Short Films:
The 3:07 Project - The devil's hour, which takes place at 3:07 AM, is the most haunted time of the day. VICE and The Conjuring selected four directors to create short horror films inspired by that idea. Each one is distinctly twisted and scary.
Bus Stop - A Short Horror Film - A chilling short horror film about two young strangers waiting for the bus and getting entangled in the mysterious and terrifying circumstances around the bus stop. Written & Directed by Zora Cielle Anri.
If Horror Movies Took Place on Native Reservations by Che Jim.
The Chair - After Reese (Anthony Pavone) brings home an antique chair, a series of horrific events follow, leading him to question if it's a malevolent spirit the chair possesses or the darkness inside his own mind. Directed by Curry Barker.
Grampy - A grief-stricken woman dates a similarly mourning man, only to discover that he keeps the stuffed corpse of his late grandfather taxidermy-style in the bedroom of his remote farmhouse where she is now trapped by a storm and forced to spend one terrifying night with “Grampy.” Blue Dog Films.
No Through Road - On December 17th 2008 four 17 year old boys were found dead in their car at an abandoned farm, 10 miles from their hometown. This video contains the unedited footage from the camera belonging to one of the boys, also found in the car. (Very disturbing!)
PASSERBY - After a pair of hikers get spooked by an unsettling character they meet along the trail, a thick fog settles in with a twist that makes them realize things aren't what they seem. Directed by Sarah Parrish
The Ghost At the Table - Julie (Roxy Striar) discovers one night she's being haunted. But why? What does this ghost want? And will it pay its share of rent? Written & Directed by Cameron Rice.
TROLL BRIDGE - Cohen the Barbarian was angry. Angry that he never died in battle, angry that the world had forgotten him, and angry that his knees were starting to play up in the cold. TROLL BRIDGE is a love-letter to Terry Pratchett and Discworld. It exists because an awful lot of people thought it ought to. (Included because I thought it was funny!)
Unedited Footage of a Bear - This is unedited raw footage of a bear I filmed with my cell phone. I'm not sure what kind of bear this is. Adult Swim.
YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE BODIES IN THE WATER - SCP-2316 is a body of water within which anomalous sensory phenomena manifest. On their return from Grace’s sister’s funeral, Grace and her ex-boyfriend make a ‘quick' stop at a lake area from her childhood where they encounter SCP-2316. Director / Camera / Editor / Writer: Ryan Leshock.
