Mike Pecci and his team really did a phenomenal job in conveying an unseen horror behind closed doors. Discovering Pecci through his other short film "12KM" I have fallen in love with the story telling and pacing of his work.
The use of warm and cool tones throughout this short film is what really caught my eye, directing the viewer's attention to what needs to be seen and highlighting what might seem as just ordinary, but really is very important. The color theory mixed with the anxiety inducing ambient music is what really drives home the unseen horror.
The actors in this were amazing!! In such a short amount of time we as the audience get to see such a wide range of emotions, especially from Maggie, who played the baby sitter- the close up shots of her face were just fantastic!
For anyone with a little bit of time who wants something very Lovecraftian, this is the short film for you.
