Dead Enders (Short 2023) delivers a truly fun and engaging experience. The excellent cinematography immediately stands out, creating a visually rich atmosphere that's impressive for its short format. Even with its brevity, the storyline is impressively to the point and feels remarkably well-developed, leaving a lasting impact. The acting across the board was phenomenal, and Scarlett Redd particularly shines, bringing a captivating depth and nuance to her role. Despite being a short film, Dead Enders manages to pack a powerful punch, feeling like a detailed, cinematic big-budget production achieved in a concise timeframe.
This film had me laughing out loud one moment, and gasping the next. The pacing was perfect from beginning to end, and the lines are some of the funniest I've ever heard. This film does, in a little over 12 minutes, what a lot of modern horror/comedy movies fail to do in 120, which is give the audience exactly what they came for. They deliver backstory, build-up, and climax with precision, and you can really feel the heart of this film with every scene. Overall, it's a fun film with fun characters and fun scares. I absolutely loved it, and I can't wait to tell everyone I know to watch it immediately!
This short film is a perfect blend of horror and campy comedy. The deeper message and symbolism is also very interesting. I appreciated the fast pace and felt like they packed a lot of story into a very short run time. There were moments and lines that made me laugh out line and then seconds later I'd be holding my breath in anticipation. The cast was stellar and everyone embodied their roles so perfectly! I also appreciate the color grading and overall vibe and aesthetic of the film, it really added a lot of visual impact and appeal. I wouldn't mind if this film was optioned to be a full length movie or even a short run tv series!!
Some scenes were a little too dark to see exactly what was going on and the acting could have used a little bit of help. But the overall movie was good. The plot was great and easy to follow along with. Had the perfect amount of comedy, creepy crawlers and I didn't see the twists and turns coming. Like mentioned in the review title the movie was corny at time but was still entertaining and worth watching. Short, quick and to the point entertainment for when wasting time to leave the house but you don't have enough time to watch a full movie or episode. Definitely recommend giving it a try. You won't be disappointed.
Good remind of B horrors of 1950 , fair parable about humans and parasites , honest end.
Few virtues of a short film about a small fist of cliches and their smart use , in ironic manner, about deep exploitation of gas , a gas clerk wasting her future , her boss and two cops , easy life when a dangeor changes, in radical manner, the perspectives.
Not great but useful, especially for the nice performance of Skarlett Redd , offering realistic portrait of a young woman , prisoner, in out going way, of comfortable routine.
Nothing great or original. But nice and inspiring some nostalgia. And, maybe, it is just enough.
