La duodécima hora

("The 12th hour") is a quirky and interesting short movie who explores the mysteries behind the making of a classic horror movie, "Nosferatu" (Murnau's bizarre adaptation of "Dracula").Two young Spanish filmmakers Rodrigo Plaza and Juanma Ruiz wrote and directed it...and everything else. Rodrigo worked as production designer. His home became one of the sets. His father and grandfather made the props you can see on screen, including Murnau's diary or Sherrinford's phonograph. Juanma edited the movie. Both of the directors worked as cinematographers as well. It's was shown at Alcine (Alcalá Henares Film Festival, in Madrid) last Sunday. A must see movie if you like Polanski's "The Ninth gate" or Peter Jackson's "Forgotten silver".

I've seen the film and its very expressive, I think that is a great job where you can experiment a good sensation, a mixture of fear and suspense around the film. The film is a good mixture of terror, fantasy and gag (in some moments)that involves at spectator in an special atmosphere I want give regards to all the staff because they have done a great film without big expansive costs. I expect that this'd be the start of the way to hall of fame in Hollywood and the first step to the way to Oscar's nomination, perhaps is very soon to say this but the talent is here and it'll not be unperceived. ¡Congratulations guys, good job! Good Luck!!
