Sweet Dreams

I've learned that when a horror short suggests you'll get the best experience by watching in the dark with headphones, it usually means the screen will be almost completely black and there will be a jumpscare. That was the case here, too. I have to admit, though, the jumpscare in this short was handled far more elegantly than in many other films. Unfortunately, the screen was so dark it was nearly impossible to see anything-definitely a downside. I didn't watch in total darkness, but dark enough that I should have been able to make out more. Still, the story is simple, and its execution is quite well done.
