Short Horror Film: Sleep Tight

Remember the phrase "sleep tight don't let the bedbugs bite"?

Well, here comes a horror short film about how careful you should be about these metaphorical bedbugs.

In this short movie, you can see a young man who is confined to a wheelchair about to go to sleep. He wants independence, his father finds it hard to let go. The pair rib each other about their personal tastes when the son decides to go to bed, and the father is about to switch off the lights when the son tells him to leave the lights on. The father blames the horror movies and then leaves.

The son is still paranoid as he checks about the whole room in the dark before going off to bed. And that's when the "bedbug" shows up. In this case, it is a horrific monster woman who straddles the son and gets ready for the kill.

Luckily the father shows up only to misunderstand the whole situation. Was it really too dark that the father couldn't see the woman's face or has he decided to be supportive of all of his son's choices?

The best part of the movie has got to be the SLENDERMAN 2 poster. Imagine Tom Hanks, Rupert Grint and Queen Latifah star in a horror movie. How great would that be? If only it was real...

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer. Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Delirium (2018)— My take on the movie with spoilers!

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying. What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
