"Warnings" is weird, scary and disturbing. I had to look away a few times which is what I do when I am anticipating a scene that will freak me out too much. This is definitely one of the best short films I've ever watched on YouTube. The slow motion scenes are extremely upsetting and the creepy sounds and eerie noises in the background are horrifying and effective. I will definitely have to watch more of Curry Barker's films. I need to watch "Warnings" a few more times in order to hopefully have a better understanding of the plot it seems as though much of it is intentionally meant to allow the viewer to imagine his or her own nightmarish conclusions. I rate it a 9 out of 10. Great work by all involved in the production and execution of this eerie and upsetting short horror film.
I watched about 45 minutes and then I was compelled to turn it off. Nothing whatsoever about "TALK TO ME" appealed to me. I couldn't relate to the characters. The dialogue sounded much like mush mouthed chatters and ramblings. The main character was extremely boring and weak. The frustration I experienced while watching the first 45 minutes made me realize that there was no hope for redemption and it would be a pointless waste and an exercise in futility to continue. Perhaps most pre-teens and teens will love TALK TO ME because they can relate to the shallow characters but for me I hated this "horror" film more than words can describe. 1 star out of 10.
The Playground checks all the boxes necessary in order for me to consider it an effective and satisfying work of masterful filmmaking in which I often dismiss as sorely lacking in the horror genre.
If your preference for horror is similar to mine, you will be impressed with this film. It's 2:35 minutes long and it is somewhat slow paced for the most part however the time and patience invested here will ultimately satisfy one's desire to complete a rewarding experience in horror.
Producer, writer and director Endreace Purmul delivers a subtle balance of disturbing suspense, unpredictability and cleverly developed storytelling in The Playground. I am one who is not easily impressed, often bored, impatient and ,more often than not, dissatisfied in my search for satisfying experiences in the horror genre.
Endreace Purmul receives my highest recommendation for this dark, The Shining-like creepiness he delivers in The Playground.
10/10.
