    Pecci Grows In His Role

    I've had the joy of watching Mike grow into a bona-fide director to watch, a true visionary intent to carve his own path in the world of cinema. Before I continue I will address the elephant in the room, the 2.99 fee. It's firstly not a fee, it's to help and support future projects if you believe what you've seen so far from previous projects is "worth it". If you still need to think of it as a fee, then it's safe to say its worth it.

    Pecci brings this nine minute piece to a huge crescendo, utilising the time without bombarding us with information. I love the Christmas setting and sits well with the story itself, a plot point rather than a gimmick. I'm going the spoiler free route so forgive me for being curt. If you're a fan of Creepshow and other anthology based projects, give this and all Mike's stuff a watch. If you prefer longer movies, that give time for a story to breathe then donate the 2.99 and hopefully we get a full feature that will be more than a long time coming.

    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?

    Great suspense beautifully shot I NEED MORE

    Loved this short very well done , the color palette, the aesthetic, the shots , the performance all very well done. I need to know more of what is going to happen but for the purposes of the short this is a very entertaining watch. This is the kind of picture that will let you have a lot of fun trying to create the end of the story in your mind. Can't wait to see more from this director. Projects like this are keeping horror alive and well Thank you!! Would very much like to see this concept turned into a full length motion picture this will be something I will be thinking about again and again over the next few weeks.

    Knock Knock

    No joke - well you may say obviously since this is not a comedy but a horror movie/short ... hopefully you will still allow me to say no pun (or knock for that matter) intended. The director knows how to market his stuff, very active on Instagram and since he was quite successful with another short he gave this another (viral) try.

    While you did not have to pay for the km movie, this one had a renting fee, but if you want to encourage and help independent filmmakers you hopefully won't mind. Though Mike happily will accept "hate money" too (I assume). The short which is about 10 minutes long has a simple premise. Though you can speculate about the bad/evil within (deep within I reckon) and way behind ... the door.

    Suspension of disbelief is always necessary and this is not an exception of the rule. Once you've accepted the ... let's call it "door opener" (playing of toy), everything else is fair game. Of course the how, why and where as in origin ... well those things are not really answered. But there has to be some mystique to it ... otherwise it might be boring.

    There is some minor nudity in this - if you care one way or the other (it actually shouldn't upset or arouse you, but I am not judging either way) and the sound design is really well done ... cinematography is also really good, but the sound is what elevates the whole thing even further.
