This is the perfect length for a horror story. Nothing is wasted and it doesn't drag. Great atmosphere and the actors did a fantastic job.
That creepy happy birthday song at the end gets me every time!
Stunning photography
Imagine just sending in the rookie while you just chill. XD
Gosh I hate how underrated these videos are like you spend so much time on this just for a few views like come on people this is good 😤
Absolutely incredible cinematography and lighting! The acting was phenomenal! I was so creeped out at the end that I almost lost bowl of popcorn!
My favorite short film 2021
- 9-1-1 What is your emergency?
- Whom do you call? Ghostbusters!
bye when he read the balloon and then the kid's face popped up i literally jumped 💀 bpm go 📈
So underrated and good horror films need atleast 30 mins of films not 14:41 films so brilliant. Good direction good cast fantastic
Fantastic work all around!!! Loved the Easter egg.
Neither one of them said thank you for the free ☕ coffee and why wasn't the Sgt in there with Reynolds the rookie?! 👀 This was terrifying 😱 & a very good film!
Honestly, when that single bowling lane light came on... My skin was crawling! Keep the great work coming!
Even I rose my eyes in surprise. That was well done. It's was pretty atmospheric
Private Security Officer on the uniforms threw me off
Good Work! I like how there's no jump scares. Uneasy Creepy situation. Great acting by all. I can see this easily on episode of Tales from the Crypt.
Loved the Ivy Easter Egg at the beginning with the picture 😁
Genuinely impressive work. Really high quality stuff in all aspects, great job to all involved!
I just want to nitpick a few minor things. The uniforms....private security? They kind of take you out of the moment when you see it. The voice for dispatch....oh boy, the effect was bad. Other than those few things, it was fantastic.
Great film an I don't scared easy but then again who would watch this alone in a dark room no lights aloooooooone. 👍👍
This short has more atmosphere of fear than most blockbusters lately. Likable actors, great wrong decision making, I mean it's not just one person without any backup. Kudos to the lighting crew!
Yooooooo!!! I actually jumped🤣 Great film!!!!
Thank you for checking this out, bro!!!
Yo! That's my friend @jacedakotah
If they’re with the sheriffs department how can they’re uniform says Security?
This makes me think about an old bowling alley that I used to go to. It’s been shut down for about 20 years now. It just sits there looking creepy. I couldn’t even imagine going inside that place now.
Looking for much more. I enjoying it
The kid was great actor - very sinister!
There was no child actor in film's credits.
Dude another fantastic short, absolutely amazing 🤟🤘🤘🤙🤙
This was a great short film! Very well done!
I'm about halfway through and I noticed their uniforms say "private security" but they're supposed to be cops. I wonder, did they have to do that for legal reasons or something?
Legal and budget restrictions.
This was such an amazing film. Super scary and awesome cinematography. 5 stars out of 5
amazing! and terrifying! keep up the good work
Great backstory, foreshadowing and believable characters. Absolutely perfect. Loved it!
Nice short! Love horror so I'm definitely here for it! Great job to all! Big ups Kev! I know 2 things......When I walk in that bowling alley, you coming with me AND I'm not leaving that knife (or the cake) behind lol! Great job yall. Checked out Ivy too; was she on the wanted poster at the beginning? If so.....Dooooope!!!
Yep, that was our girl on the poster! All of our films take place within the same “universe”.
Thanks for checking this out bro! 😂😂😂 Okay cool! I see you saw the Easter egg w/ Ivy being on the Wanted poster.
@@postmortemfilmsofficial hi just watching this now looks pretty awesome and very freaky would be great for Halloween it giving me chills the errie feel off the building love these movie shorts there just tense and scary without blood
This was 🔥🔥🔥!!! It turned out great & creepy!
My favorite actor
Wonderful work! Beyond proud of everyone for what they did! 🔥🔥
That was epic thank you for this gem!!
That was amazing!
Beautifully designed and built....keep things growing up...
This is my kind of horror short. I cared about the characters. Some weird business went down. I got creeped out. Perfect.
Nice one, i like how you build the story, effects and sound track. Keep up the good work
Guys this was great! I scared my wife though.. when the bowling ball came out I yelled YOU BIG DUMMY IT IS TIME TO GO
This is good! Loving it and I just started watching 😛
Great acting, great suspense, and the score is spot on. Only critique is costume/wardrobe; sheriff's department wouldn't be wearing private security uniforms - just a small detail that kind of distracts some people from the film. I know it's minor, but the private security patches are glaringly obvious for a rather long scene in a pretty short film.
Great Job!!!
Great aesthetics 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 It’s a vibe!
Awww, he just wanted to have people at his birthday party. He was lonely and he was crying.
It's his party, and he'll cry if he wants to
Cry if he wants to
Cry if he wants to
You would cry too if it happened to you
Oddly satisfying, the kid was great & played his part well, creating an eerie suspense, almost terrifying. Well done..
You seriously deserve an award for this! Brilliant work, brilliant acting, just amazingly brilliant!!! You are impressively talented!
Good movie but in reality a police officer would not sit back in his vehicle on a break in call and allow his partner to go in alone especially when he says the door is open.
Outstanding. It packs as much of a punch as a feature length film.
Really so so good ! Great acting !
Oh man this was great!! 👏👏
Acting is fantastic!
Brilliant 🇨🇮🍀😱🙊🙈🙉
Thank you for making me reach for clean knickers 🥴
Now THAT’s a cool scary short film. Well done.
This was outstanding. WAY better than that garbage Alter puts out.
Loved it...I couldn't see anything I would change. KUDOS!
Nice JOB Postmortem Films! Great It's always when Bad things happen to Our Good guys in Blue!) Cheers!
Best horror short ever!!!! I didn’t want it to end!!!!!
That was great!!!!
I absolutely loved it!!!
Good old horror film.
Nice work good👍👍👍
Great story 👏
That was awesome!👍👍
Congratulations! Tense and no need to false jump scare us. I love jump scares, absolutely fucking hate cheap fake ones. I would pay to watch a full length.
This looks like the same universe as a previously view horror short. This one had some teen girls that ate some teen boys, I do believe one of those girls is on the Wanted poster at the beginning
love the laugh at the end
So what happens at the end ? Did the black officer stay for the boys party ?
Great!
Having watched this I knew I was watching high quality filming with very good actors. Thank you.
Sorry deleted previous comment by accident,
Thanks for the kind words, Frank! I recommend watching our newest film “LURE” if you enjoyed.
When you work a job like this never ever say out loud, "Looks like it's gonna be a slow night." Because you basically jinx your whole evening until day breaks.
Open positions available now
Best comment award ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very good film thank you
I like short horror movie.... Super
Fantastic
Super 💞💞💞💞👍💓💞💞💞
So good of a short that by the end I was wishing it was longer. Nevertheless I had to sub. I look forward to seeing your post in the future. Thank you.
Oh shit
This mini horror 🎥, IS DA 💣💣! 🔪🔪🔪🔪
That was actually really good I like that that was pretty cool so what did the ghost boy do kill them...
Suppose to back up your fellow officer and where was backup sleeping on the side of the road or at a donut or coffee shop ? Who agrees with me !!!
I thought the same thing. I found it surreal to watch as one officer sat in the vehicle while the other investigated alone.
They should've conducted a perimeter sweep together then made entry together; then sweept the place together. No one goes anywhere alone is the rule of thumb in situations like these.
The rookie's flashlight was laughable. Need more lumens bro. The first duty of a flashlight is so an officer can see WTF is going on at a distance in low light conditions. The second duty of the flashlight is to blind and or stun a suspect. What's more, the idea is to carry a flashlight that is large enough (so you can get a good grip on it) to pull double duty as a bludgeoning weapon in a pinch; one that can gouge an unruly suspect's eye and or bust out a car window.
Secondly, he was holding his flashlight in the wrong hand. Notice the long and clumsy transition that it took for him to move the flashlight from his dominant hand to his non-dominate hand. If a perpetrator had jumped out of the shadows at him and opened fire or lunged at him with a blade or blunt object they could've closed the distance with time to spare.
The senior officer with his finger on the trigger made me cringe. That's how you end up with an accidental discharge. It only takes .25 seconds to move your finger from the slide to the trigger well; hence there was no need for his finger to be on the trigger when there was no target to engage.
Also I found it weird how the senior officer sat down in the coffee shop and didn't choose a seat where he wasn't facing the door or some other seat which gave him a tactical advantage if any hostile entered the premises.
@@commandericeman8588 Also their uniforms said Private Security Officer. We're they moonlighting? 😂😂😉👮👮
No more bowling for me great story
No way! I literally live like 20 mins from this bowling alley.
Not bad at all!!!
“If you see anything, call for back up.”
Sees multiple sketchy skit + a kid with a severed arm and doesn’t say anything
All I can think of is "A body has been discovered"
What's happening now???.😲Creepy and strange.That is it. Just jog out of that Bowling alley.I hope his name is not Owen.I doubt that Sherriff murdered any one or animal.😞Poor guy.Owen's a kid?YOur gonna get it.Leave.I knew it.😞😲
⭐⭐⭐ The start of it was kinda bootleg but towards the end it made up for it confused on how they private security but police at the same time anyway it was good nice jumpscare
YOU MOFOS REFERENCES FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY´S AYYYYYY
They wouldn't turn on the lights and siren
Wait.. are they police or security? I know in some communities like South Africa the private security companies do a lot of the actual policing but this sounds like the USA
Night Shift? More like *Death Shift* !!!
How come you guys couldn't get police officer uniforms??
Budget restraints? Legal issues?
Dude. Turn the lights on.
Creeeeepy 😰
Unrealistic. Cop would have shot the kid as soon as he saw the knife.
This is a good short film but buy observation the bloody footprint looks like a grown man's foot i was just state the obvious
3:45 My prediction: The rookie is a werewolf. That beard, his "community", it seems like a swerve.
We like the way you think, at least.
@@postmortemfilmsofficial Hey, you can always use the same actors in a new reboot, like they did with Freddy and Frank in the "Return of the Living Dead" series.
"Watch your tongue, boy, if you like this job!"
"Like this job?!"
Also the name of Stephen king movie
Silent Hill 2 the bowling alley.
