Loved that scene of the medicine container emptying and refilling - very cool. Also the guy getting up in the background as soon as Main Character leaves the room, then him passing by the door later - sOOO creepy!! Great stuff.
I think the meaning is that he’s been giving her meds to keep her under control, chipping away at who she is (like the woman with no face). And then gaslighting her about the computer - making her think the whole thing was a dream or hallucination. And at the end, despite her “unfounded” claims of him cheating, he “still” loves her. It seems like abuse/control to me
Agreed. Well put as I Weary of the destruction of the feminine even in comments today. At least some folks still have insight and compassion.
I think that's the idea. That's how hallucinations feel to the person suffering.
This is heart-breaking. Lots of mental illness in my family. Depression, bipolar, anxiety. Not schizophrenia, but still horrible. Hard for many to understand the hell of insanity if they haven't experienced it.
This is so scary. Who can you trust if you can't trust yourself?
Remember - truth is what crazy people call gaslighting
This means once the psycho medication starts, it never stops, actually any medication. It goes on and on and on like hell.
So this story was about gas lighting. Making her feel crazy when she wasn't
This was great. The gaslighting was very disturbing.
Greetings! I’m Holly. I wrote, directed, produced, funded, and played the main role in this little brain-teaser. You can ask me anything!
I question your statement.
Wow, you WDPFPed the whole thing?? Congratulations!
@@000aleph Yes, I directed, produced, and bilaterally broadcast this little gem that I was a main cast member of. You, yes, as you understand the lingo of the industry, I dpbbc-ed everything.
@@hollyperrin7353 That's a serious feat and something I would never be capable of (and this is now without the slightest sarcasm). What I find less pleasing is the film itself, with a plot that is confusing and ends at a moment where it most certainly shouldn't, because it shuns the responsibility of giving the viewer an actual story instead of just a few intriguing, but vague hints.
Hi holly! I really loved this, as someone who loses their sense of reality due to (inception-esque) loop dreams every night. Thank you!
I liked the music!
Brilliant acting from all especially the main actress so believable and sad story in it both are bigger and better as the main well known actors and actress in America ❤
Did anyone else notice the iv bag in the bedroom? It was full of blood?
Yeah and was tht a cctv on the ceiling in the office ?
Was wondering if anyone Gona mention the iv bag lol
A bit of Twilight Zone mixed with a bit of Alfred Hitchcock. Beware the pills? The significant other? Or her own thoughts and dreams? Nice little brain teaser. Enjoyed.
This is absolutely the most inane script. It makes little sense.
I truly believe shorts are open to interpretation. But I have a difficult time with this one too. The actors/actresses are great tho.
I love short horror films. Love them. And feature length, too, but that’s beside the point. I agree with some people; this one was a little difficult to understand. It was a great film. Just trying to understand what’s happening.
Poor Lady how can Someone Cheat on the Person they Love❤
Crazy🤨
Anyone who’s lived with someone with paranoia schizophrenia would understand how serious this is.
Was the end of it a flashback to an earlier time? That was confusing.
Didn't understand it.
Yeah.. The ending is supposed to bring everything together. I don't get the meaning of the movie.
no did the lead female character
FOLLOW WHO ❤ THRILLER SHORTFILMS❤
So does she have cancer and the medicine making lose her mind
No, I’m sorry. I think you were trying to hard to make this seem “crazy” but way too many holes and then it ended. 😢
Did the meds make her crazy or is she anyway? A 'psychological' thriller but with the backing of big pharma, how novel, they must pleased.
Zero chemitry between the two. Next time choose an actress who isn't so cold.
