short horror film
This is the kind of horror movie I love : clever, with a real atmosphere, and most of all, imaginative. I was looking for this type of horror short in RUclips for a long time... Thanks !
it is a real story?
I not only enjoy Zachary 's work. I also love his hair.
I M Not Only...Thats The Correct Way To Say It...Not..I Not Only...
Oh I love his hair too
@@NinaRenateBertelsen-rv2zyactually it's "I'm"...
He is so underrated
I'm sure he will blow up in future
Here before millions ❤️
Really well done buildup. Good work making the portrait genuinely creepy, as well.
*The Picture of Dorian Gray* meets *The Ring*
This would have made a great opening for an X-Files episode.
@cinemug, who painted the actual portraits? They're incredible.
Such a professionally shot, written, and acted short. First time coming across your work, and i am about to binge everything. Like your protagonist, i just couldn't look away. Thank you.
Why would you buy a painting that has you in it and not be creeped out. I would’ve brought something else from the yard sale. As for the ending I saw it coming those are the type of horror that freaks me out where people are trapped in paintings or mirrors or television sets especially paintings. I always have to turn away a little. I can take characters getting sliced by chainsaws or Jason using his machete and chopping someone up into pieces or that jigsaw guy from the saw films using his gadgets on victims or even the brutally of the hostel films. But for some reason I have to look away just a little cause do have to see it when characters wind up trapped in things like paintings or mirrors. But I truly enjoyed the portrait it will definitely be one of my all time short horror RUclips films. Let’s have a sequel maybe about the origins where did this thing come from. Who or what created it. And why did the painting already have this guys face on it when he brought it. Job very well done great horror
I would definitely want to continue with this story one day, and the short would act as the opening to the full movie
@@Cinemug:: YES PLEASE!! In the nicest way possible, HURRY 😊
this is SO amazing, keep up the good work dude!!
Excellent! I’m an old school horror guy, and this would have been a great Night Gallery episode! Well done!
Oh wow! Ok!!! This was GOOOOOOOD! Excellent EVERYTHING!
Whoaaaa… that had the spookiest ending I’ve seen in a really long time! Traditional length horror films can’t even do that 😮. Great job, I’m so scared now lol
Love this. Great atmosphere and beyond creepy!
I really love your works, man. So cool
True horror, no frills, original, creepy, gave me the hebee jebees!😲
Very well acted the constant staring eyes red really creepy af
This gives me goosebumps. I love it! 🤎
Just came across your channel and I really like it. I also like how the same person is the main character in all the films I've watched so far. Its like you die but then you resurrect to go through something else. 😊
Keep up the great work!
Excellent!! I wanted to look away but I couldn’t. Keep up the great work. I am glad I watched this during the day.
Brilliant!
Ive just subscribed 😊
Dam! That’s Creepy! Well done 😱😱😱👻👻👻😱😱😱
Awesome shorts horrors! Respect!
That was great from the beggining till the end. I truly enjoyed this one!!!
Excellent short film man you definitely know how to make horror, looking forward to watch more.
the bass music was eerie and awesome
Die Atmosphäre am Anfang schon ist so gut gemacht. Ich weiß nicht warum, aber solche Meisterwerke ansehen, stoned, nachts um halb drei, mit dem handy in der Hand, ist zu einer me time geworden die ich liebe
What a great channel, I hope you keep doing good movies
Watched it twice. Damnn this was the best short horror movie on youtube! 🔥
I first thought he would become a painting trapped there while that guy will continue to live instead of him, interesting anyway!
Creepy! But really awesome. Reminds me of the Dorian Grey story👏👏👏❤
This was great🙌🏼
that was dope
Oh you know he’s go to become famous and start making he’s own movies
Geez, that's creepy.
..good stuff! ..love the new twist on 'The Picture of Dorian Gray'.. Oscar Wilde would approve 🙂
that ending made me jump out of my skin, something about hollow eyes and unnaturally open mouths like that absolutely terrify me! thanks for nearly giving me a heart attack, this was so much better than any horror movie i’ve watched this year
He's Evil Twin
On The Potrait Is The Same Dude...Its Doing The Same Thing That He's Doing
we are how we project ourselves...
Dude you make some AWESOME horror vids... Can you make one where the monster gets you and your Converse sneakers are left behind...
LOL
VERY VERY GOOD. LOVED IT. SEE YOU WITH A GREAT FUTURE IN HRROR.
So you know about Dorian Gray, The Signalman, Munch... cool! :)
Wicked-Cool!!! Five stars!!!*****
1:25 Is that hat and bag an easter egg to Indiana Jones ???
It’s actually an easter egg for a future project I’ve been working on 😅
@@Cinemug looking forward to it, you are doing some really neat work
Great Halloween treat. 😱👹🎃
well made. This has legs
❤❤❤❤
And i must really to be very Honest 😢😮. from all horror short movies i saw here or Elsewhere??-- THE PORTRAIT IT AND WAS THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN😂😢😢🎉😮😮😮❤❤❤❤😢NICE GREETINGS FROM GERMANY 🇩🇪 🇩🇪 🇩🇪 🇩🇪 SONJA ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 🎉🎉😂❤😢😢😢😮😅
I didn't understand anything can someone explain me what happened
Pretty sure he was becoming what was shown in the painting or it was mimicking him but idk
Dude, sorry for the late response! I didn’t see it until now
So basically the painting is alive in some capacity, and it mimics its victims to gain their attention. Then it warps their victim’s bodies similar to the painting’s true form. In a sense, the painting isn’t the portrait, but instead their victim becomes a portrait of the painting
@@Cinemug Very nice job and very scary i hope in a sequel
Renew....version Dorian Grey....
A different take on Dorian Gray. Not bad
eek 🐭
yall need some mo actors
The first one to watch it🎉
Make one called caseoh tries to eat kais forhead and since there both INFINITLY big when he tries eat it he gets masd cause he cant so he tries eating more of it for 10 years and edventuly a black holes appears behind both them and the black holes name is: caseohs dad DAD DAD DADA DADDAADDADDDADAAAA And he eats everyone
Very bad film
