Why did she stop to answer the call right in the middle of the road?
Because it was late & the street was empty. Or so she thought.
It was in the script.
You should ask my dad that. He always does that .
phone rings...stop on the spot...pick up the call.. no matter where.
Argggggg!!!!
99% of people do that, lost track the number of people who I've walked into because their phone rings and they just stop dead to answer it...... it's called a 'mobile' for a reason.
Neeraj ; It would have been hard to run over her otherwise, and I suppose, they'd reached their planned running time.
That was really fantastic, first rate production and quality. The lead actress was no amateur at all, and definitely has a future in her.
The Detectives jealous wife.....Is the Killer..That's my story and I'm sticking with it...Great job, enjoyed this short very much!
Great detective work.
Same thoughts 😊
I felt the same. She's taking out all the other women.
@@brooklyngal6334 Thats why she suddenly decided she felt like driving once she met the reporter
Oh god
She knew what was up, she HAD to know that was about to happen!
Who stops in the middle of the street to check their phone??! At night??!!
Great video
Bro that's how the story had written.
@@noushadpvlryeah but it was a corny predictable ending. I don't even know why the car hit her.
In every film when a cynical detective is introduced they always light a ciggie and take a hit, blow out the smoke and have a thousand yard stare.
This! Hahahha
Instead she could have stayed home and called 911 or told her boss everything in one breath
I would've gone with telling the boss everything in one breath. What good would calling law enforcement do since the guy she suspects of doing this is the very detective working one of the cases?
Vartixx31 should have called 911 if it was me
But what if he approached her in her house, by the window or breaking the door?!!
She'd get no answer if she called 911.
Right! That pissed me off lmao
Who's In The Comments While Watching This
😁
I thought this was really good. The only problem i noticed was the scene where she is interviewing the victim's sister. There didnt seem to be anything in the dialogue that causes her to become offended, yet she does so fairly quickly, and then proclaims it was a clickbait piece. If that's how she felt, why did she agree to the interview? Other than that, this is definitely one of the better short films ive seen on youtube. I personally liked how you ended it.
Thanks a lot! And thanks for your feedback.
It's a short so some of these movies you have to fill in the blanks. Think of it as a little background teaser to the finale.
RAW is WAR In my opinion, I think she became defensive and began to project her probable guilt over not getting on with her sister. There was still a bit of animosity and resentment in the way she suggested that her sister was more than likely seeing married men. That's probably why the deceased sister didn't tell her much. She would've been judged harshly by her. Now that she's dead however, the sister was probably feeling some guilt over their tumultuous relationship and also over the fact that even after her death, she still feels resentful over the way she had been leading her life. She took it all out on that poor reporter.
This :)
I'd also assume she did some research on the writer and her typical articles and the paper she's affiliated with. Worked back that she was writing a clickbait piece, even if she didn't intend to do so.
COME ON WHO STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD to answer a call? this was a good movie up until that cheezy death.
I disagree. People cross streets actually looking down at their phones. It's nothing unusual nowadays.
@@MrsPeebles62 Crossing the street and looking down wasn't the problem it was the stopping in the middle of the road. Normal people don't just stand in the middle of a road to answer a phone call.
Mike was calling which means the wife wasn’t around which meant the wife was driving to kill the middle-of-the-road-phone-girl.
@@MrsPeebles62 this was completely different than that. There’s a difference between walking in a busy ass metro area with your head down at your phone not paying attention... and a dark silent ass dead ass street in front of your house where you look down and the guy you suspect is the killer is calling you and you don’t see or hear anything up until your death? Not plausible
She does :) She should have read her script properly.
For everyone complaining about her stopping in the road to answer her phone, she was actually prepared because she jumped aside at the last second and he crashed and died in a fiery wreck! So there!
His wife/girl is the killer.
Definitely don't stop in the middle of a street to answer a call. But nicely done.
Plot twist she dodged the car pulled out a gun and shot him
Really well done film except for the ending that was just silly. I've watched enough of these short films to realize that taking a story through to a great ending is fiendishly difficult. There are many strengths in this film and the "author/director" has a good future :!
Omg this was awesome! I loved the way the flashbacks were done. Also the scenes of her at the computer, oddly enough people tend to come off forced in scenes where they're sitting and typing but this was well done. And my thoughts on it - SPOILER
I think it was the detective' s wife! The way she looked at her, checking out the necklace, and the "I want to drive" comment ;)
What an excellent narrative. Nice job all the way around.
Seen that coming.
Wasn't sure if it was Mike or his partner that was bumping them off, though.
this was a great piece of work. played like a movie, ensemble cast...each with a story line. Sad for Robin. liked her. it was headed to crunch time!
The title alone was enough to get me to watch. Well, done,all!
Okay but who STOPS like straight up holds still like that in the middle of a road for any reason?
Thank you 😊 I really enjoyed this. A full movie, well acted in 15 minutes ❤️❤️
Thanks a lot, happy you liked it
" Beach"
Great accent.
AWWWW. poor girl. I HATE CHEATERS. it's all she is thinking about and here it was just a one night stand for him, while he cheated and for her she must have been in heaven and thought how amazing he was and now knowing he's taken and she can't have him is driving her even more crazy, i know the feeling one night i was in heaven and then the next day hoping the text i got was going to be a let's meet up it was a hey i'm really sorry i can't do this but i had lots of fun, but if i wasn't in a relationship i would love to hang out, i just can't do this to my partner i'm sorry, this is so crazy so it was ok to hurt my heart and take it out and stomp on it but then you have the nerve to pick it up and throw it back in my chest and tell me we're still friends but then act like i don't exist? how is that a friend? after replaying the night over and over in my head i'm left feeling so empty inside while they're posting pics of picnics, and happiness love, and kisses, and then this post was awesome "it's so easy to be faithful when the person your with is perfect." yeah right like FUCK YOU. i hate people sometimes. so i know exactly how this girl is feeling, thinking it was the BEST day she's had in forever and was starting to think about how this isn't real it's way to good to be real, it's like she's not lonely anymore and she was smiling and happy to now being so miserable and lonely, used, and feel like the pain is so harsh like how can a person do that to another person, its so harsh, and then to say i'm sorry but i can't do this to my partner? like seriously but you already did. so you have NO PROBLEM hurting me, and using me, and making me so amazing only to take it all away and act like you don't even know who i am? that's unfair.
I felt you. The difference is he told me that he's not ready for a relationship.
Ms.Lauren Unfortunately you have a lot of company and it happens like it or not because a strong relationship isn’t developed Before you hop in bed! Women hate to hear this but it takes 2 to tango and they are willing recipients of the heart break!
Ms.Lauren You speak from experience! A lot of experience! Lol
Beauty, accent, blue eyes!! Cool story 👍👍
This was just amazing 👌 i really enjoyed it. Wish it was a full length movie 👏👏
Thanks !
Liked it till the end. Stopping in the middle of the road where she knows all of this is going down is dumb on her part! like she should have been like no i cant leave, they know.
Also i think its Jessica who is killing them not Mike.
Please do more of these!! 💚
remarkable how good some of these no-name, no-budget shorts are: 9/10.
No YOU’RE a 9/10 😎
Good acting, good plot! Very professional...Thanks Tuperhero!!
I would have taken the Cognac back ;/
Actually watched this without scrolling down, clicking on other tabs. Really compelling. Good cinematography too.
Thanks !
Well her boss did tell her to bring him Something Crunchy. LOL, she did it twice fold. She was onto Something Crunchy and then she became Something Crunchy.
True that
Music*** camera ***great story **** actors are good****suspense was great ****
Great work. Really enjoyed it. It was very well written and the acting was great. You just got a new subscriber.
Cheers ! You should have enough to keep you occupied while work on new stuff :)
Great short! Gratitude!
Everything was fine, except the ending. That was poor. She stopped at the marked spot just to be killed.
That pay off was really good
Great tension and the construct of discovering the connection with the necklace worked well. In hindsight getting the phone call from "mike" was maybe a little over the top as the record of the call and accident would be known. I don't think Mike would have been that foolish, maybe a flash of his face just as he's running her over would work. Love the production, I could taste the drive and commitment of the lead actress, in character, as she works agonizingly over the story really came through! Music score gets big points too. Glad I found it.
I think it was the wife of the policeman who ran her over.
So I already called him... might tell him... or I just call the police? Naaah that would be way to easy... or I just could finish the article and post it online... atleast do something that is useful!
The fact that she stopped in the middle of the road ruins it for me, she obviously knows they’re hit and runs.
Wooow.... Nicely crafted. Good Job!!
Her: "Mike?"
Mike: I AM KILLING YOU BY HITTING YOU BY MY CARRR!!!!!
Me:Lmfao. Great one bro. 😂
Did Mike also moonlight as a pirate? carrrr, matie.
Don't declaim the text of your role , you have to BE the character ...
Great film good job 👍👍
Very nice short film👏👏
I liked it. It actually had some SUBSTANCE. They should call it 'HIT & RUN' though.
Thanks for watching ! I quite like Something Crunchy though :)
This was pretty damn awesome. :)
Thanks you ! Glad you liked it
That's 13.33 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
PLEASE DO NOT READ UNTIL AFTER SEEING THE FILM SINCE THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS:
I think the actress did a great job...I saw the plot coming but it was still a good film....The only thing I would complain about is why would anyone with common sense answer the phone in the middle of the street????? That makes no sense especially if we are to believe that she is smart enough to put 2 and 2 together yet answers the phone in the middle of the street???? Plus the way he had been brushing her off why answer his call at all???? The dude was a scum bag for leading women on and cheating but his wife is the dumb ass that chooses to tolerate it by staying....So he's worth risking possibly going to jail for murder even though he can't keep his dick in his pants???? It takes 2 to tango, if she's that pissed and bitter she should kill his ass....Sorry I have no sympathy for that bullshit...Infidelity is infidelity regardless if it's the husband or wife...If the roles were reversed and the wife was the one cheating on him I would feel the exact same way....I know it's always easier to put all the blame on the other woman/man....But the person you married is the one that took the vows with you....Then again you can also take it as he is the one killing them off to tie up loose ends especially since we don't exactly see who drove the car....It's up for interpretation.....
Just brilliant.
Loved it! Great job!
cheers !
ok now allow her to live and find a way to catch the cop.
are you sure it was the cop ?
It was either the cop or the girlfriend,but I’m suspecting the cop,she’s only been with him for little while/there’s multiple killings
@@tuperhero you can answer better than anyone... right?!
Great work👏👏
Thanks
Brilliant! Love it! Thanks for sharing! 😚 😚 😚
This was really good.
Fascinating. Loved the freelancer!
Goodie for her. Stopping in the middle of the street. Nothing is that important!
Awesome 😘😘😘😘😘
Amazingly good acting. Great short!
Thanks a lot !
Good one. She panicked
So Mike is a detective and yet so stupid that he killed Rose first and stole her necklace after killing her with a speeding car and gifted it to Gardener and then killed her as well and again stole the necklace after killing her and gifted it to Robin now. Too bad, she left the necklace on her table, now he won't be able to gift it to Jessica.
This would definitely make a good movie
Lindsey Fairchild well all he shots lighting made it seem. Like a movie.. It lost the charm of a short movie
I think it's good thriller movie. And I can't wait for the full version😊😊😊
Very good I like this make some more
This should be titled "Every Bad Cop Show Ever".
“My sister would never hurt a fly but will kill a cockroach!”
Wow. Well done and..terrifying.
What a strong character the blonde woman has. And so does the black woman. I smell 2 alpha females
That was really dumb!
With so much evidence she chooses to go out alone AND takes the call in the middle of the road!
A serial killer a good movie. Great acting.
Great for a short! Enjoyed watching it!!! 👍
Thanks
@@tuperhero also wanted to say I love the name!!!
Who else went back to see if Jessica had the necklace on?
Kind of saw it coming, BUT, I always prefer when people at least put some effort into a story. Creating something clever in a short that's only got a few minutes to tell the story, isn't simple. So, you get points for giving it some thought.
Tracie Harris thanks! But let me ask you: « kind of saw » what coming?
I suspected the cop early on, when she began to think it was something premeditated. The addition of the other seemingly unrelated victim, and then the hints about how the women were seeing someone, but not seriously or publicly sort of clinched it--as it was clear in her first conversation with the cop there was some sort of romantic thing that was squashed by another woman (seemed to be a GF). By the time she sees the necklace, I think most viewers already knew what she realized. I'm not saying that's bad though. To be honest, nothing is more annoying than a movie with a mystery murder type plot where they hide all the relevant data till the end, and you're sitting there thinking "Well crap, who could have figured that out with all the relevant pieces withheld till the end?" It's like a cheat--like they want the viewer to be wondering what's happening, but are withholding all the information needed (or even one necessary piece) to solve it. What I really love is when I can't figure it out, and there's a reveal at the end, and *then* I realize the pieces were there, but I wasn't sharp enough to recognize it.
I guess if I had to offer advice -- and I'm just a horror buff, not really big on murder mystery, and certainly no film maker -- I'd say maybe you gave too many clues, and it was more heavy handed than was necessary. It's a fine line though, and as I said, I prefer one I've figured out (at least I get to see the protagonist put it together--which is worth something) early, than one where it's impossible to figure it out.
I liked it.
Tracie Harris cool thanks for the info, happy you liked it. To be honest, is asked because I like to know what conclusion people actually come to. When you really think about it, there are at least a couple other answers than « it was the cop », but I wanted to put the audience in the journalist’s shoes, showing how we all are guilty of creating truths only from our interpretation of the info we have, which is what we do here, as does she. Thanks for the feedback !
Excellent, thank you.
Commenters: please stop with the spoilers!
This one was actually *very* good!
great protagonist actor. Cop out easy ending
It wasn't Mike, it was his wife...she had to get rid of another woman her husband was cheating with..... remember her glare, saying "I feel like driving" when they met....
The music is just so cool. From where did you get all the background music?
Ridicilous. It takes n number to die for the cops to notice they wear same necklace and she is the smart one!!!.
The man that gave her the necklace is the killer it’s like most serial killers they always leave the same mark on their victims in this case, a three triangle necklace... well at least that’s my thought
Most awesome...
Thanks
Amazing
She didn't live to tell something crunchy like her Boss wanted her to
Very good, totally enjoyed this movie.
What did the angry exchange between the reporter and the deceased woman's sister add to the story? Did I miss something? It seems to me that the story would be exactly the same without that.
Who do you think in there right mind would stop in the middle of the road to take a phone call & not even move when the car Comes at her.....
I thought this was amazing! I forgot I was watching an indie short! The production alone was outstanding! I am a little disappointed that she would stop to answer a call in the middle of the road. A little too cliche, but, I loved it regardless! And, I REALLY love that I still am not sure of who did it? The detective? Or his wife? I am leaning towards the wife, but that's the beauty of it.
The lead actress was amazing as well
Thanks a lot !
Good short -- suspense left a lot to be desired.
in what way ? We’re always trying to get better
Nothing is worse or more predictable than the evil jealous wife !!
Good acting and good story!!
Thanks a lot
Ooiooo, my swing is it's his wife/girlfriend killing off the side tail, so easily identified by the jewelry. He appeared to be trying to get rid of her and the "no I feel like driving" comment sealed it
really amazing, great work :)
Hmm.....almost done, but..why she picks up the phone??
Shit !!
👌👌loved it
Cool ! Happy you liked it
Really enjoyed this one!
That rocked
Good acting and camera work
That was all good, thrilling but the end was rather lame - unless there is a sequel to that story.
I would watch it, for sure!
Cheers!
This was excellent! If there was a love button I would hit it
Thanks, love button you back !
How could I not subscribe :)
two words, really good.
