The moral of the story is to give a stranger who shows up out of nowhere in the middle of nowhere a life altering piece of iron and turn your back on them because... smart.
Careful with that kind of thinking. It's the kind of thing that gets someone a long prison sentence because someone pulled into in his driveway and "I just assumed".....It comes from watching too much Fox News or too much RUclips.
I think she has a Jennifer Lawrence vibe specifically her voice and movement/mannerisms but with more dangerous predatory sex appeal. 👍 Great job to everyone and you should be proud.
Again, I maintain that a complete story doesn't take 3 hrs. This is really a good movie with potential for a sequel. Are they shape-shifters, are they soul stealers, who steal souls, not blood. Anyway, great job. You all deserve a million++views.
Well, clearly, evidently in the film, a body stealer - foremost. (Singular since we cannot presume there are others within any number of miles, or light years. We only witness evidence of a singular entity.) And as for not stealing blood (as you alluded), before the body swap with him after she had knocked him out, her face (its face, the one worn after being stolen from the missing woman on the news) was saturated/caked with blood. That isn't clear as to why. Unlike another short, not eating the victim's flesh, but switching into it. And if she drank his blood like vampires, then how could she then switch into the blood depleted vessel/body? I wonder what the intention was with the blood depicted on her/its face. And finally, as for soul stealing, when it showed up and spoke to his wife, it used the word "honey" which she noticed was odd/unusual, which indicates another way that the person standing at the door is not him. Since we only speculate about connection and differentiation with mind, soul, spirit, etc., it would appear that the creature has hijacked his biological form but is thinking and communicating as itself, while trying to act and behave convincingly as the owner of the body would have if they were still alive and in the body. So we can't know if his soul has departed. There's no evidence depicted that his soul or spirit or mind is battling inside with the occupier. Maybe it consumes the soul of the victims, with a chaser of a half pint of blood. Maybe that's what you meant by "soul stealer"? Not sure why this is labeled a "thriller" because it's sci-fi. Maybe sci-fi/thriller or sci-fi/mystery.
P.S. if shape shifter, then it would have adopted his form and wouldn't have carried the physical injury from when he'd been hit with the tire iron. That is just then something to have to explain to others and such things would be optimally avoided. If a creature could shape-shift, then it begs the question "why would it copy the injury instead of the body as it was at first encounter?".
In my opinion,the woman who approached him in the dessert,is a kind of alien entity.She killed him and somehow transformed herself to look like him and then went to find his girlfriend at their home.
At the beginning when the news is playing they mention a young woman was missing. I'm assuming that this entity did the same to that woman and stole her body, then showed up and did the same to the guy in the car. They assume the bodies of their victims and keep killing.
The male's acting was great because he acted completely natural , especially with the PEACE !! The blonde woman Shape shifting serial killer was great as well very charismatic !! Please make a part 2.This was great and i'm subbing and going to check out your other films now 💜
I can't remember the last time I watched something that made me want to see a part 2 - or better still, a mini series that explores where it goes next and provides some background. I really hope it happens. Amazing work by all involved.
Hopefully one day. I’ve got 2 more horror films in the pipeline. With all of the comments about a sequel, maybe it’s something I’ll have to explore. Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m glad I didn’t read the comments first since many are spoilers. Really enjoyed the pace and storyline. Setting in the desert adds to that isolation creepy vibe. Actors good. When it ended I smiled. Nice work all.
It's was one thing that s grown man can't change a flat. But when she picked him up by the throat with his legs swinging in the breeze. I know something was up. She's not human. 😱👹😲 Loved it!!!
The acting, the cinematography, the direction & overall look of film is just great. Would like to see such more stuff from you. It was very great to watch such a impactful short film. Love from india 🇮🇳
Working on it! Mamu will release in October after its final festival. Currently, editing my next horror short, Parasomnia. You can check out my Instagram to get a sneak peek. 😉
The score gave me John Carpenter vibes for sure. Loved the concept of alien/shapeshifter lore. This could easily be adapted into a great series or film. The cinematography was great, as was the editing. The fight was very well done. The actors were also a great fit for the delivery of the story. All around really good.
Ok, at first I kinda felt this was going the way of the reverse cliche where "man thinks woman can't be serial killer but she is", but I did NOT see that plot twist coming! Nice, VERY nice!
So, a fully capable man who can’t swap out a flat tire? That was largely unheard of when I grew up. What has happened to people who seem so clueless even with simple tasks?
Thank you! Yeah, no problem. We shot with the Amira and a few vintage Cooke lenses (at least I believe those were the lenses). I’d need to double check with the D.P.
So, what is that thing?...because isn't a human being...is something else. Definetly you need to do a 2nd part to give a close up and clarify what is that shape shifting creature, how it really looks. Good film!
That was outstanding! I love "shape-shifters" they're so versatile. . . ❤ Very nicely done beautifully filmed and the clever word play was entertaining.
@@skanesfilms - Did you write this? Very good! Usually the victim becomes its/the/a perpetrator; but here´s something different; the perpetrator "becomes" its victim, and that´s interesting surprise.. Also as a parasite moving from one host to another, a serial killer which is is difficult traced...
No full movie. Please! That's why we love Alter. Although some great full features have been made from Alter Shorts . . . "Piggy" and "Smile" to name a couple.
This was an awesome short film 🎥 Nice job. The desert 🏜️ made it even more scary...brings an apocalyptic death feeling to the table. I'd love to see a sequel.
I already mentioned this in another’s comment, but this was fucking fantastic. Great job to everyone involved. Loved the shapeshifter or changeling. Not sure which is more accurate. I’m not affiliated with Alter in any way, shape or form either, but I would love to see this on their channel.
@@skanesfilms Alsoo absolutely agree, This is a masterpiece that deserves more Attention and support , Loooved everything , from the incredible nice cinematic, the Acting *Chefs kiss*, The Build in Humor^^- to the building up of the story/plot, loved that little detail in the beginning where The Tv News mentions the Murder of a woman(caitlyn) wich i guess was the shapeshifters victim before him bc it introduced its self as kate, understandable that it has to find a new target whos Death they can hide bc Caitlyn was known to be murderd, aaaah its just so goood and makes one really edged about the ongoing of the story

The fact that a grown man in 2023 doesn't know how to change a flat tire only adds to the realism of this short movie! lol
the fact that you believe everything you see in movies would probably worry me more than a man who doesn’t know how to change a tire

This film owes everything to the performance of the Caitlyn character and the actress that played her.
Agreed! She did a fantastic job! It was pleasure working with her and crafting her character.
I think she has a Jennifer Lawrence vibe specifically her voice and movement/mannerisms but with more dangerous predatory sex appeal. 👍 Great job to everyone and you should be proud.
@RPRosen-ki2fk I fully concur with your assessment, and still marvel at the splendid shape of her trousers.
Lesson for today kids?
LEARN TO CHANGE YOUR OWN TIRES !
a lot of cars today dont come with spares, just an air pump with goo inside to seal it while it inflates. lame.

This deserves way more attention,it’s very well done and didn’t over explain the lore. Great work

Great acting by both and an unpredictable ending. I give it 7/10
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback!
Watched the movie, but it felt like unraveling quantum physics while blindfolded. If anyone understands, please send a compass for this lost soul.
It looks like serial killer who is able to acquire the appearance of the person he (she? ) killed 🤔
Nothing that I can say that has not been said already. Great short.
The acting, the cinematography, the direction & overall look of film is just great. Would like to see such more stuff from you. It was very great to watch such a impactful short film. Love from india 🇮🇳

Skinwalkers.
Wow,spot on about John Carpenter !
How long have you been with that woman?
After reading the comments, i devised my own interpretation and now im satisfied lol great movie
no ghost..not horror
Wish this was longer !!! Excellent short!
For me, the real horror would begin after the shapeshifter entered the house. The story so far was ok but not really the expected horror.
Maybe that’s where I’ll begin the sequel… or feature… one day!
Wow😮 amazingly good storyline!!! Never seen the shape-shifter coming!!! Hope to see more content from you!!!❤
Thank you so much! Yes, definitely more to come!
No one ever does...
Interesting short film. Some good lessons here. Don’t talk to strangers in the desert and know how to change a flat.
Ok, at first I kinda felt this was going the way of the reverse cliche where "man thinks woman can't be serial killer but she is", but I did NOT see that plot twist coming! Nice, VERY nice!
Thank you! 😊
He looks like premature Ryan Renolds

loved the plot twist, well done to everyone involved.
