Black Sugar

Mix of fantasy, teen movies, horror, it is remarkable at the level of special effects. But no more. After its end, the story seems to fragile and the performances are just drawings. And the strange "sugar" remains a sort of jelly with poppy seeds. So, a decent film. But far to be convincing. Or exploring the posibilities of story.

This short film is about a group of bored teens who decide to eat a treat that sends them to a dark realm.

While I've seen some short films that are made on bigger budgets, I commend the film makers for their imagination. The plot is very interesting and I would like to see a longer version of this film. Another thing I found interesting about this short film is the film makers are Lovecraftians and it shows. They understand the concept behind Eldritch beings from another dimension and the terror they can create.

While this short film isn't the best, I still give the film makers kudos on the concept and the story.
