The Smiling Man

Short movies make an excellent choice for horror an it goes right to the point...scare you. I felt very disturbed by this one quite clever on how to use in very little time, to me horror the less you show the better, yes you have to the revealing point but the idea of the unknown is way more creepier specially with the glimpse of the smiling man you immediately imagine your worst nightmare coming to the screen and hunting your nightmares the rest of the night, gave me some strong chills and for a horror anthology it could perfectly fit.

I highly recommend this one but watch it like you should at home alone with the only like being the screen were you have to glue your eyes and be waiting for some genuine frights.

I really liked this short horror movie. It lacks dialogue, but isn't hurt a great deal due to some great imagery. The villain is very spooky and convincing. The practical make up effects are superb. The little girl does a great job as well pulling off her character.

I also like the end and implications for the characters. I highly recommend this one for short horror movie fans.

My daughter showed me this short. My eyes were glued to the screen, waiting for what was going to happen next. I thought it was an actual movie I had just walked into the room on. "Just a short on YouTube' she said. This just gave me every kind of creeps there is. Seriously, they could make this into a full length movie. I've sat through a 2 hour movie that didn't give me the Willie's like this did. Bravo. Peace

Version of IT. Crumbs from Snow White. Tension, dark revelation, exercise of seduction. All - in wise manner crafted. A film about innocence and evil. Admirable work for its own voice in the large circle of bad clowns.

The make up artist has done a great thing.The character itself looks so haunting.But it should have been more horrifying.Actually at the beggining,i felt sorry for the look of the smiling man due to his looks.
