Dead Enders

I actually really enjoyed the color pallet of this film! I'm big on color, lol.

It reminded me of the movie Clerks but the horror/comedy version, lol.

Maya is definitely relatable. Not sure if that's a good thing.

The acting was just okay. I didn't expect top tier acting though and can get past that.

It felt king of like it had some 80s vives which I enjoyed.

I also really enjoy a campy creature feature! This for sure check off the box for that.

It had some great humor and was short and sweet. Best short film I have seen so far this year.

I don't know why, but this film also gave me nostalgia.

Dead Enders (Short 2023) delivers a truly fun and engaging experience. The excellent cinematography immediately stands out, creating a visually rich atmosphere that's impressive for its short format. Even with its brevity, the storyline is impressively to the point and feels remarkably well-developed, leaving a lasting impact. The acting across the board was phenomenal, and Scarlett Redd particularly shines, bringing a captivating depth and nuance to her role. Despite being a short film, Dead Enders manages to pack a powerful punch, feeling like a detailed, cinematic big-budget production achieved in a concise timeframe.

Solid little ditty about more than just dead enders. Really enjoyed the watch (read) between the scenes (lines) scattered throughout this short.

Decent creature effects. Mix of sci-fi and old style horror creature feature bugs.

Character development and acting was spot on. Didn't feel rushed or prompted.

Story line was well written and didn't leave you guessing or scratching your head.

Without giving spoilers - pay attention - believe in yourself - move forward - and we are never guaranteed our place on the food chain!

Don't miss out on this short. You might regret it and not see that Dead End(ers) coming!

This film had me laughing out loud one moment, and gasping the next. The pacing was perfect from beginning to end, and the lines are some of the funniest I've ever heard. This film does, in a little over 12 minutes, what a lot of modern horror/comedy movies fail to do in 120, which is give the audience exactly what they came for. They deliver backstory, build-up, and climax with precision, and you can really feel the heart of this film with every scene. Overall, it's a fun film with fun characters and fun scares. I absolutely loved it, and I can't wait to tell everyone I know to watch it immediately!

Some scenes were a little too dark to see exactly what was going on and the acting could have used a little bit of help. But the overall movie was good. The plot was great and easy to follow along with. Had the perfect amount of comedy, creepy crawlers and I didn't see the twists and turns coming. Like mentioned in the review title the movie was corny at time but was still entertaining and worth watching. Short, quick and to the point entertainment for when wasting time to leave the house but you don't have enough time to watch a full movie or episode. Definitely recommend giving it a try. You won't be disappointed.
