Disco Inferno

I must confess I plunged into this netlix job rather unaware of what lay ahead. Therefore, it is difficult to claim offense when the thing came to an abrupt end. It was a short and I found out the hard way, but with a feeling of relief as well. After all, I wasn't especially enjoying what I had seen, so out of sight, out of mind. The very bare plot juggles demonic possession, maternity and boogie in a hurry that mostly denotes a flair of 70s nostalgia (mostly Dario Argento and John Travolta) and a slavery to well trodden tropes of both horror and musical movies. The outcome is not remarkably outstanding, just another netflix whim of a genre, that of horror, that requires imagination and sense of humor. Most recent case in point: Adult Swim Yule Log. This one, I do recommend.

Cute short, that I only saw because I didn't notice it was a short.

It felt like a real movie, not happening fast or rushed, that just ended. So if you don't know this is a short, I don't think you'll be able to tell either, it just quickly ends and it just leaves you there hanging.

Anyway for short movies IMDB should really change their 600 characters policy, because there isn't too much to cover.

It is a 15 minutes production, with good actors, nice location and an interesting plot to be honest.

It tries some character development, very little tension, it just fails with the ending. It simply happened too fast and it had nothing to do with the characters, they were just in the back seat, leaving the villain to be cut short by the movie's runtime and not a proper development.

Thus being said, sure I can recommend it, but more importantly those involved in the movie should prepare to make the bigger step. So far so good.

Cheers!

What absolute twaddle. I am so frustrated right now, and yes, bitter! I have came up with ideas, I have written short stories, and nothing has ever been picked up by anyone. I then turn on Netflix and watch this rubbish! How in the actual flubber does stuff like this even get produced? Complete and utter waste of time! I think they are trying to be clever and artsy, but is just comes across as an absolute dog's dinner of a production. Hell even the actors don't seem to know what their motivation is supposed to be. I am absolutely still shaking my head in disbelief that this is a thing that was written, produced, cast, filmed and distributed!

Here is probably the biggest budget and least memorable short film ever. It has an unoriginal story and a terrible ending. The CGI candle was pointless. It has very long credits for such a short film about nothing. The acting and dancing was fine though. Disco Inferno has absolutely no impact whatsoever, don't bother.

Since IMDb requires 600 character even for short films I'm going to copy and paste my review.

This movie is completely pointless. Rehearsing the short dance scene must have taken longer than writing the script. I know it's a short movie. I've seen many good short movies. This is not one of them. Writing this review and trying to bring it up to the required sixhundred characters probably takes longer than writing the script. If you read the blurb of the movie, you already know everything that happens. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. The production staff really tried hard to make this look good and the actors do their best, but there is simply no substance to the story at all. 321.
