Toll Booth

I'm getting into short films lately and I REALLY enjoyed this one. Funny, eerie and leaves me wanting more. Perfect! Great lead in Andrew Shire and I'm sure we'll be seeing much more from him in the future too. If Martin and Andrew continue their collaboration I'm sure they'll be looking at big things fast. Great work all!

Really cool short film; refreshing and intelligent 🤓. Well done

An excellent little British short film. Minimal resources used to great effect. A guy turns up for his first night shift manning the toll booth. Slowly things start to get weird. Perfectly paced to inflict enough eeriness to get the spine nerve a tingling. A convincing performance by the lead, who convincingly portrays a man losing his touch on reality. Stocks is learning his craft quickly, with a few shorts now under his belt. One shot, a homage to Kubrick's The Shining, is excellently nailed. For a second there I thought it was actually Jack Nicholson cut into the movie.

This is an outstanding first short from Martin Stocks. Written, Directed and Produced by the boy wonder. Well worth the copious amounts of awards it has gained. Looking forward to a potential feature film.

Martin Stock's Toll Booth is an excellent and exceptionally British Horror Story. It does an incredible balancing act of being both unnerving and creepy whilst also delivering solid laughs.

The performance from lead Andrew Shire, ties it all together brilliantly, and you're always kept on the edge of your seat by the assured direction.

A great Short, Well worth a watch.
