Does anyone else think garden gnomes are creepy? I do. And the garden gnome in this horror-comedy micro short film, The Gnome, is particularly unsettling. Encountering it while jogging alone at night on a deserted street isn't exactly something anyone would want-especially when that encounter is preceded by a mysterious text message in the classic horror genre style.
I've seen plenty of micro shorts, but The Gnome stands out because it delivers not just one but two plot twists in just one minute. And these twists are crucial to the story. In this regard, the film makes every second count. It's undoubtedly one of the best micro shorts I've come across in this genre.
