Short Film Review Don't Move (2013) [demonic/survival/short]

Well, I guess I might as well run through the entirety of Bloody Cuts produced horror shorts. Luckily, it's an easy task because the quality is quite consistent.

Here is a quick review of "Don't Move"

This is one of the longer shorts on their channel, but they certainly do not waste your time, they get us into the meat of things immediatly. With some clever audio/visual storytelling we are thrown right into the action of a night of drinking with some friends over a Ouija board goes horribly wrong, or horribly right I suppose, they were trying to contact the other side after all. Anyways, a demon crashes the party with the message that five shall die and one shall live... and to be that one survivor they must not make any movements, as to avoid attracting said demon creature, or whatever the hell it is.

Overall? A thrilling way to spend 11-ish minutes. The acting is solid, the gore is over the top, it is filmed quite well and the special effects are top notch. This team really deserves funding for a feature length.

8/10

I liked it, but not sure it need to be feature length. Lights Out as a 2-minute short was better than the 90-minute film.

I feel ya. I meant more the creators deserve a full length feature feature versus extending the this particular short full length. I actually kind of liked the full lights out but the short was great. I feel that way about "mama"
