    My man!!!

    Dude make a full movie and I would go to a theater and watch it... I think that you can match a Japanese horror/terror movie... You can put the same intensity and some puzzles in our heads... and if you provide 1 more short just as good as the 2 previous, I suggest then you should do a long one.

    And one thing about horror movies you don't need known actors, just pop someone that you think is suitable and drop you ideas into picture, I think you can level the cream of the cream in the genre, both American and Japanese.

    My sincere congratulations and I hope to see more of you in the future... best of luck.

    Kids Never Listen

    I feel like I'm not always the best at reviews. I usually have few words to say even when I really like or love something, but I was given the opportunity to watch another short film from Mike Pecci and contribute to his work so I'll do my best.

    At first I was taken aback by the runtime. I knew it was gonna be a short, but not THAT short, lol. But believe me when I say that I had just watched a full length horror film the night before that didn't hit the mark at all, but Who's There? Was able to get the job done within just 10 minutes. The atmosphere and lighting choices were spot on, and that split second scene with the mother in the bathroom was chef's kiss.

    I'm for sure interested in knowing what happened before Who's There?. Lol, can we get like a 10 minute prequel?

    Amazing Short Horror

    Mike Pecci and his team really did a phenomenal job in conveying an unseen horror behind closed doors. Discovering Pecci through his other short film "12KM" I have fallen in love with the story telling and pacing of his work.

    The use of warm and cool tones throughout this short film is what really caught my eye, directing the viewer's attention to what needs to be seen and highlighting what might seem as just ordinary, but really is very important. The color theory mixed with the anxiety inducing ambient music is what really drives home the unseen horror.

    The actors in this were amazing!! In such a short amount of time we as the audience get to see such a wide range of emotions, especially from Maggie, who played the baby sitter- the close up shots of her face were just fantastic!

    For anyone with a little bit of time who wants something very Lovecraftian, this is the short film for you.

    Amazing !

    The atmosphere of this short film is amazing from the start to end.

    The director Mike Pecci is extremely talented and « Who's There ? » as well as his previous short film « 12KM » really shows this.

    The actors are great and communicate their emotions very well. The music always has an important role in movies and the director used it perfectly.

    It's hard to make people feel things with a short film because you have to get them hooked from the very start but in « Who's There » you get immediately interested and it last for the whole 10 minutes.

    It was truly an amazing experience and I hope to see more of Mike Pecci's work as a director in a future !

    So tense

    Atmospheric camera work and lighting design with immersive sound design draws the viewer in very quickly. It builds on the "creep factor" more than delivering the quiet, quiet, BANG style jump scares seen in so much modern cinema. At times it reminded me of the Nic Cage movie Color Out Of Space. Top quality acting from the cast, the young female in the lead really standing out as a top notch performance. I have seen the director's other movie 12 Kilometers and i am starting to believe that he is a name to watch out for as he is going places. I hope the next movie is a feature film. I highly recommend this.
