    I love these horror movies that are not the scary type, but the "makes you get the chills" type. There's a tiny but important difference between: one is only made of jumpscares, futiles stuff to make you scream; the other one makes you FEEL. Feeling is an important point horror movies' been missing these days. Nice work! I always look forward to this channel and I'm cheering on Rob from now on!

      I agree! I saw the short film “Slut” & I freaking loved it!!! I saw it randomly a long while back. I really dug it. Last night I legit felt like I hit the jackpot. I randomly saw the short film again in my recommended, & it looked familiar, so I watched it again...& of course remembered it. Then saw there was an entire channel!

      Jumpscares are a breach of trust between the director and the viewers, when they use the jumpscare they rape the audience's mind, it should be outlawed.

    Someone said this already, but you look at 2:17 and 3:01, you can see the same guy conveniently sidestepping onto the train after she boards and walking behind her as soon as she crosses the street. That body language screams ‘stalker’ because he’s looking all the time in her direction.
    Psychological horror is right, as in you need to watch this again to notice those details. I would’ve been scared if I found out someone had taken a picture of my sleeping like that.

    • @Xylarxcode
      @Xylarxcode Před 4 lety +38

      Or... you know, just pay attention the first time. It's not that subtle. The thing about almost all short movies is that all the details matter. They don't have as much time as actual movies to tell the story, so they have to cram all details that connect all the dots of the story into a shorter timespan, making them much more obvious for the audience to see.
      Especially in a horror movie, when you're actively looking for anything out of the ordinary or creepy. With a horror movie, the trick is not to look at the main character, but what goes on around the main character. Horror movies love to slip details into the background and people often miss them the first time around, because they have a habit of looking at the main character or whatever the main focus of the camera is, rather then what is going on in the background. In this particular movie, it was actually pretty obvious. To me, at least but to be fair, I watch and study a lot of movies (as a hobby, not professionally), so I tend to notice those things.

    • @justin2308

I think the moral is no matter how much you seclude yourself, you can always be a magnet for creepy stalkers.

I am always situationally aware of my surroundings in either urban or wilderness environments. AND I WOULD NEVER CAMP ALONE unless I had to!!! OK, maybe in my back yard with my 10 year old daughter. a few times I have even set up low trip fishing line a few feet in front of my tent entrance with a bell or can attached discretely and camoflauged at the ends. I don't like surprises and I don't want to kill an innocent person either. You are not chicken, its just common sense. I can attest that some of the craziest, creepiest people I have ever run in to occurred in the middle of nowhere.

    For me, this was more psychological horror than anything else, mainly because throughout the film I was waiting for the terror to become apparent. Each time the scene changed, I was like, "Ah, here it is. She's going to be attacked by wolves or bears or something in the night." I mean, such a flimsy looking tent, haha. It wasn't until she came out of the chemist with the photographs in hand that I suspected the real horror. I did see the creepy stalker guys in the city, at the station and especially the one that seemed to suddenly and quickly duck out of the shot at the crossing. But that was, as others have said, perhaps a little too subtle. I would never go into the wild on my own like that, so for her to do that was super brave (or idiotic!) and I kept thinking how well she knew to take care of herself. But, what if...?

      @chrisrudolf9839 Před 5 lety +25

      I wholeheartedly agree on this. The movie was beautifully and professionally shot, but the shocking element was presented too late and to inefficiently. Of course we were expecting someone or something stalking her simply because this was labeled as horror, but the signs that there actually could be someone were too subtle. If the intended genre of the movie wasn't stated, the first ten minutes could easily be mistaken for a really longwinded camping holiday advertisement. Her discovering those special pictures on her camera could have been MUCH more effective if it happened while she was still out there camping alone, not during the comparatively safe train ride back.

    A guy was stalking her on the train station, and also on the street, in the beginning of the film. I always keep an eye on the people around me.
    If he was able to take photos of her in the tent, I am thinking he knows her sleeping habits (deep sleeper etc), this means he could be breaking into her house and watching her sleep. The real horror is that no one will believe her story, she would be completely at the mercy of her stalker.

    First few minutes you could see that she was being watched/followed (briefly) subway and the intersection stood out then when she actually decided to go camping -which btw seems too risky to enjoy such an adventure in todays world, I suspected something would be in the pictures. This short film was very well done, the actor played her part well, the editing was great and I like how the music progressed. Her realization that someone was in the tent with her while she slept was a great way to end it. My compliments on the actor, her facial expressions and how she looked off camera made it all too believable!

    It is interesting to see what caused her to acquire the camera in the first place. At the 5:00 mark, she receives very slow, unresponsive service from the cashier. The time she spends waiting for the cashier to turn around and ring her up causes her to notice the camera and purchase it. The purchase of the camera creates the whole effect of the movie.

    The lack of "horror" until the end is what made it so scary. Not to mention the "based on true events" factor- that works everytime! What a few comments call "boring" I saw as necessary build-up. They're the types to fast-forward through all the talking scenes in a Hitchcock film. Lol.
    I liked the story's layout. There's the initial wondering, waiting, "Is THIS the moment?" "No THIS is it." ...more wondering. Finding yourself observing every minute detail & seemingly insignificant character. Then, nothing but peacful imagery lulling you into a sense of false security until... SOK! POW! KABLAM! THE END!

    She had no idea she was being followed and what the true purpose of them following her was - I mean, why didn't they hurt her? What they wanted? Are they still following?
    She is going to be scared forever, and that's the true horror, you thinking you are safe (the 10 previous minutes) to then having your life messed up like that.
