Lawrence Paul - you're definitely right about this comment section being a 'dusty' kind of place... Doesn't get many visits. It could get very lonely if you stayed too long, lol! Sorry to have missed you new commenters - only by a week according to your comments. ❤️👋🏽Peace to all! ✌🏽️💙
@@cindylefebvre9412 thanks for joining me, 😀 I felt so lonely.
Amazing work! Perfect cinematography, very well paced, and great suspense! You deserve more views!
juicified83 Glad you enjoyed! Yes, more views would be AMAZING.
Oh man, that was GOOD. A solid piece of horror, I had chills all over when the end credits showed up. This is exactly how I pictured werewolves - somewhat scared or misunderstood monsters with no control over their powers, not prettified. Again, great job!
Fanta Sea We're glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
This is the short I measure all horror against. This was brilliant. Even beats 99% of the trash that hits theaters.
paid for your comment or a relative?
@@KarmicSalt I thought this movie was fantastic and not paid or a relative ;)
That was so good! The little girl was an awesome actress and the wolf was perfectly done. Like the fact that it barely showed the monster...eeriest effect 4 sure!
Thanks for watching!
@@luna8543 thanks for making it!!!
I have been looking for a good short horror film on CZcams for a bit now. And this one, is the best. The acting is great, the ending has a very cool twist to it, the cinematography is GREAT, I like the sound effects and music, etc. etc.. I could keep going on. This is very good short film. It deserves all of the awards it's gotten and more. I agree with Jim Moriarty, this should be made into a full-length film or TV series. 10/10.
I also like that they hinted (on purpose or on accident, I don't know) how it would end a little bit by showing that little part of the cartoon on the TV that the man turned off at 3:13
It’s 2022 hello! And I keep coming back to this one, a classic!.
Wow, I don't even know where to begin. That was fabulously done. At first, I was mistaken and believed that the man killing the family was the one who had made all those people disappear. Then I thought the family was responsible and were just a bunch of psychos who killed together. The ending was a huge twist and I was pleasantly surprised by it. Bravo!
xxJESTACY Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it.
Always hold this in high acclaim and reccomend it to my friends! Timeless.
I am so surprised at how good this is, especially given the normal crap on CZcams. Loved it.
I got the hint that she was a werewolf, almost as soon as she started acting strange when she bit that guy and I don't think I've ever changed my opinion of the "I hope they survive" character so fast in my life
indecentthinking Thanks for watching ;)
Love how I thought that the cowboy was the villain right up until the end when we found out he was really doing a service.
I know, quite a twist!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
I've seen this one a few times, but had to go back and watch it again. Seriously, the cinematography in this is as good as it gets. Truly beautiful work. Loved the concept and the acting was superb. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching!
+Luna Beautiful work!
ɷɷɷɷ I Haveee Watchedd This Movie Leakedddd Versionn Hereeee : - t.co/EQMyZQlo5e
Amazing! Would really love to see this as a full length film, it would definitely be very popular in the industry!
Emily Goins Thanks for watching!
No problem! It's great!
How does this only have 99,000 views? It deserves so much more.
JoeTheAwesome579 We agree! Thanks for watching :)
One of the best short films I have ever seen! AMAZING WORK!
Caleb Chamberlain Thanks for watching!
I love the little hint you dropped with the cartoon.
***** ;)
Amazing actors, perfectly filmed, awesome plot, wonderful features, THIS FILM COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER!!
MegaMotions2265 Thanks for the awesome comment! Glad you liked it.
Third horror short I have watched in the last 30 minutes and this was the best one by far. It is a rare thing to have a twist that is not too predictable (my issue with the other two films) and to have the film look good and be well-acted as well. I enjoyed this and I thank you for your efforts.
SweetZombiJesus Thanks for watching :)
Scary as hell w/out being gross or overtly violent. Sound & music added to this tremendously. Definitely a filmmaker to watch for!
Excellent short film. Story, photography, sound, acting... loved everything.
i hope you won some awards for this one. excellent twist perfectly executed. bravo.
+Leah Hoon Yes, a couple of best horror short awards! Thanks for watching.
Excellent short! Good acting by the young girl
Thanks for watching!
Got us flinching when the girl gets grabbed by the killer! This was hands down one hell of a film! We just featured it on SMO(Scariest Movies Online)
SMO - Thanks!
Make a fucking tv show or full-length movie, because you have single-handedly made werewolves scary again.
Jim Moriarty thanks for watching!
After twilight, I'd lost hope on werewolves and vampires. Please make a vampire film in which there's a vampire, an ugly vampire.
Ali Irfan
Nah, no need for ugly. Pretty vampires can be scary, too. Just make them all violent sociopaths, and you're good. Don't paint them as "tragic," show how inhuman they can be while still looking human, and absolutely under no circumstances can your human protagonist fall in love with one.
And if you wanna have at least one "good" vampire, some tips:
- avoid making them seem more human than the other vamps. "Good" doesn't necessarily equal human-like behavior. If your bad vamps act inhuman, then chances are your good vamps will, too.
- avoid making a vampire that mopes a lot. Mopy vamps wouldn't live very long, and they're also super annoying.
- No human/vampire romance. At all. Fun fact: vampires, in most stories, have no heartbeat at all. That makes them literally walking corpses fueled by blood. Does that sound like something your Average Female Character would wanna fuck? If your answer is no, good job! You've created a character that's not a necrophiliac. If your answer is yes, either a) show how fucked up that is in your story, or b) consider changing your protagonist.
Jim Moriarty Well, I guess Kristen Stewart won't be in that movie. I actually think that vampires who are scaly are cooler than 'sexy' ones like Dracula.
Ali Irfan
After the debacle that was the Twilight franchise, I don't see Stewart wanting to be in a vampire movie for a long time. You think the Twilight movies were bad for us? She had to be in them.
Film riot
I watched it first with volume off.... the story is clear and concise. It kept my attention all the way to the end. Very well done.
James Wagner great compliment! thanks for watching :)
What a twist!!! Thank god Film Riot sent me here!
Matthew K. Thanks for watching!
Exceedingly well done, beautifully shot with some nice Hitchcockian twists as well as great actors.
MrBracey100 Thanks for watching!
My pleasure.
Yup, this was AMAZING!! Tense, subtle, brilliantly directed & shot
10/10
Apollo B. Thanks for watching!
Luna The pleasure was all mine :)
That was awesome!!! Once I saw the moon and the girl looked at that guys body, I knew.
ButterflyofOceans Thanks for watching!
I thought something wasn't quite right when I saw him holding that cross, but man, I didn't expect that ending. Great film.
Madlord DeX Thanks!
Oh my goodness! What a horrific master piece. Amazed.
Rean Combrinck Glad you enjoyed!
Did not expect the ending at all, very good job!
***** Thank you!
😰 Luna? Wow, amazing.

This is my favorite horror short film so far.... And I've watched a lotttttt lolz! GREAT JOB ;)
WOULD LOVEEEEEE TO SEE MORE.....
+Bella Ann Thanks for watching!
Well done!
The cowboy (werewolf hunter? Priest?) would give Anton Chigurh a run for his money!
Thanks for watching!
Wow that ending,,,,,, priceless!!! Good job!!!!
curly girl Thanks for watching!
Wow! That was phenomenal on every level. Superb work, I loved every second of it!
Great work! The camera work, lighting, suspense, and of course the big twist at the end--excellent job!
Rushmore Thanks for watching!
Very nice short horror movie.. good twists!
Robert Mark Bram Thanks for watching!
Loved it and despite the title I really didn't see that ending coming!
Quite some little hints though, like for example the cartoon on TV :)
The police woman sealed her own fate. did not see that coming.
Loved this short..
Arman Eghani Thanks for watching!
holy moly my heart is pounding like crazy that was absolutely spectacular
Film Riot sent me here, and I am so glad they did. Very well done
thank you!
Great short! Had everything going for it.
Giant Iron Claw thanks!
From one short horror film maker to another nice job. LUNA
Homenutt thanks!
Great in cinematography . Best bgm . Better in color grade . Looks stunning !
Eshwar Attiappan thank you!
Wow... this was awesome!
For starters the story is such an interesting twist to it all. At first you think it's all a serial killer, but it turns out he was a hunter working to kill werewolves! Feel sorry for that cop though.
Another good part were the props and effects. I don't know how the fuck you got an actual police car, but nice job to it. And having the family settled out in the desert where they were isolated was smart. Not to mention all the parts of the house and the creepy atmosphere. It was well done.
And the part that really suffers in a lot of films was the acting. But not here, it was actually well done. Especially when the girl was transforming, she really did seem like she was being possessed or something.
I give it 10/10!
Glad you liked! Thank you for watching! :)
Jason Alcatraz You can actually rent police like cars. They are fake cop cars but you can rent them for like $300+ a day.
Or if you live in a smaller city and you are shooting a short film you can ask your police department if you can have their car in the film. Of course you can edit out the city name or see about doing a cheap magnetic decal over the police info on the side. Either way you can get a real vehicle in the shoot to make it as realistic as possible.
Jason Alcatraz thank u so much for the spoiler
Same
Wow phenominal actress was able to portray a errewolve transformation better thn most these days only part i didnt get is whn she kinda levitated up which had nothing to do with beig a werewolf but aside from tht it was brilliant
Dylan G Vlogs Yes! Daniela Leon is a great actor! Thanks for watching!
And thanks for the name of the actress!!!!
This is wht we need in horror movies again not transformations including sparkles and smiles
Beautifully done. Imagery, acting, lighting...everything, wonderful. Good show!
Priscilla Filosofia Glad you liked. Thank you for watching!
Amazing. What camera did you use if I might ask?
Priscilla Filosofia Arri Alexa
Marvelous work, one of the best short films I have ever seen.
Glad you enjoyed!
The foreshadowment at 3:11 is wonderful. Pretty creepy too... Nice work!
2012DarkForce Thanks for watching!
The lighting, the camera angles, the acting, the story is just so perfect!

This is super good! You should turn this into a short film series.
Shawn Atwood thanks for watching!

Kitty Saurus Rex Glad you liked! Thanks for watching!
Well done Luna, very well done!
Thanks for watching!
Im stil watching now great movie thank's for upload💖
Me and a friend got to see this at Monsterpalooza back in March. Both of us really enjoyed it and said it was one of our favorites out of the shorts that were shown (our other favorite was Drudge). The audience also seemed to react well to it. Great job to those involved.
MsDarkness1313 Monsterpalooza was fun! Thanks for watching!
Pretty damn well made! I love all the subtle hints to the twist. Also love how you snuck in a certain sound effect from a certain horror movie at the end of a certain noise that a certain person makes at the end of the video.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching :)
This is amazing! Everything was spot on :D
Ive never seen anything like it wow awesome im subscribing!!!! GREAT JOB!!!!
David Dilnot Thanks!
2020 anyone?????
Yes
Thanks for watching!
Who's got talent? You do, yeas you do!!
jack napier Glad you liked. Thanks for watching!
Honestly, if the audio was just the slightest better that could easily be mistaken for a snippet from a feature film
beautiful all together this should be in the millions of views
draco7222 :D thanks for watching!
A very nice piece of work. Thank you.
so the old guy with the gun was trying to kill the werewolf girl's entire family because probably he lost a loved one to creature/girl. of course, the cage in the cellar is where the family puts the girl so she won't hurt anyone while being a werewolf
+JP Andaquig Thanks for watching!
yeah, but that doesn't always work.
The entire Family was wolfs
I love it! :-)
Aldrey Lorenzo Thanks for watching!
Absolutely amazing film and happy to read that you are working on turning it into a feature - there is certainly great potential in that regard. However, this is a brilliant film as it is and in it's own. Love the story, beautiful cinematography and atmosphere!
@Eliau Thanks for watching!
Wow!! I've been watching short horror films but this one just stands out. Great job!!
Bianca Bernal Thanks for watching!
Wow that was really good
Thanks!
Putz!! Que raios de filme macabro é esse galera. E olha q nem sei inglês. Bom
Thanks for watching!
This was absolutely brilliant. Exactly my type of horror short! well shot as well. You should definitely make a movie. Top works!
Sufyan Patel thanks for watching!
What an excellent movie! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
When saw the chains and rope in the basement I thought, maybe roles are reversed? hehe... The stinger when he grabbed her from behind made me SHIT MYSELF!!! Excellent film!! Looked BEAUTIFUL too...
bobcharlotte LOL! Thanks!
Love horror shorts but I'm extremely critical of them. This one was great. At about 8:30 I decided it was underwhelming although it was decent enough to watch until that point. Shortly after though, it turned around. Great job, almost had me fooled. :)
Amber Thut Thanks for watching!
This maybe my favourite short film on CZcams. Guys this is outstanding, so well made and written. I hope to one day reach this level of filmmaking.
+CrossroadPictures Thanks for watching!
Luna No worries. It truly is an amazing film.
One of the best Shorts I've seen in a long time. Quite the plot twist in the end lol
Thanks for watching!
So, the cowboy guy was legit. He was killing a family of dogs.

You did a great job, and I wasn't expecting that twist. Amazing cinematography, acting, sound, and the music at the end was creepy.

That was fucking epic.. seems like a quick flick from a hollywood blockbuster!
Adam Soullier Thanks!

TheEpicCrew2 Thanks for the support! Where was it posted?
The title is a dead giveaway but it was still very good :-)

It wasn't a dead giveaway for me. I never thought to put two and two together! haha lmao. It was fairly slow at first, but I loved it!!
Cassiee Boo Glad you liked! Thank you for watching ;)
You're welcome. I hope you have more in store
You're welcome! Keep em coming you're doing great!
Very well done! Still left some room for twists even when I THOUGHT I had it figured out. Great job.
randy streu thanks for watching!
I think this is just brilliant. I caught on to everything at precisely the perfect time. Thank you so much, it's hard to find a well-made film with an absorbent, carefully thought-out plot. Love it!
+Lily Blekicki Thanks for watching!
More please can I have more lol
this was interesting take on werewolves
liedtoy we're working on it ;) thanks for watching!
Actually, I already saw that coming from the beginning
You know I kinda suspected it, but I also thought it was wishful thinking on my part lol. But I'm actually glad it turned out the way it did
Im impressed by how intelligently this was made. I love the plot and how its introduced. Congrats!
Pacdrin thanks for watching!
Excellent job guys. Fantastic.
