Gray Matter

This short was a total surprise that checked off all the right boxes and provided all the nostalgic feels from the horror movies I've loved since I was a kid. I was overtaken by not only the visuals and practical effects, but the incredible attention to detail and a trove of Easter eggs throughout. It's an excellent adaptation with Larry Fessenden front and center being the gem of a character actor that he is. Shorts are a special art form all within itself with the horror genre and this one nails it deserving high praise and repeat viewings.

This movie is really uncomfortable and really gross and it's absolutely amazing for it, the direction is superb, the visual effects are outstanding, i sat watching talking to a producer and we were discussing how it's better than most Hollywood big budget horror movies. Outstanding.

This short film really nails the spirit of the King short story. Loved the gooey practical effects! The actors all do a good job at selling the fear and paranoia as well. Check it out!!

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 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!
