Closet Space

A woman makes an incredible discovery involving her closet-and gets a little too excited about it. The end result, however, isn't quite what she hoped for. According to the director, this short film leans more toward Twilight Zone-style storytelling than pure horror, but I'd also consider it a horror comedy.

As such, there's a clear lesson here: don't mess with things you don't understand.

The actors play themselves, with one of them also serving as the film's director. One standout feature of this short is that the horror unfolds entirely in broad daylight, proving that you don't need darkness to deliver chills.

I loved the short. It plays a lot with a small mechanic introduce at the beginning and after that they play a lot with something not happening well it used to work and the situation at the end was funny and surprising.

Sandberg goes sci-fi with 'Closet Space (2016)', a short that resembles something out of 'The Twilight Zone (1959 - 1964)'. It makes excellent use of its setting and length to deliver an escalating experience that revolves around a single, simple premise. It makes use of simple cinematic techniques to achieve its impossible elements, which grounds them in a believable space. It's enjoyable and suitably enigmatic. It also includes a nice little reference to 'Lights Out (2013)'. 7/10.
