Gray Matter

Really well made short. Based on Stephen Kings short story, this is a great adaption. Terrific production value. Larry Fessenden is always welcome in any film does a great job. Overall amazing job.

I organized 5 dollar babies film festivals since 2006, watched nearly 140 different adaptations of short stories written by Stephen King and GRAY MATTER is among my favorites. The production, atmosphere, performances, rhythm and FXs are perfect. It's not easy to sustain that in a short film during it's lenght (30 minutes) but I only noticed the time passed once the credits rolled out.

If you don't watch the time during a film, then it means it's really good, and Gray Matter is.

Red Clark's take on Stephen King's eerie short tale is an effective old school, practical effects driven monster romp. It feels like a love letter to nutso horror films from the 80's, but never falls into kitschy "retro vibe" territory. It's very reminiscent of Stuart Gordon's early work with gooey gore and a fantastic, intense score. It's campy but takes itself and the craft seriously. Highly recommend for anyone with a taste for gooey gore or atmospheric style. Seek it out genre fans.

I was lucky enough to be apart of the Stephen King Rules Dollar Baby Film Festival and I was able to see this film and omg.... this was insane! One of the best dollar baby films I've seen. Amazing job to everyone involved!

I was pleasantly surprised at how well this short film was. It's engaging, it's terrifying, and it's a lot of fun. The atmosphere was perfectly woven to draw you into the film as well the acting being superb! I really enjoyed the cinematography and the creature effects were top notch especially for a short film. I highly recommend this to any horror fan!
