As it is October, it's time to break out the scares...
Temptations - "Scaredy Cat"
The first short this week comes from Zombie Studio, created for Temptations cat treats. It's a brilliant film, but even more so when you see the making of video here. The stop motion set is absolutely incredible!

Not Alone in Here
This second piece from David F Sandberg plays to a fear most of us have had at one time or another. I love how the story is told through voiceover of the thoughts of the main character...and fits great for the end shot (you'll see). I'm reaching out to David for interview, so stay tuned.

This next piece I love for it's immense creepiness. Aside from that, the cinematography is incredible.
