The Bells

A man alone in his apartment. Sounds of bells. The presence of something. Bloody footsteps. The revelation.

A mother, her son, a window and the tension moment. All is familiar. Maybe too familiar for horror fans. This short film has the virtue to give a reasonable connection between the two slices. And it has the chance to use the sounds in inspired manner. And, othic stories.

Since I became a christian, I've noticed I have become more superstitious and stuff that even didn't bother me in movies before I suddenly find way more scary and creepy than before. I'm not saying you need to be religious to like this movie or find it scary, but if I had seen it 10 years ago I would consider it as just an average short horror film. This isn't a masterpiece, nor one of the best horror movies ever, but it sure is effective! I think this could work as a feature film as well and I sure hope it will end up as one in the future! I think it has potential to become one of the best horror films of the decade.
