    From what i understand, the main character has a loved one that disappeared, seems to me like his wife and baby, might just be the baby though. Hes completely shut down and has developed delusions, one being that the loved one is in that room. So he sits and waits, im assuming thats his sister on the phone.

    Ok this is seriously well done! I looooooveeeee that you didn't go for the cliche scary creature jumpscare at the end. I could feel the tension through the whole thing. I got literal chills when the baby's crying became distorted, almost like a wailing old woman. It gives me skinwalker vibes. My only issue is that the woman talking on the phone call is hard to understand. I wasn't really able to tell fully what was being said during the conversation. But overall this is so well made! I hope this gets the attention it deserves!

    What was in the room exactly? Was it a figment of his imagination or creatures that he was the only one capable of perceiving?

    • @willevert
      @willevert  3 месяца назад +6

      It was his imagination, but there is no way you could know that by watching the short. I could have been more clear about it.
      The film is really about anxiety and how dwelling in the past will stand in the way of feeling better again. The man's wife and daughter are missing and he is literally staring at the wall and expecting that to do something good. It sounds stupid by design, because anxiety (to me at least) is stupid, it's not anything rational or something I can get rid of just by thinking about it. But when you are anxious, it's also very hard to not focus on the shitty feeling. So this is a very literal expression of how just "staring at the problem" is not going to take you in a good place.
      Then again, you could easily turn this into something supernatural. That was not just my intention though.

    • @taracollins5597
      @taracollins5597 10 дней назад

      I believe it could be interpreted in two ways: 1. The man has lost his wife & baby either because they left him (possibly because he is mentally-unstable and/or dangerous) or the wife decided to leave him, period & he has lost the remainder of his sanity. 2. His wife & baby were actually 'taken' by something Evil.....that truly IS in that room. A demon, perhaps. The room could be the gateway to wherever they....& It went. Either way, its a creepy short-film! But I do wish it was a bit longer.

We try to gather a bunch of small time youtubers, and make a movie together. Each person makes a 10 to 15 minute long short story. You have free reign, as long as it's found footage, and horror. No copywritten music, and appropriate for youtube. We'd love to have u on board

    Because it appears most people are struggling with what I thought was very clear.
    This is about a man who has lost his wife and child. Off camera, them man's wife and child were in the dark room and dissapeared/were taken by something. The man is set up waiting for whatever it was to come back. Mum calls and says that she saw a women and child that may have been the man's as mum believes the wife has run away with the child.
    The man knows. The man waits. The crying in the room starts, and he enters. The door slams.

I guess you could say the story in my head is similar to It follows or Smile only focusing on something in the Peripheral vision. (shrug) You know how sometimes you feel there is just something to a story, but you aren't really sure what it is, because you haven't really got that far yet? I have that feeling.

    Keep doing what your doing. A good mystery to be solved. Great suspense. Now thats a good short film. I got some great ideas for a horror short film if you want some.
