    Decent Horror Short

    Won't You Come Home, Bones Bailey? (2014)

    ** 1/2 (out of 4)

    Melinda Rainsberger wrote and directed this five-minute short about a band member who doesn't come home one night but a form of him eventually does. The title song is one that some may be familiar with but it was put to good use and I thought the director managed to make it fun. The soundtrack is certainly the highlight of the film as it was quite catchy and made for a fun, foot-shaking time. I won't ruin the twist in the story but it was mildly entertaining. With so many horror shorts out there it's sometimes hard to find a decent one but this here is worth watching.
