Red Rose (2013)
Deserves to be seen
Short films are a tricky world to navigate. Sometimes they're too long, sometimes they're too short. In this case, I'm glad that the director chose to do it as a short because the plot has been done once or twice as feature films. See Mischief Night, for instance. I'm happy to say that Red Rose stands on its own as one of the better short films I've seen this year. The cast is... to die for... and the circumstances surrounding the young woman played by Addy Miller adds an extra level of emotion and suspense to the story. It's a mix of classic horror actors, the current crop of stars, and awesome up and comers. Everything is accurately timed and this is really just a very solid short film. I hope it's sent off to more festivals because it deserves to be seen by a bigger audience.
Scary Story Slumber Party (2017)
Scary Story Slumber Party is a great anthology.
I picked this up at an event his past weekend and gave it a watch right away. At first I was a little iffy about a film called "Scary Story Slumber Party," but hey films like "Slumber Party Massacre III" have been quite interesting! After watching the film, I was actually very happy with it. Yeah, some shorts were a little better than others, and some performances were better than others. But it really is put together well and a solid effort, I got exactly what I expected it to be. I would definitely recommend it to people who enjoy anthologies like The Collective series and III Slices of Life. This is another good addition to that subgenre of film making.
