  " Don't Move" - Award Winning Demon Short Film - BLOODY CUTS The film keeps you in a claustrophobic state of fear. Because the characters are trapped in silence—anything that moves or makes a sound can be catastrophic—all coughs, whispers, and movement seem amplified. It causes vivid discomfort, terror, and a primal urge to hold your breath. The tension never lets up, but it blurs into black obsession as the demon presence becomes more tangible. It hits directly into tension without foreboding. After a hasty installation—the friends unwittingly summon a demon using Ouija—the film does not dawdle.

Their evening is turned into a night of terror once they unknowingly summon a demon t...

  THE CENTRIFUGE BRAIN PROJECT (Short Film by Till Nowak)                                         An Unsettlingly Hilarious Journey Through the Absurd STORY AND THEME The Centrifuge Brain Project made me feel a mix of awe, confusion, and delight the kind of strange emotional cocktail you get from watching something both ridiculously funny and eerily plausible. It’s not often that a mockumentary about fictional amusement park rides makes you question the limits of science, sanity, and human ambition, but this short film pulls it off beautifully. Right from the opening shot, the story draws you in. The tone is so convincingly documentary-like that you almost forget it’s satire. It doesn’t waste time within the first minute, you’re already hearing about “scientific experiments” using rides that defy physics, common sense, and possibly health and safety regulations. In a few words, ...

The camera (short film/ original score)review by BAJI NAMAJA:   The film feels ethereal and quietly haunting, evoking a sense of wonder, nostalgia, and gentle melancholy as you follow the protagonist’s journey. •It grips you immediately with its stark, open landscapes and minimal dialogue, drawing you into an atmosphere of mystery from the first frame. •A solitary young woman discovers a vintage Polaroid camera in an abandoned beach house. When she takes a photo, it reveals the faint outline of a boy who isn’t physically present—propelling her on a silent, dreamlike pursuit across the sand.   It meditates on the power of memory and imagination, suggesting that sometimes what we long for exists only in the spaces between images and reality.   •The key surprise is that the camera itself seems to conjure the image of the boy, turning an ordinary object into a doorway between worlds—an elegantly simple twist that feels both The lone female protagonist is ske...
