- Jack and Ella travel alone, taking the path less trodden. Dishevelled and dirty they keep away from people, towns and cities, off the grid. They are hiding and on the run, but from what and why?

Never understood why someone would dig their own grave, your gonna die anyway least go out swinging, let the killer dig his own damn grave to put your body in.
Plus...not to mention the weapon you have in your hands while digging
For real
I'd dig slooowlllyyy...
@Hello Kitty Candy Bite none of what you said made sense..bro.
Agree 100%!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 ⛏️
I would really be glad if it has some captions. Some parts are really hard to understand without that.
Imagine being American
David Souza I’m hard of hearing so I miss so much
Put captions its very hard to understanding,for brasilians
David Souza I personally didn’t find it at all difficult to understand, but the CC that’s available on most devices works on these videos.
Yes
I'd love it if things were explained a bit more. There's a difference between good storytelling that leaves things to the imagination and just throwing things together without explanation
Or at least explain the plot, y'know, so people would know what they're watching
Read the book of Revelation. It's about the coming of the antichrist
Some people like cliffhangers that make you think 🤔

@@Girlkris89 it doesn't make you think in a good way though.
I love these shorts!!! Sometimes you can get more entertainment out of a 20 minute video than you can out of a 2 hour movie!! That was well done, and well acted!!! Love it!
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Good Shorts are almost always better I notice
I hope so
That is the TRUTH! This was excellent!
I have often thought how many good actors are out there and not just holly weird.
This short film is better than a lot of full length movies! Thanks ALTER!!!
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Guy Soulsby who are you?
@@static2140 he's the director
Agree 👍
There should be caption in all the movies...it's difficult to understand otherwise, though I know English. The tone and pronounciation is different for different countries. Captions make it easier and enjoyable without getting stressful trying to catch the exact dialogues delivered. Thanks.
Between this channel Dust and Crypt TV who need Netflix
Joaquin Ortega you forgot to menrion "screamfest" or you havent seen their channel.
Dust is a great channel too
Exactly
And SCREAMFEST!
People who can afford netflix 👍
There should be a better ending than that for a film with such a good beginning and a middle.
It didn't end. She'll be back, We are still searching.
The end is this. If your teeth don't like who cares. This movie is perfect,from beginning to end.
I liked the ending (and the rest of it)
Idk I felt it was quite abrupt but a fair ending nonetheless. Woulda been cool to at least see her wreak a lil more havoc, one way or another...
Better ending? It's the apocalypse, what's better?
The acting cinematography and effects all better than a lot of full length stuff from Hollywood or netflix
Thankyou so much
i think hollywood is interested on connections rather than talent.
That transformation scene in the container is perfect...especially the music. It's truly sad how so many brilliant short films like this literally leave us dangling on a cliff with never any answers...I mean they even literally asked in their own description who and why they're running away from them..
Without ever answering!! 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Why must everything be explained? I enjoy films that leave blanks to be filled in by the viewer. I like a sense of mystery.
Movies like this are like icebergs. Only a small part is visible. You know there's more you're not seeing, but in order to get the full view, you have to go below the surface.
@@Stratmanable yeah...I enjoy films like that too...but, those films usually always come in trilogies, sometimes more...its already been over 5 years with this short, and still nothing. 🤷🏻♂️
Just imagine if some classics like Star Wars, or Rocky, or Alien, or The Matrix, all only had one part and never told the rest of their stories...that would be truly horrible. 😕
@XThirdEyeX Eraserhead, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive are standalone films.
Blow Up and Paris Texas are standalone films.
Most films that offer a sense of mystery and wonder are not parts of trilogies.
Trilogies leave no room for mystery. In fact it takes three films to spoon feed you more than anybody needs to know.
@XThirdEyeX Also, what makes you think you deserve an answer.
Imagine being so unimaginative that you can't handle anything nebulous or unresolved. Imagine being so unimaginative that you can't conceive of a film where THE POINT IS TO WONDER.
My guess would be that they are running away from a CIA spook, and yes this movie was lacking. I also like David Lynch movies, but there's a right way and a wrong way to do a movie like that, this was done the wrong way.
This was truly beautiful. Pitch perfect. Everyone involved should be proud of this achievement. Thank you.
Love it ... she became what she was meant to be. The ending was just a taste of what's to come!

Wish Alter would make some of these in full length. They are so good like the outer limits.
I don't think alter "make" these films, they just "present" them
I think that’s partially what makes these films so good... horror is such a tricky genre to make because every plot is played out and been done before... the amount of jump scares, gore, eerie ness, and general plot twists are almost always like a solid 30 minutes of great movie... with 1-130 hours of filler. Lately the way they release trailers where they include like all of the scariest parts of the movies is just ruining them. Like you can almost watch a couple trailers now and you know the entire story with the best scares included.... it’s so sad lol
i recently came upon this site and am impressed by the acting, cinematography and the "horror punch" these shorts are able to give. great job alter!
I like it
These short films remind me of the Twilight Zone, which I love, I could watch these short films all day. Keep up the good work ALTER.
The cinematography is superbly done
Fucking excellent dialogue between that demon guy and Alex. Really cool shots in there as well. Spot on
I didn't completely understand the ending, but it was still good.
I love that at 8:49 you can see a face under his skin - such a cool detail
Filmed in scenic Yorkshire during one of those rare rainy days.
Seriously, though, the way the filmmaker framed some of the shots are very picturesque such as the one with the old church they pass.
Appropriate as its is God's County after all :)
I love these short films. It's a little snack o' horror....
What a great way to put it!
Except I eat the entire bag when I start snacking >:D
A G TAYLOR Lol!
Well said! Especially if you don't have a lot of time but need a horror fix 😁
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :) AG TAYLOR
I definitely needed more of this that was pretty interesting. Would love to see a sequel or some continuation of the story somehow.
Where did that random phone booth come from?
Tis the lorde’s work.
It's a real phone booth up in the Yorkshire Dales, it's been there for 30 years and still works.

jeff jones ahhhh, the good ol’ days! I can remember calling “collect” from the high school gym pay phone.....my mom wouldn’t “accept” because it was just our way of saying “hey, I’m done with practice, come pick me up” 🤣
So that’s how crop circles are made 😂
Ahaha that’s what I said too 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👽👽👽
the actors are so so good and the story/as always/ fantastic!! I love you alter channel ❤️
Wow! I want more! That was a really epic story. kept me wanting more. thank you
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Please make more to this one!!! You guys are absolutely amazing!!! Everyone must know about these movies!! My mind is blown!! 😍😍👏👏👏👏🤯🤯
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Can't say this was horror, but it was very well done. Good teaser for a longer work.
This is a short film, not a teaser. This is the final product.
@@jenniferellis1944 I know, I know, but it still left me wanting more. Possibly the mark of a very well done short...
@@MisterG2323 I can understand that, when the short ends it feels like you just finished watching the last episode of your favorite anime or TV show.
@@jenniferellis1944 Yes, exactly! 👍
I noticed at least 3 well known actors in this, if you google this movie and cast you might be surprised. I love actors that will do a film for next to nothing, shows they love the job more than the money $$$$
The actor from the beginning, being all creepy and mysterious, the one who said "you have a gift, embrace it" who is that!! He's so familiar!!
Edit! I figured it out, it's the prick of a principle on Sex Education!!
AMorrissey sex education is the best ... watch You if you really want something good 🙌🏼👌🏼
@@annachavez3965 check out: oswalt kolle- european retro sex education. 😂🤫
hahaha he is a damn good actor
He's also in an episode of Shelock. S3.
More than enough ingredients here for a full length film, with the right chef. Beautifully done, as a sample tasting, though!!! Cinematography was stunning, acting was impeccable. Please expound to a full course meal!!!
Love this channel, the film shorts are perfect for Friday nights, Saturday afternoon or nice little adult bedtime stories!
We have been blessed with a wonderful little gem of a channel😎👍
Wow, I REALLY enjoyed this little flick. Even acquired goosebumps towards the very end. Kudos.
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
I'm glad I suscribed. This is really good.
Thankyou very much
Who makes these if we could just have these people making full films we'd have quality horror daily . I constantly run out of horror movies to watch so get stuck with B horror. These are all top notch!
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
I'm always impressed with the acting in these. Great work!
How did they make his eye all swollen like that? Loved this short
*been addicted to alter masterpieces*
I just don't understand how this is a free to watch video on UA-cam. There is still some hope for humanity.
i love these short horror films.
i’m a huge fan.
i stepped on a long rusty nail when i was little...like very young, maybe 3 or 4 years old.
i can STILL remember the pain.
22:340 - Well, heck! If she can do that, why didn’t she do it before the priest was killed?
Sad thing about most short stories is they usually leave us hanging.
I just marvel at the efforts snd hardwork made to create this film that is nowhere less than a classic.
I'm evidently with everyone's reson for watching. I'm in heaven with short stories. In print until now.
I love there are not much jumpscare compared to actual horror movie
Pretty much all the main cast are well known professional British TV actors, that and the production values made it like watching an episode of a show on mainstream TV..awesome 😮 someone should pick it up for TV.
I watched this and loved it but I do not understand the ending. The little girl is the Scarlet Woman? I am wondering why they chose to use a small girl to represent the mother of abominations. Also, i get that she is upset that the priest was killed, and that is why she screamed, but why would she form an alliance with a priest? Why would a priest commit murder for her? So many questions.
What an incredible short! Great acting. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this❤
Very good a little confusing because of the language barrier but none the less a very good short. thanks Lisa
Of course, this channel got me even hooked!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the storylines. Worth to Binge-watch every video. Love it. This is why I subscribed to the channel!!!
You loved this? Do you understand what was really going on? Obviously good vs. Evil and all that but what on earth was the point?
This short story is by far my favorite 😍😍😍😍 !!!!
I would pay to watch a full movie this story line intrigues me 😘😘😘😘😘
Alter never fails. Pls tell me theres a movie coming for this or atleast a pt.2 my minds Altered
Great little flick but the ending left a lot to be desired. I think that it could have ended in a much better way than it did. So what exactly was the story that took place here? If I asked you to tell me what this short was about in detail could you explain what it was about? Even I had some trouble interpreting some of the theological portions of it, but I will do my best to explain it.
The man is a priest on a mission from god to escort a girl and protect her from evil during the journey. What exactly the journey is, where they are going and the purpose of their crusade is unknown. The girl is a representation of Lilith. Lilith is the mother of all whores and a demon described in the bible. Why she is on earth in this human form is unknown, and why a priest is to protect her on their crusade is also unknown. Lilith is a powerful demon and no ordinary demon if there is even such a thing. She is being pursued by the agents of hell.
A man is locked up in a sea container chained to a bed. This man is possessed by a powerful demon and an agent of the fallen one. It is possible that he is the fallen one himself as he describes God as his father. He issues orders to a human henchman to track down the girl. The henchman does his job and tracks them down. The henchman is not the only one trying to catch the girl and the priest is attacked by a pair of other agents that work for an unknown party. It is not clear if they are agents of the fallen one or if they are agents from heaven or somewhere else. The priest stops them and they move on to a church in the middle of nowhere.
The henchman and a sidekick find and stop the girl and the priest. The priest kills the henchman and the sidekick kills the priest. The girl gets very upset at the death of the priest and uses her powers to call down a pillar of fire that burns the sidekick to death and also seems to consume herself and the dead bodies. The end.
So that’s the story in a nutshell. I left out the encounter with the old man simply because it held no real significance beyond providing the priest with a gun and a car and also served as a way to provide a slight overview of their story which was explained to the old man who said he wanted to understand what they were doing.
Too many unknowns in this story that leaves the viewer to fill in a few too many plot holes with thoughts of their own. Can someone else who noticed more than I did please elaborate on my overview so that I can understand more than I was able to pick up?
Lightwish Light k
@@LightandLove73 I saw it that way too, he didn't fail in his mission after all . Lilith didn't allow herself to be taken by her inlaws devilish servants.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
Most excellent synopsis of this short! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I think the old man was about restoring faith into someone who lost his son. He said he once was religious but not anymore. He obviously believed again when he trusted the him to give him a car and gun.
that was a great summary! i didn't know who she was supposed to be, as I don't know the bible, so that really helped me to understand. even though they read a passage in the video, it meant nothing to me as far as who or what they were talking about. i also had a hard time understanding a lot of the dialogue.
I’m sorry but I haven’t read the Bible.
Can someone please explain why that little girl was so important!?!?
Please see Revelation in the bible. You can also watch a videos on youtube decoding revelation. The bible is really fulfilling it self today!
@@MsAspencer SOOOOO that doesn't explain anything at all lol. Vaguely referencing another's explanation of some chapter of a book is not answering this person's question.
Mark Lambert
Thank you
@@ArbitraryFilmings I kinda figured the girl was supposed to be the incarnation of mother harlot, thus the purple jacket. But that is very vague
@@Platymapuss Expected negative comment from you. My comment was not 4 you but an invitation for the question posed to be explored😊.
Woah! I wanna see the full length movie soon! It's just great!
This demands a second look. I'll come back and give it a go. Nice cinematography and location. Good actors.
Damn where have you been all my life.... New and forever fan just with this BAD ASS movie!!!
Thankyou glad to hear you enjoyed it
BEEN WAITING FOR AN UPLOAD!
This has always been my favourite short ever.
"... my name's Jen and I'm addicted to watching shorts!" 🤣
This video is absolutely thorough and straight to the point, this girl is powerful, and since she is, evil wanted her so she wouldn't become even more powerful. I absolutely loved the end, it left me is amazement! I absolutely love these short videos, they are what I have always wished to just see from lengthy movies, especially when they were boring. If anyone wants a great movie to watch, The book of Eli is something I would recommend!
Beautiful cinematography.
Holy! This was so incredibly well done!!
Need a full length, awesome !!!
There’s a few things that wasn’t clear like one why was a priest protecting the whore ofBabylon ? And why did she care about what happened to him when he died she is supposed to be evil so why would she care? And I got a few more?s but I wanted to give you an example,but besides that it was a great short great job👏👏👏
Omg...to the creator, this is one of the best I’ve seen! Understated and yet so incredibly apocalyptic! Could easily have been a feature tying in a few of those “loose ends,” yet still somehow covered in a short! Great actors. I’d love to see more like this!
Wow what am amazing short film. Wish you could do this more in-depth. Just amazing!!!
the short was ok..but the real action is in the comments better than twitter i swear
Ilove the old gy in the cofee shop - "Uhm, Check, Please."
Love the visuals!
anyone ever notice these shorts are great exept the ends
This is actually done really well!
I want more! Good actors. I liked the filming and editing. The special effects were yummy. I want to know more about the story.
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)
A really well crafted little film. Excellent photography,, exceptional acting, suspenseful story tautly directed. Very nicely done, but ruined by an incomprehensible ending. Ultimately goes nowhere, makes watching a frustrating waste of time. It's not ambiguous, does not leave one hanging or guessing... just wondering what the hell was that? Almost as if the writer couldn't think of an ending, so he left it to someone else to finish. Someone who never read the story or knew what lead up to the non sequiter finale.
You got too much time typing
I find this to be the case with many shorts.
Thanks im not gonna watch it
@richard She was The Herald that brings upon the Apocalypse
Yes, in the end I have no idea what it's about other than there's a good / evil thing going on. I'm not religious so I have no context about what the old man read and the pillar of fire. Of course someone from a non bibical religion is probably thinking the same thing.
Thats a good one.
Watched it 3 times over the years
Best upload to channel yet. Loved this film. Amazing.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it
I would really appreciate to put some subtitles on your short films. I had a hard time trying to understand this one specially.
Great work tho. Keep it up, buddies!!
not their fault you're a moron
Greywind92 wow, a beautitul woman saying other people moron.
Get some life girl, don't make your beautiful face wasted.
I don't know what kind of life problem you have, but it's not good calling other people moron just because they didn't understand what other people say.
Do you call your parents moron if they didn't understand you?
Thanks, and have a nice day.
I won't reply anymore,just saying to you that you have a beautiful face but not the attitude.
@@Greywind920 wow a judgemental 🙄 were not all americans or ppl can understand english speaking easily like you, i cant understand some of the pronunciation either 🙄 maybe i can call you moron too for being judgemental 😌✨
@@Greywind920 les gens ici ne sont pas tous anglais fillette....c'est stupide de croire que tout le monde est sensé comprendre votre langue....une chose est sure ici vous nécessitez obligatoirement d'apprendre les bonnes manières.
"GET THIS CHAIN OFF ME AVASHWAMSHA ACAHDAHDBFWA!!!"
This was done amazingly well! The acting and special effects were top notch! This IS what great filmmaking looks like. I would love to see this turned into a two hour movie with more background and explanation! I understand you can only pack in a certain amount of a story into a short film and this was really excellent! Keep making films, I’m in love!!!
This movie deserves respect, it earned it, it is better than a lot of mainstream stupidity going around, this is a story that progresses over time and concludes itself. Go and like it like I did.
What was it about in your opinion?
The movie was great, keeping the curiosity alive... But the ending, was kinda disappointing 😊
Good one👍
I love watch this channel to improve my listening skills in English (but sometimes I miss the English subtitles to understand all the story).
This was really good suspense. Worth watching twice.
Great to hear you enjoyed it! :)

Short films are so addicting
No such word Sergio. It's "ADDICTIVE!"
So TRUE
Didn't like the ending. It left me hanging. Great story. Hope there's a sequel in the making.
Another great short story!!
Nice ambient background soundtrack, and lovely firestorm at the end .Acting f#cking A + +Π
I find it interesting that filmmakers have never represented Satan as the Bible tells us he looks like.
@Truth Surge What about the book of job?
@@sashas3362 That guy is Ha-Satan. He isn't the devil. Ha-Satan means "The Satan". It's a job title. The Jews, if I recall correctly, say that he is God's Prosecutor. Basically an angel acting much like a lawyer in court. He tests humans FOR GOD. So yes that means God in the book of Job was indirectly torturing Job.
www.myjewishlearning.com/article/satan-the-adversary/
As for Lucifer, that was originally just a term for the planet Venus. Later used in the old testament of the Bible to refer to the king of Babylon falling from power. It was not referring to a fallen angel. That was a later invention.
@@DGneoseeker1 Yes, ha-satan is one of the titles bestowed upon a member of the sanhedrin, isn't it? The "elohim" were said to have had a similar (if not identical) court system. You do understand "satan" was never a name, right? It was always a title. Do you know what the true name of the one called "satan" in scripture was?
@@sashas3362 That's what I was saying. It was always a title. But modern day Christians seem to have become confused and refer to "Satan" or Lucifer as an individual who is the devil.
By his true name are you referring to Sammael?
@@DGneoseeker1 I don't know for certain what the true name is. I have heard many different claims. The most interesting I've heard is that it's the tetragrammaton but in reverse. HWHY or HUHI for example. But hebrew is written and read from right to left as opposed to left to right, creating confusion. I have also heard Lucifer is NOT one of the actual names of Satan. There are Luciferians who believe Lucifer is the name of Christ. But then there are those such as modern day descendants of the tribe of judah who believe Jesus/YesHUaH Christ is Satan because Christ condemned the law of the Torah as the product of Satan and challenged it, by pardoning an adulteress and breaking the sabbath law, for example. The latter being the reason Christ was executed (aside from the accusation of blasphemy). Somewhere I heard "jesus" was a member of the sanhedrin. The question is what title "jesus" was given. I once knew the title given but it eludes me at the moment.
I would love this, please make more.
OOOOHHHHHH BRING. THE. SERIES GUYS I NEEED MORE OF THIIIIS ONE!!
I don't why the rating for this channel aren't like skyrocketing or something... These films are amazeballs
The moment she open her mouth fire comes down and devoured
I love it
Sadly, Jack died
these video's never go anywhere it leaves me flat
Well done. Worth a sub.

TheGoldenGamer 😂😂😂 right?! The performances in this short are out standing
@@weebtrash6119 lol
Made my day🤣🤣🤣...
Brandon Brothers 😆 lol With a sawed off shotgun, aiming isn’t really much of an option! You basically just get as close as you can while pointing in the direction of the danger, and hope you’re close enough to hit anything at all! It’s why that type of gun is used for the super close-up kills in the movies.
Congratulations to the sfx makeup and makeup artist, amazing job 💪🏽✨
