Was over at McGoo’s, where he tipped his readers off to Drew Dewalt and his mini-horror short movies – hats off to Dewalt, who has risen in my estimation as one hell of a good spooky movie storyteller.
This stuff is online and there’s a score of episodes to Camera Obscura, all anywhere from 3 to 8 minutes long each, but oh my goodness they are packed.
Good God, McGoo… what awesometastic timing. Halloween got a kick in the pants after many years and thousands of crappy movies kicking it in the nuts.

Update to that Camera Obscura thing… the ending could have been done better but I’m not sure how, exactly. It just seemed really brief. But overall it was most excellent.

Ok, once again, I will wait for hubby to be available for hand-holding/ eye-covering help.
I don’t do well with horror….
That’s awesome stuff.
Thanks for the hat-tip, LK!
Oh, hell yes. Nothin’ like a good pant-shitter horror flick to get the juices – and other semi-fluids – flowing.
Better’n Ex-lax or a green apple any day!
What I like about these “shorts” (some symbolism there, methinks) is that not only are they really short-scorchingly good, they don’t take long to watch!
Aggie, when I was very young I was constantly having nightmares about movies my folks let me go see with my older sisters. I’d wake up screaming, they’d comfort me, get me settled down, and then say “No more monster movies for you!” That would set me off in a fresh tirade of “No! I wanna see more monsters!”
I loves me a good monster movie.
Happy Halloween LK! I hope the kids get a good haul this year!
They each got enough candy to fill the skull of an industrial-sized monster.
About a year’s worth of candy, I’d say.
