"Brutal at times. This is one piece of film work that will stir up chaos in the industry."

Definitely one of the greatest short films I have ever seen. Forget budget, cranes, jib-arms, all the expensive film stuff. Simple shots are executed with style. I've watched this movie more than once and know I'll be viewing it a couple more times. I don't care what people will say about how violent it is. It's weird, I'm not usually into violent movies, but for some reason I could handle this. It's almost like one of those fun matinee films you see on a Saturday afternoon with some friends. I can see this becoming a cult classic, I really do.

Empty playground awashed with blood.

I first saw "Callous Sentiment" during Horror Fiesta Festival in Warsaw in 2004 and I enjoyed this little bit unsettling short.A local playground seems to be awashed with blood of murder and suicide victims.A murder takes place in the same place every day for one kid's amusement.Vincent Grashaw's "Callous Sentiment" is surprisingly professional horror short with decent acting and some well-executed and I dare say powerful scenes of violence.The suicide hanging could have been better,though.I also think the bright daytime and otherwise family setting lessened the mood a bit.Still if you enjoy watching short horror films you can't go wrong with "Callous Sentiment".

"Dark... Controversial... Disturbing!"

After viewing this film, I couldn't help but feel bothered. The realistic violence was almost too hard to look at. THAT is why films like this should be made. Leaving the audience with the questions it did tells me that the movie did it's job. If the director wants you to feel a certain way, you do... He wants you to ask a certain question, you will... He has you in the palm of his hands at all times. It was brilliant!

Visuals of violence turn a kid on to the dark side.

This film is VERY violent, but not gratuitous. The visuals are not overdone. The scenes were handled with a 'Twilight Zone' feel. Leaving you disturbed at times, you cannot shut your eyes because the anticipation of what will happen next is too great.

A Delusional Introduction To Violence.

I enjoyed watching this short film at the "The New York Horror Film Festival". The director's camera work and the lead character's transition into violence, along with his resistance, was well delivered.

Jeremy Pryer delivers a very good performance as a quiet neighborhood teen who starts to experience visions of violence at a small playground.

I think Vincent Grashaw is talented, and I will be keeping an eye out for more of his work in the future.
