time for the ending..Thank God.....
Great little Aussie horror film. Short but atmospheric, and really pulls of the ending well.
Very well done....absolutely brilliant...thank You
Great film and Australian, just makes been an Aussie feel even more awesome!
Jess did a helluva great job playing her role. 👏 She was so good, she had me feeling the atmospheric doom she endured. 5 stars. Award-winning here.
a really creepy gem of a movie,,,,,,,i love those """ open ending """""" specially on horror films like this one,,,
Whoa it is so good and so deep. Love love love this kind of horror. Melancholic and gothic vibe.
This was really good. Thank you.
this was well done, amazing work to everyone involved in this production.
Amazing! Great storyline and acting!
I'm watching this in entirety but ill go back to the train film for this time of year. That one was 100
Really well thought out movie, she actually looked like and acted like a domestic abuse victim from the first scene. Is this the only movie from this director? I'd like to see more
This was the best I ever seen I kinda got emotional I felt like the main character is in her own torture. I can relate this was amazing thank you .
Very well done, the young lady was exceptional.
I loved this, its good to see films being made in SA! Im hoping to make one of my own next year 🙂
Good luck!
That was terrific !!!
Put together beautifully.
This movie perfectly defines horror. Great job 👍
Such a sad but really well made film
Ít was a really good scary ghost movie! I really enjoyed it! Thanks for uploading! 👻🤙!
New subscriber 2020 thanks for the good movie from Puerto Rico
Really good Movie! Thx for sharing this with us. 99% of this movie takes place in the Main Character's head and it vaguely reminds me of Jacob's Ladder and even the videogame Silent Hill 5 Homecoming. I say the mangroves, and the woods represent her mind/brain; the root creature and ghostly humanoid beings represent her inner demons; The "Stay On The Path" signs represent that she MUST stay on the path of recovery, IF she is to change her predicament. The black wall poster in the Doctor's office blatantly spells this out, in addition to all the signs. The runtime is long, because :A)Of the HEAVY hellish nature of her recent past (then again, we don't know how long she's been in the hospital), which B)Causes her to revisit all the trauma in her psyche. In the end (pun intended), Her recovery is up to her-that's why the film ends the way it does. Also interesting how her appearance is somewhat corpselike-really drives home the gravity of the situation. Looking forward to seeing more films.
Just went for a walk through here today, was beautiful 😂
anyone watching this, if you have a s/o who tries to control you the way the guy controlled his g/f, LEAVE. That is not how it should be at all and you deserve better.
Awesome movie!! That's for the sharing. Please, keep them coming.

Goodness! I've never been this scared by a movie lol
Thank you for sharing (wink!)
To say I was impressed by this movie would be an understatement it looks great editing was great acting and story was also really good and the location is pretty brilliant and even the camera was telling a story from the overview shots to the weird angles and effects and best of all no jump scares it's just genuinely creepy 9/10
Lies lies and more lies. Was not scary at all. The first 13 minutes was boring. And the rest well...........
@@eleciarobinson6065 I'm sure there's plenty of movies full of jump scares you can go watch but none of those kind of movies ever make a top horror movie list or a greatest of all time list and God forbid they do some character building lol
@@Justaswise your right
@@eleciarobinson6065exactly
Groot is mad lmao
That's worse than capital punishment. Keeping her in a never-ending nightmare delusion.
I'm your new subscriber & going to share this movie with my friends & family
This is a great film! I'm kind of new to indie films but I can tell you guys know what you're doing! New subscriber here!
Please enable closed captions on your videos. Thanxs guys! Really enjoyed the video. Great work.❤
I really loved this movie👏👏👏👏
I like wood horror movies 💯💯
O my God. If i were jess.i dont know what to do if the ghost following me. I gonna die maybe in heart attack 😂😂😂
Great film in my view! Hope to see more like this
You are really cutting your audience short by not enabling closed captions 😭. I’m almost deaf and simply can’t watch due to having to watch at full volume…
Hi if you wear hearing aids you can pair them to iPad tv or phone the sound goes straight to your ear
@@jennifermilnes9943 Not sure that helps someone with a hearing disability. They need to READ to words not raise the volume.
Her boyfriend was mean and abusive towards her and I think leaving that relationship would be the answer.
Alrighty... after I read all the comments - good comments, I’m gonna watch this movie now... thanks guy xox
Fuck the comments. Watch and judge for yourself.
Same here...
Wow that was great, I loved it!! 😃
I really like this. Did surprise me. Dark for sure.
It's a short film that feels so much longer.
Wow. So good. So well done. Amazing.
This is extremely thriller & edge of the seat movie
I don't know what the name of the song at the end was,and surely couldn't understand it! However it was very soothing and relaxing 😊👍🏾👍🏾❤️
Well someone has watched the new evil dead. :p
It was a good short though good effects.
Nice movie, camera work is awesome
amazing location...creepy af....splendid aerial photography
It gave me the creeps, niiice !
Very good story. Real scary!
There's always a way out. Stay on the path to recovery.
Right
90% of the reviews are positive so I think I'll give it a try. Thanks for sharing your upload with us all.
Right its really good movie
Another gem, thanks!
I love india bhutiful girl
@@karanjeetsingh3325who asked you lol?
Love films set in Australia. This is a good suspense film.
Australia make great movies
I'm Aussie and have been disappointed by a lot of our movies..horror especially. We have some great ones but not that many IMO
@@nelliesilvers1210 Really? I've observed that Australia seems to make better horror than most countries.
@@rustinstardust2094 We do make good horror gore wise and we love our serial killer based movies which make for good storylines etc but I've just been let down a few times too many. Wolf Creek I absolutely loved but the second one disappointed me. It tried too hard.
We've definitely released some good ones but I think American based horror conquers our ideas
@@nelliesilvers1210 Ok, yes - I didn't get a chance to see the first Wolf Creek, but I saw the 2nd one streaming on Netflix a few years ago and you're right - it did not live up to Australia's horror film reputation
Me at the start: "she needs to leave an go to the hospital before trying to remove that vine thing"
Me near the end: ooooohhhhhhhh that makes more sense
beautifully done!
I really like the music that was playing
Thinkin' of Aussie movies, does anyone know what happened to that sequel to The Tunnel? :0
I totally forgot about that movie, tnx for reminding me of it 😃👍🏻✨✨✨✨✨
Tad late to the party here and no doubt everyone's departed already but if anything ended up coming of it (TT2), I've never seen nor heard anything about it. I'm a horror loving Aussie who has a particular soft spot for the FF subgenre so though there's a few above-mentioned reasons I'd like to think I'd be aware of its release (had there been one), no knowledge of its existence or even production outcome has reached my lil' grapevine.
P.S.. hope that made some semblance of sense. Up to my eyeballs on painkillers atm🥴🤤.
@@NellieSilvers1215Yeh, it seems lost. 😢
@@pouncingmoggy Unfortunately it does. It would've been a great premise to run with as well due to the ending being left open to interpretation and our imaginations left filling in the blanks of what they actually saw and fully experienced. Less is definitely more when it comes to revealing the creatures etc (the original Blair Witch showing less worked beautifully).
Yeah, I wouldn’t want them to overexplain, but it’d be fun to do a sort of journalistic expose the government lies kinda thing…
Very good short 👍🏻👍🏻
Whewwwww Luckily a great and ghastly -in a good way-horror.
You guys must be proud of the girls’ performance. She really nailed intensely and beautifully.
35 minutes of pure horror ❤️
(Nod) nothing ruins the potential for a great film like really bad acting. :)
Good job. Enjoyed this.
That was a good twist at the end
Watching at the moment😂
What a reason they came into mangrove??,that so creepy place..great short movie i like it,still watching from indonesia😊
Excellent,creepy,scary😬
Only in the movies does one get tripped up by a weed and they STAY on the ground waiting for something else to happen, and when it does you act surprised...😮
I was thinking the sameeee thing haha
Very good movie!
damn it really freaked me out on the stairs... 😨😨😨😨
🎯🎯🎯 excellent wonderful action and horror
Very different and very scary movie and I m scared too 😰
Interresting movie overall. Makes one wonder what drove each other, the psychiatric case, or the supernatural encounter ?
short film but nice ,,, wish it could be longer like a full movie length.....
Very nice movie.
I was SO surprised at how scary this movie is.....and I was really disappointed when it ended!!! Great metaphor for a life trapped in addiction. The plants and the woman that were trying to kill her was heroin.....
You get it all wrong. It is nothing about addiction at all. It is about domestic violence.
I love Aussie movies, I hope also this one is good.
It's on!!!
