POST MORTEM MARY
/ watchalter - Krátké a kreslené filmy
As a horror fan I can tell you for a FACT, a corpse 'looking alive' is the worst possible thing
No. It is not. As a man who saw his cousin dead in a morgue. I Can say that a dead that look live and sleep is less terrifying than a dead corpse look violently assassinated. If you are a really fan of horror, make a visit a funneral home o morgue. I di it obligated. Nightmare are vivid and inevitable.😯
Cool story bro
The girl's acting is perfect, especially when she is putting the lense cap on the table.
entanglement.
what acting?
Hi Everyone. I am the writer director Joshua Long. If you have any questions or comments I will do my best to answer them. Thank you for watching the film. I am a huge horror nerd and having a platform like ALTER to show these films is essential. Thank you ALTER for showing our little film. Thank you to Screen Queensland for believing in us and giving us the chance to make the film. We want to make this into a feature film!
Is the dead kid replaced the alive one? Or it's just one of the skills that Mary often uses :）
By the way, I genuinely love this film, pls do moreee ~~
No questions but keep creating such films! I loved this film so much..
By all means please do make it a feature. This is excellent in every respect.
I couldn't grasp the overall story. Kindly explain.
Aaas
Saw a lot of pictures about victorian era post mortems and dudeee it’s so scary and interesting at the same time.
Dude! For the feature version i have had to look at thousands of these sad pictures! Dude.... Dude...
Yeah,some of the pictures eeeeesh. No thank you.
People have done strange things in the name of culture
@@EarthenDemon126 you are 100% correct about that!
It's horrible, Absolutely horrible. But fascinating
This literally creeped me out! Specially after when she adjusted her eyeballs
The eyeball gag would get a crazy reaction at film festivals. I have the dead Mary prop in my office. Her eyes move sometimes when i walk passed...
मैं भी youtuber हूं, आप सुन सकते हैं horror stories जो कभी सुनी नहीं होंगी... एक अलग अहसास के साथ...
Yeah the eyeball adjustment had a major "EWWWW!" factor for me.
Great short horror!
@@kimberleyslauenwhite9004 EW David!
Yeah same here, I had to put it on pause and get up and walk around a minute, it was creeping me out too much. The sound as well, ugh. I have this thing about eyes, I get the creeps.
I don’t know how that little girl bent back like that but it was such an intense part! The crunchy neck sound, and squishy eyeball noise, was bananas. The mom telling her that “the most important part is that they look alive” made you think, well what if she actually comes to life? And then we felt helpless when things began to unravel. So Perfect.
Edie Vann played dead Mary. She is a circus performer. Super talented and a wonderful kid. The two Mary's would play UNO between set ups and beat all the adults!
humaninacan that’s incredible! Oh my goodness that is so cute, they had no mercy on you all lol. I have no sympathy for my kids when it comes to uno. Because in the real world sometimes you lose lol. I loved this film and good luck to your whole crew, Cheers!
To me, the dead kid kind of teased the little girl. She has been adjusting her head cause it's been falling frontwards-downwards every time the photo is to be taken. So she sent her head up. far way back. It's like she's mocking saying "is that enough now"
Yeah fr😂
Oh. My. GOD!! That was the most terrifying short I have seen in a long time!!
The short itself was visually beautiful, the music, acting..everything was spot on! Man, you guys NAILED the suspense, honed that to a razor edge! Kudos to all involved!
Too bad I won't be able to sleep for a while now!
Lol. I completely agree
All I can say is oh oh lil girl do not sit in da chair I'm scared and it is daylight
check out the "dollmaker"
Thanks Mate! (writer director here)... The cast and crew will love this comment. I didn't sleep last night actually... knowing the film was about to be released.
@@humaninacan Sorry you did not sleep.. Now you may sleep well and smile knowing your short movie oh oh damn great!!!! (oh sorry).. Please, ANOTHER OTHER ONE FOR ALTER FANS 😈💕
"The most important thing is that they look alive"
The dead girl : *I can do better than only look alive*
Very underrated comment. And also very funny. >w
As of 2020, this is apparently no longer a requirement for winning a presidential election.
Hi, my name is Daniel and I am the producer of this short film, it's incredible reading everyone's comments. It means a lot to me and the team that you've taken the time to watch and comment, we love knowing what you think. For anyone not yet viewed it, remember to turn the lights off and the sound up!!
you should make this a feature film
Hola Daniel.
Excelente trabajo.
Saludos desde México.
Pure gold
This is by far one of THE BEST short horror films i’ve ever seen. Wished it would’ve lasted longer - should be turned into a movie. It’s Extremely professionally made & great acting!!!!
Yeah, and the continuation could be that her mother slowly begins to realize that her daughter isn't the same person as she continues to grow ill, and tries to find a way to get her daughter back before she succumbs to her sickness.
This one was actually kinda creepy I liked it
Have you ever watched screamfest?
@@valeriyaezhova6343 OMG I LOVE THAT CHANNEL.
Nice name that is, mate.
This one needs to be a movie or a franchise. It's that good.
Thanks Eric. I have been working my ass off on turning it into a feature film with the idea of a trilogy. (Josh - writer director)
humaninacan yay! sounds great I can’t wait
It IS a movie.
@@hughjaanus6680 a lonnggggg movie.
@@etaeleifi WHATS IT CALLED AND WHERE CAN I FIND IT
Who subscribed Alter after the DOLL MAKER ? 🥰🙋🏻♂️
Me
There's so good ones, but "Doll Maker" has been the best thus far. Now let me check this one out!
me! doll maker is the best one!!
Me
Yessirr meee
I have always wondered why there wasn't any horror made about post mortem photography era. It is fascinating and disturbing at the same time. Hope this movie can be made into a feature film!
They touch on it a little in the movie "The Others", but it's not "about" it. It's a creepy party of the movie though.
THIS IS IT. The simple but scariest short movie ever I have watched till now. Wow thanks ALTER for that.
wow thanks champion
привет мармеладка
Let's just all agree people back in the days wanted really weird things...
Photography would have been pretty expensive back then
Thus why I like it.
book of the dead - a victorian tradition
They were stupid
@@deathreaper2604 let's not be rude. They're just trying to deal with loss.
Just loved the way how tension was maintained throughout the last minutes of the movie, another great piece of content by Alter!👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks champion! Glad you enjoyed it.
This was excellent. Everything about it. The story, The acting. The casting, the set, the period, the costumes, everything was perfect. I've been watching so many of these shorts and this was by far my favorite!
Scooping the eyeballs with the spoon was the most macbre thing about this to me. Great job!
Jpamslmxkmxzkxnozhzzojzoznsihzzinsizhxzxanzkna
I mean she wasn’t scooping them out but ok
This is my fav section of the film during a screening. I watch the audience squirm. So much fun!
OMG I'm having cataract done in a month's time.not the best for me lolll
I feel bad for this girl. She has to go through this.
Dang! The squishy sound when she tried to open her eyes, creeps me out. Goosebumps when the girl bended her back!!😭
The atmospherics was to die for! Well done! The eeriness and 'not knowing what was coming next' were handled superbly by the director, cast and crew. The sound quality was also faultless.
"dollmaker"
thanks man. I am the director. thats really nice of you to say.
@@ThePitchblue I will check out dollmaker.
@@humaninacan Wow, you're welcome. Hope you're planning more films in the near future. We'll be looking forward to that. Also hope you get the support to fulfill those ideas. Your mastery of the medium demands it! 👍♥️
Who feels fortunate that they discover alter channel?
Awesome collection of horror stuff
I just adore this video, the victorian century also.. Love u ALTER
🖤🖤🖤
So here is my take from the short film.... According to the law of nature one life comes into existence only when another life ceases to exist, that is how nature balances the life cycle... So the fact that a Mary died and another Mary must have come into life was natural... However keeping in mind the Christiam belief of death, a life ceases to exist only after the body is buried followed by the rituals and right after the soul has left the body... But as the young Mary's body was kept unburied for two long weeks it messed up the natural process as per the Christian ideology... And hence when the little girl who is also named 'Mary' is asked to give up her stupid phobia by her mother as they 'make a living out of death', she ends up trading her life with dead mary in an unnatural way... Because we all know that no one can make a living out of death by transgressing the law of nature... Dont know how valid that stands but yeah just felt like sharing ✌
Your interpretation is awesome! Breaking down the macro and the micro of it. Your take on things could give birth to a more fleshed out full story. Just wanted to say brilliant idea, very "cryptic" too 😲💀🙀 it's like the Conservation of Matter with souls. You rock!
@@marcopolo6944 I have to say I am flattered with those big words... Thankyou so much... And also the way you see it I barely feel like anyone would do it... Your compliment indeed is an additional and diverse angle to my interpretation. 👍
I think it has less to do with Christian beliefs and more so the ancient practice with the gold or silver coins. I believe it started with the Greeks (I would fact check that) but essentially the coins were placed in the mouth once the person died so the deceased could pay the ferry driver to the afterlife.
How I see it, when Mary placed the coin in dead Mary’s mouth, it allowed the deceased Mary to travel and “pay her toll” into the living Mary. That’s why the coin is spit up in the end. It’s seen as confirmation of possession as well as the toll being paid.
@@CaptainCaterpillars Oh wow... Thankyou for that interpretation... I will take that, but I dont think I will let go off my interpretation of this short or dismiss it as completely invalid... So yeah 💖
Sonia Rana - The director did say that the ending was open for interpretation in the comments so who really knows. I’m not saying your wrong just pointing out the relevance of the coins since those are a major focus of the director whereas there was no mention or visuals of Christian beliefs. No cross, no bible, no mention of God but those coins are always there.
Edit: I did reach out to the director for clarification so hopefully we can get some answers.
Dare I say one of the top 10 best Alter shorts of all time (in my opinion).
This one was right up my ally creeps wise. Really good. Scary as hell and super original. Loved it! Thanks to all involved, you did a fantastic job. Would love to see this as a movie. Thanks Alter!
wowzers... Thanks man. The cast and crew will love this.
Well done!!!!
can you name the top 10 on your list?The Dollmaker is also good
I stumbled upon the 'Doll Maker' one day.
And now I can't stop watching these horror stories. Love this channel!
This is why I don't like looking
at myself in the mirror... but then again I remember it's just my reflection 😌
C B All fun and games until the reflection makes other grimaces than you...
Great film! Such a creepy thing to subject a child to, helping mom take pics like that. How would her body still be intact after 2 weeks though? Freezing the corpse? I can't imagine having only a picture of your child once they have passed, it's so sad.
The buzzing of flies was the tiny detail that made this film. Props all around for mood, cinematography, script, acting, editing, directing, Foley...superb.
Thank you for the kind words
That was perfect. Major marks to both Marys!
Thank you. They will love this comment. I will pass it on.
@@humaninacan Best regards from me as well; both of them were great in their roles. 👌
In fact, everyone did an amazing job.
@@ericcartman7420 thanks. I will let them know!
This is typical Victorian era photography. 🎥📸⚰️💀🥀
Thanks mate. I hope we can dive deeper into it for a feature.
I don't watch movies on Netflix, because Alter is with me😋
From Denmark 🇩🇰❤
🇩🇰🖤
I’m also currently watching from Denmark ! 🤗🇩🇰
From Charlottenlund
I cancelled my Netflix this month Alter has better short films that is way better than 1 1/2 movie on Netflix😊
@@kenyaRH6086 , that's exactly what I did. The actors in Alter are much better than Hollywood😋😇
my take is that she embraced the death of the other Mary as her own and how this girl too is dead emotionally feeling nothing but a living dead.
This was excellent! From the acting, to the cinematography, music, editing, just a beautiful, captivating piece!!
Even with vintage camera they had a instant printing mechanism that too in client location. Wow.
ha ha na we had a heap of the process in the script. We had the props and the entire thing. But shooting with children meant huge time restrictions. So unfortunately we could not shoot it. The feature will restore this for sure!
@@humaninacan feature????? What feature?? And when is the feature coming out?
@@doubleasworkshop1692 we are currently working on it. Trying to get it up right now. Hopefully a feature will happen but there is no feature yet.
@@humaninacan Best of luck. I would love to see this in theatres or streaming services. This has so much potential to be fully fleshed out into a fantastic creepy periodic horror. Don't let the production turn this into a jumpscare fest
My two favorite genres: historical and horror!!
This has to be the best short film I've watched... Just wanted to add that the lady who plays the grieving pearnt plays her part excellent 👌
Agreed, Kathryn is incredible
Kathryn is a super underrated actor and I am so glad someone noticed her in this!
Damn, eyes glued to the screen and breath held! Altered again...how many times can a subscriber be altered? Let’s keep watching and see😍
I am the writer/director of this short. I just wanted to wish everyone a HAPPY HALLOWEEN. Thank you for watching the film!
Excelente cortometraje. Enhorabuena.
@@_CINEFILA_ thank you!
Very nice short. The eyeball bit made me cringe. Good job!
@@sometimessnarky1642 thanks. I love the eyeball gags
My Great Grandmother used to sit with the dead at her house.People would come to see their loved ones all hours of the day and night.
The short was inspired by my grandmother Mary who was trained at the age of eight to lay out the bodies in the north east of England.
Really good job, you can just imagine being there. The flies flying around so you know the body smells.
Such a good job! I would have had nightmares, I still might tonight.
So creepy I love this! I want this in a full feature it would be a great movie.
Alter you have disturbed my Friday.
Thank you!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
thanks mate. I will pass that onto the cast and crew
humaninacan : where do you usually procure your actors and actresses??
@@milcycat7285 this one was a screen Queensland funded film. So all the actors were Brisbane based. The producer and myself went and searched for them. The film we did after this had a casting agent.
The director and writer Joshua Long works with my dad! My dad told me about this film and thought I'd watch it because I am a bit of a horrorphile. Have to say I wasn't disappointed!
I started following this channel because of the doll maker and I still want a long version of it. Anyway whoever manages to get this channel active is a genius.
Wow wow wow!! I extremely enjoyed this one. ALTER has many good films to offer but every now and then there's is one that really hits the right spot of your own personal taste. This is one of them and for me it's perfect from the first second to the last. ❤
So glad you enjoyed it.
Truly wonderful! I’ve heard and seen some post mortem pictures on the internet but it’s something else that brings such a realistic portrayal of it. I definitely got the chills while watching this.
Thanks for watching it! Glad you enjoyed it!
Dear ALTER,
Thank you for scaring the hell out of me. This video just set a new benchmark in the field of disturbing videos. Loved it!
i will ad that to my resume
Very well done! I appreciate subtle horror like this where it leaves the viewer to fill in the blanks. It's so much more effective that way.
Thank you for watching and glad you connected with it
really impressive in all areas: story line, acting, photography.
This is the creepiest short film I have ever seen till now😱😱 !! Kudos to the team for keeping the eerie environment & keeping me at the edge of my seat . Great work .👍👍👏👏
Thanks so much. I will pass it onto the team. I am super glad you liked it. Have you seen tigers are not afraid? Love that film!
That. Was. Petrifying! Even though I could see where it was headed, it still had me on the edge of my seat with eyes wide! Excellent film!
I absolutely loved this! Should be a full length film
You know it’s a good film when you have to pee but ur too scared to get up and it’s the middle of the day
This scared the shit out of me. Really amazing! Looking forward to other future vids ❤️
Wow, Alter. I watched a fair number of your videos, and this is the first to send a chill down my spine.
super glad you connected with it!
Really well done! Loved the build up and the atmosphere. Great young actors too!
My Take on this : The dead mary was dead for 2 weeks so devil has taken her soul as is now in her body. The alive mary gets possessed by the devil now, and leaves the house coughing. Final Twist: The mother is also a Devil as she was also coughing from start.
and her mother too ? hmm , , , ,
Oh man this is a rad theory!
OK, so caughing(after stinking fart as per conjuring) signifies demonic presence. Is sneezing satanic? May b that's y theists say "God bless u"
@@sujashade3106 yes. The mothers sickness is kind of why she forcing the girl to do the job. But will go further into that if we make a feature
Yes, I was right.. I knew something was wrong with my parents when they forced me to go to the school. But they preferred to believe the otherwise.
It was interesting that the possessed child had the same cough as the mother at the end of the movie. I wonder if an actual transfer did take place. And some believe pictures can capture or steal souls.
I think the town was experiencing some kind of a plague. That's what killed the dead Mary i think
@@crystalDM96 The dead Mary was actually killed by her family’s horse. whether it was because she was riding it or she got to close and it kicked her is unknown. We know it was a horse that killed her as her father said “that horse killed my baby”
@@nightstareternal1592 Ooh! Thanks for telling me and well spotted. I thought she was killed by the plague because after she possesses the other Mary, she coughs - so I thought it was a sign she used to have the plague too
@@crystalDM96 You’re welcome 😊 I think the reason she coughed is because she had the wooden coin piece deep inside her mouth because she spit it out right after she coughed. I do know the mother who was taking the picture is sick. If I would have to guess, she would probably be suffering from Tuberculosis.
@@nightstareternal1592 oh right!! That makes a lot of sense
Literally found this channel two days ago and im addicted. Brilliant shorts you make!
It took me a second to recognise her but I'm pretty sure the actress who plays the role of the mother (the one who coughs) is Melanie Zanetti! I absolutely love her!! I've seen her on Gabriel's Inferno. Absolutely stunning and her acting is to die for! Thanks for bringing her in , Alter💙
That's 100% She's incredible. This was the first time she played a mum and now she's playing the voice of one of the most famous mum's in Australia in the animated show Bluey.
It is Melanie Zanetti! She also is the mother in Bluey! She also did a pretty fun zombie / robot apocalypse flick with Dolph Lundgren called Battle of the Damned! Also Tracks! Love and Monsters!... She is rad!
@@danielschultz211 hey dont you work on bluey?
And didnt you produce Post Mortem Mary?
@@humaninacan hahaha correct!!
Great with the creep factor!!! The little girl is a wonderful actress.
Okay,these young ladies did an excellent job. But also that's messed up,that'swhat she gets for doing what her Momma told her.,body swapped with a ghost? Poor baby🙊😣
Great Short
She shoulda got the shot right the first time. If she'd done better the first time they would have been gone and the family would have had to deal with her.
Morale of the story: Do your very best work always.
The Victorian death photos taken to a new level.
Alter you always deliver.
Well done. This really made me uneasy. That doesn't happen often. Also, I didn't see the end coming.
Costumes and scenery spot on. Keep it up!
I see something terrifying ... DEVELOPING HERE.
Good one 😝😝
Your the best... around! Glad you enjoyed it!
This deserves high rating
This one is actually good 👍 i appreciate the genuinely good pacing, lightning, and sound design. Very professional and i hope to see more like it
thanks mate
Absolutely brilliant!! The story the setting the atmosphere and the acting. The eyeball part made me cringe and when the dead girl smiles that was really spooky! Brilliant!! Well done all
when the eyeball part would play at film festivals it was super fun to watch the audience squirm
Now that had a sinister feel throughout, loved it!!
Now this was scary
Those two child actresses were brilliant and magnificent!!!! Really scary with terrific performances by all.
Uncertainty is the best part in a horror movie and this one was brilliant. Wish it had a longer duration.
The choice of theme is great, it made the whole thing more spooky 👍🏻
Loooooooved it
Alter is the guy who can make people get ALTERed. And I hope that he is going to plan a film or series sooner❤️
🖤thank you for this! The ALTER team is definitely trying to get another feature or series out for you all. We have one film called VILLAINS on Hulu and a really great series called 50 STATES OF FRIGHT on Quibi. If you get a chance, you should check them out.
@@WatchALTER I am going to check for sureee alter😊❤️❤️
@@WatchALTER alter can u please watch my 2 horror short films❤️. I was inspired by you.
Sorry to disillusion you, but MOST of the movies on ALTER are independent shorts made by various filmmakers and submitted to ALTER to be included in thier roster of great other shorts. ALTER HAS INDEED made several films themselves, but mostly full length features(ie: Villains, which I highly recommend!)
*EDIT:* WOOPS! Well, I guess I should have read the other responses first! LOL! But, you get the gist! 😉✌
@@WatchALTER I'm ready for a post mortem Mary series if you are
That was one of the best thus far! I've already watched twice!
keep watching it over and over until we have to open your eyes up with a spoon!... Thanks for the kind words!
GREAT film! Even creepier is the fact this was an actual practice in the late 1800s and 1900s.
The actors are just so amazing.
I am obsessed with the victorian time period (especially memento mori) and horror movies.....Lucky me!!! 2 for the price of nun!!! It was amazing really hope it becomes an actual movie ❤❤
Wow, very well done! Creepy, great professional acting, creepy, hopeless atmosphere, everything is just awesome!
glad it connected with you
Best Short i've seen in a long time. Awesome job.
This is so spot on. Fantastic.
That was terrifying! Thanks Alter! Wow!!
I am glad you connected with our flick!
THANK YOU! I honestly feel like this is the ALTER I found when I was a newbie and fell in love with your channel! Not to say I havent liked your recent films, but this one is just plain old creepy! Not all the bells & whistles! Not overly thought out! Just good old fashioned horror! I KNEW YOU'D BE BACK! 😱☠☻💀👻
I gotta agree with you Kathy. This one is just ... OG DISTURBING.
@@RPRosen-ki2fk 👍 Plus, extra 👍 for Stewie! 😂✌
Thanks so much. I am super happy you connected with our film. I hope we can make a longer version soon!
@@humaninacan that would be awesome! But, what occurred to me after watching it was what an AMAZING series that could be! Every "episode" would find the girl photographing someone new? Oh...that would be must see for me! But, whatever you do, I want to see it! I know that! 😱✌
@@MissTique247 yeah man we are developing that for sure!
Beautifully done! The cinematography, set design, music, audio - and those girls! Great acting! Kudos to all involved! :)
Your Horror short films are always fabulous! Thank you and keep up the good work! 🧛♀️🖤👍
This is the first horror short story that amazed me a lot! Indeed, it even supersede other hollywood horror films in which illogical or doesn't make sense seriously. Post Mortem Mary is very direct and sends the idea to the viewers the possibility of switching spirits which in reality is happening oftentimes through wicca, voodoo and simply in nightmare where you are experiencing sleep paralysis. Two thumbs up alter!!!
It's really amazing you brought this up. I even brought an altar prop to set to kind of have a hint at that aspect. But I decided to keep it more mysterious in the end.
@@humaninacan it just saddened us that most of the time we see a living person with a different spirit already living in his/her body
Truly creepy indeed. Also unpredictably scary too.
Alter's stories are just Incredible!!! Very Nice
Great movie and fantastic acting. The girls were outstanding. This would be brilliantly received as a full feature film.
That was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!
you are!
Thank you for sparing us tired, cheap and ineffective jump scare(s). This was sufficiently spooky.
So glad you enjoyed it
@@danielschultz211 Was pretty good actually. 👌
Original premise, beautifully produced and acted, thoroughly creepy, and genuinely touching and horrifying.
Most of the actors you have are way better than big actors. I really enjoyed this. The young girl played her role so well.
This looks really interesting.
Im going full screen
Tell my mother i love her
What bout Dad😂😂😂
Amazing! I wasn't that scared for quite some time now! It's well made and gave me chills... I would love to see more videos like that
Alter has so many great ones. Thanks for watching our little short. Working on bring more chills soon 💀🖤
This is easily the most terrifying horror film I have ever seen...and I’ve seen quite a few.
It doesn’t rely on cheap jump scares or a lot of gore-just pure existential dread.
SPOILER ALERT:
....
The bit where the girl has to open the other child’s eyes. My God.
Also, the decision to make the corpse only slightly decomposed was a brilliant choice.
It causes the viewer to experience “uncanny valley” anxiety.
It’s dead...but it still looks human enough to make you extremely uncomfortable.
Esse cenário ficou lindo, confesso que ainda estou intrigado com o final🤩
I absolutely loved this. Reminds me of The Woman in Black. I love ghost movies, & especially in that time error.
I even have a couple of passed relatives death portraits.
Excellent job Alter, hope to see more like these.
@420BASSGIRL 420BASSGIRL ☺
@420BASSGIRL 420BASSGIRL I did...I just saw..it auto corrected.😂 God....sorry..😁
Thanks so much. I love the woman in black. I was trying to be more like the changeling but i have a deep love of Italian horror cinema also. Mario Bava, Lucio Fulci and Dario were huge influences on me.
This film should get some awards, it scary creepy heartbreaking and good acting with interesting plot
I mean I know back then kids had to earn their keep, but there's a million other ways for her to do that for her mom without touching and eye gouging a corpse of a girl nearly her age.
