    The Elemental

    I saw The Elemental at Celluloid Screams horror festival in sheffield last weekend & thought it was magnificent , the scenery was awesome & found out by the director that some of it was filmed in a decaying tenement block in Scotland , the short also originated from a story his Grandmother told him when he was 10 years old & it stuck with him it was that scary. If you get the chance to see this at your local horror festival , don't pass it up , you'll really like it. The film is about a girl who is told that if she leaves her blind mothers high rise flat she will come across something supernatural called an elemental which some kind of ghost / creature that if you see it in the corner of your eye & then look at it , you will be killed by it. This short had lots of creepyness to it & was shot beautifully & Robert Scroul-cran should be very proud , would love to see him make a full feature with this story.
