Great payoff!

The music at the beginning piqued my interest. I thought "I've heard that before haven't I?" and by the end I had a big smile on my face, as I remembered where I heard that tune.

I've been looking forward to this short since I saw the teaser poster for it.

I have to admit, during the first minute during the setup, I was thinking "oh great, backwoods hicks chasing someone in the woods - please get better." Then it took a 180 and got better than I would have imagined :)

Really creative payoff, overall a Great short - 10/10 - I would love to see more.

GAME is a must-see!

I only gave this a nine instead of a ten only because I want to see it become a feature film. Otherwise it was flawless. I saw this last year at the Freak Show Film Festival in Florida and my husband and I had no idea what to expect because we'd only heard the name, we had no clue what the plot was. This film impressed me to no end! Not only did it pack a great punch story wise, but the special effects were that of a big budget studio film. They must have had some ridiculously talented people working their special effects.

The story, although short, leaves me giddy in anticipation for what this film crew will come out with next. I can only pray that they turn this into a feature film or decide to feature it in an anthology with other amazing horror shorts.

Do yourself a favor and check this out!

Actor, Writer and now Director Josh MacDonald helms a fun, gruesome, and original horror short with some fantastic performances from some hot young actors.

Film starts you down one path and while you think you know exactly where it is going, it does what so many other shorts fail to do and that is to surprise you and take you somewhere completely unexpected!

My only gripe, which isn't really a gripe is that this is a film that could have been a lot longer as there is so much more story to explore!

I can only wait in excitement for Mr. MacDonald's next film, which I can only hope will be a feature!

A Great Surprise

Three deadly pursuers. One terrified woman (Andrea Lee Norwood)... But the game is about to change.

I saw this as part of the Oshkosh Horror Film Festival and must say that it was among the best films showcased there and definitely among the best short films I have seen in recent years.

The "rape revenge" subgenre of horror, popularized by "I Spit on Your Grave", has been overdone and probably done to death (especially considering how offensive it can be). This short starts with that premise but creates its own rules, and that is what makes it special. In a world full of remakes, derivative ripoffs and forgettable trash, this is a keeper.
