Here's a fantastically made horror short film that you'll want to watch called Don't Move. It was directed by Anthony Melton from a script written by David Scullion. It's another entry in the Bloody Cuts anthology of short horror movies. This is an awesome film, and I liked the concept. Here's a little description...

Set on one fateful night, six friends gather for their monthly ‘games night’… and accidentally unleash a demonic force that might tear them - and their friendships - to pieces.

For those of you like me who enjoy the horror genre, you're going to enjoy this.

We've made no secret of our love for British anthology series Bloody Cuts. The team is assembling 13 short films to put together into one large project. And all the films have been outstanding. However, with Don't Move the Bloody Cuts team has outdone themselves.

Made in association with Millennium F/X, Don't Move is an amazing short film. The guys at Bloody Cuts have proven time and time again that they can build tension, but they do it better than ever in this picture. You will be absolutely blown away by the effects in this film. It contains a monster that is better quality than almost anything you've seen in feature films in years, and the death scenes are top notch. And by the way, the last death is absolutely stunning. Don't Move is a damn near perfect short film. #Awesome!

The film stars Rachel Bright, Ian Whyte, Jake Hendricks,...
