    Pointless

    This movie is completely pointless. Rehearsing the short dance scene must have taken longer than writing the script. I know it's a short movie. I've seen many good short movies. This is not one of them. Writing this review and trying to bring it up to the required sixhundred characters probably takes longer than writing the script. If you read the blurb of the movie, you already know everything that happens. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. The production staff really tried hard to make this look good and the actors do their best, but there is simply no substance to the story at all. 321.

    Cute.

    Cute short, that I only saw because I didn't notice it was a short.

    It felt like a real movie, not happening fast or rushed, that just ended. So if you don't know this is a short, I don't think you'll be able to tell either, it just quickly ends and it just leaves you there hanging.

    Anyway for short movies IMDB should really change their 600 characters policy, because there isn't too much to cover.

    It is a 15 minutes production, with good actors, nice location and an interesting plot to be honest.

    It tries some character development, very little tension, it just fails with the ending. It simply happened too fast and it had nothing to do with the characters, they were just in the back seat, leaving the villain to be cut short by the movie's runtime and not a proper development.

    Thus being said, sure I can recommend it, but more importantly those involved in the movie should prepare to make the bigger step. So far so good.

    Cheers!

    Why release this?

    I can only speculate that this was meant to be a kind of demo reel for the people involved in the production to burnish their resumes and show they have the necessary technical skills to work on some future costumed period drama or PG-13 horror movie. In that case good for them, it certainly looks more polished than the average student film. But the story and writing are inane and they were (apparently) surplus to the demo reel objective of showing the production team's directorial, cinematographic, acting, set design, et cetera competence. This certainly wasn't made for public consumption or to entertain an audience. So why release it?

    Short nothing

    Here is probably the biggest budget and least memorable short film ever. It has an unoriginal story and a terrible ending. The CGI candle was pointless. It has very long credits for such a short film about nothing. The acting and dancing was fine though. Disco Inferno has absolutely no impact whatsoever, don't bother.

    Since IMDb requires 600 character even for short films I'm going to copy and paste my review.

    What is that?

    Omg. What did I watch? First of all I have to say please do not produce short horror movie. Because till now every short horror movie is so boring, so annoying, so meaningless. No horror elements in here. By the way I like the idea, maybe someone can make a long version of that but with this version it is really absurd. I like disco atmosphere. Dresses and looks was good. I can say I loved only this part of the movie. What happened actually I don't know. It is so open ending story. Why happened this exorcism things to main character no Idea. That was stupid part. This black eyes situation was really unnecessary. Anyway I think it is kind of experimental movie and cinematography was good but no story, no acting skills in it for me..
