Who loves alter?! I LOVE ALTER ❤️ 💕
Me too
Me too!
me three!
The Dog me four!
I FUCKING LOVE ALTER!
I always rot a bit to test people around me
Mikuru Sagawa
Lmao
As long as it’s only a little bit, that’s fine.
People around me rot to test me
Ah same, so relatable
Same here man
the actor who played the dad killed it
I quite agree, He gave a breath taking performance.
😂🤣
He was dead-set on doing a good job.
😂😂😂😜
This actor got one of the best roles ever. A role to die for
Mom: "Stop questioning things you know nothing about"
SO WHAT'S THE POINT OF QUESTIONING THEN?
L. Sousa Official exactly. We’d know nothing if we stopped questioning what we don’t know
It's code for "Shut up, I want to be right."
L. Sousa Official Yeah mom is damaged I think.
right?
I was just watching this part and i asked myself the same thing XD
5:01 I just love the little bit of detail where for the book titled "Grammar and Spelling", "Spelling" is spelt as "Speling", further showing how not particularly well educated the family is on top of the other insane things.
Honestly the daughters performance is great. Absolutely heartbreaking
And yet.. u start an argument
Honestly...
I thought the daughter's facial expressions were spot on hilarious. Especially when she was in the woods with her 🦴 bone! "Rachael, go get your bone"! 😂🤣😂🤣

Dude your right the saddest part is that there are actually people like this in the world. This goes for the mom and the daughter.
That man is going to be bones in a bed and they're still gonna be saying "he'll be back soon" 🤦🏾♀️😂😂
For real
And the mother will keep on insisting that the father is only testing them
Ikr bloody hell
kitkatcoco67 its one word decomp
Delusions are lies that tell the truth
Somewhere in Glasgow England lies a little cottage in the woods, and in the Attic are 2 vacuum sealed corpses and a 95 year old woman reading them poetry waiting for them to wake up from their sleep to congratulate her on passing their test on rot.
Why must you scare me in this way
Glasgow? England?
Glasgow is in Scotland
@@Billy69101Thank you. A true hero
but how does a family find meat, if they don't even know where dust comes from?
SPOILERS (Just my interpretation of course)
First time I watched I thought the mother was crazy, ruling her household with a narcissistic and obsessive compulsive world view that she projects onto her daughter.
However, a second look reveals that the mother is just as much a victim as the daughter. A victim of the father’s constant paranoia and psychosis. Their home is filled with disturbing artwork and grotesque Frankenstein taxidermy projects. A sign on the door demanding to keep it locked, and a glance at a page in his journal reveals a paranoia under which he demands everyone in the house live.
He’s taught Rachel many things, like throwing a bone in the forest to see where it leads to, picking up dead pieces of hair and flesh in the forest and holding them to her ear to listen. We know she didn’t learn this from her mother who wouldn’t dare go into the woods for fear of mud and dirt. Her father was out of his mind, and clues in the film point to Rachel possessing the same mental illness as her father. She seems to hear and see things that aren’t there, and as the film progresses and the imagery of the millions of bugs crawling gets more and more frenzied, that’s Rachel slowly succumbing to her psychosis.
That moment in the woods, staring into the goats dead eye, is the moment her mind left the “in-between” and her inherited insanity rose to the surface. She then goes home and bludgeons her mother, ties her up, vacuum seals her father, and recites a poem about how she found the “in between” in the woods.
Even after his death, the father is an ominous presence in the house. The women are afraid of offending him, worried he’s pretending and that he’ll overhear something he doesn’t like and won’t come back. They’re convinced he’s testing them so they must be on their best behavior, doting on him, bringing him gifts and reciting poems and making sure the house is clean to his liking because as the mother says “you know what your father is like”. She is insistent on carrying on as normal and pretending like nothing bad is happening, because that is how she copes, and perhaps how he expects the household to cope. And if she follows his rules, he’ll notice and come back.
This film is Intuitive and clever and grim, the imagery is spot on but the symbolism is not overbearing. The actress playing the mother is so fantastic she really makes this story what it is. I’m so impressed. Serious dogtooth vibes!!
Dolce Luxe thank you for this! You are bang on - the father and daughter are indeed similar in a way the mother isn't, and your interpretations are very true. This should be a top comment!
Good gracious thank you for explaining lol.. I couldn't quite figure out what was going on
Your spot on!
@rutituti678. Me either lol. I still have no clue
I wish I was your type of smarts.
The scariest moment was when she said bacteria are mammals.
YUP
…And that air is “made of oxygen.” 😂
She ignores the 78% nitrogen.
Scariest part was when she made goat noises at a goat head

We didn’t even get to see what the final product looked like.
The actress who does the crazy abusive mother does a spot on job! Perfect! The clipped words,the shrill voice, and the obsession with cleanliness. Does a very good imitation of the abusive mother.
The dad died , mother in denial, teaching her daughter that he would come back if they kept away the bacteria...... Yup... totally bonkers!!
Lmao
That just goes to show that the daughter is more grown up than her own mother. Lmao 😆
It took me a Hot Minute to realize the dad was dead, not in a Coma.
The mom was turning it into a religion too.
Thanks for explaining that for me. I was wondering what the hell was going on
"He is rotting a little bit, to see how we react." .. WELL , we`ll see about that 🤣

Australia isn't real
phoebe poh ok
I feel connected to this short film, it reminds me of when I was home-schooling, there is gaslighting and there is indoctrination and bullying. It takes courage to tell the truth to someone who was in denial. I applauded Rachel for accepting that her father is dead and he is no longer with her.
Woah. I never knew that’s what homeschooling is like. I hope it didn’t take too long for you to pull through.
@@FusedPixelz typically this is only when radical religious people home school I’ve been doing online school and I love it
Sure sure lol. Seems contrived
@@listlessdandelion3587I hope you and your loved ones are okay)❤
She didn’t come to realization that her father is dead. She’s just as crazy as the mother. She said that they need to be here when he returns so they can open the bag and give him air. The whole family was delusional
Scariest part: The chicken, cauliflower and those whole eggs weren’t seasoned at all
Ikr?! An hour and a half of the mom cooking and you got yourself a horror movie.
The egg moved

They are still believing he would come back but... He isn't coming back anymore...
It's only a flesh wound!?
Chickenlegs41
There were flies IN his flesh... Idk much about science but thye’re probably sucking his blood or something. That and they said he smelt horrible.
This film deserves more appreciation. Clever plot, really!
Dealing with the loss of a loved one (through death or them leaving)... denial... discovery (courage to overcome boundaries and explore... the truth)... and even acceptance... of the inevitable... death... and the reality of this world. Bravo!
“Stop questioning things you know nothing about”
It’s that how you learn? I mean...
right like what
Yeah seriously
I think you meant "isn't"
This sentence is of major importance and actually easy to comprehend. But it is horrible that it has to be explained. I fear people when they act as a mass.
The family functions like a cult. Cults don’t want you to question. They want you to obey.
I love these films because unlike most horror films, where it's just jump scares, these are actually suspenseful and creepy. I love this. It's like Creepypasta for UA-cam
Sounds like you've been ALTERed. 🖤
@@WatchALTER Yup! And I'm so glad. Been binging all week.
I think they're thriller not horror
@@tasha3757 Can't deny the creepy aspect though
I couldn't agree more! This was the scariest one I've seen so far. The edgy madness of mother and quiet insanity of this whole situation is sheer terror, and it is literally right up in your face silently screaming at you, and you just cannot look away. I felt like I was going mad by the end of it. This was brilliant! Poor Rachel...
That girl is rebirth of Anne Hathaway!! A great actress is coming
Perizat Ismailova ya actually she is reminding me of Hathway
Ironclaw XII It’s like she’s acting like Anne Hathaway in real life, then?
I also thought about it too!
Perizat Ismailova that’s what I thought too!
Ironclaw XII Anne Hathaway is a Queen! Love her
i feel like whenever i watch an odd kind of cryptic start of an ALTER short film, my brain automatically thinks to open the comments as the absolute saints in the comments always explain the well thought out plots of the story perfectly. Thank you to ALTER and those amazing people in the comments who explain the amazing storylines and their well thought out and directed short films

Rachel : And look mom, you're rotten just like me.
Mom : Oh, we're also testing him.
Spooky scary dad
@@umikayumi2690 To see how he reacts
Both of these actresses do a fantastic job in their roles, from the way the mother is set in her opinion despite having evidence she's wrong, to the way Rachel wants to question things she doesn't know given she's only ever been told things from one source, I love it
It's funny how the "grammar and speling" book isn't even spelled correctly, such irony
I thought I was the only one that noticed that 😂
Yes, and "Drawring" too
I think thats the point
I think its because of their accent, thats how they say spelling, with only one l.
they also use the wrong word in "Knitting and Sowing" lol sowing is for seeds, sewing is the thing with needles and thread
"I made sure to plaster your head so you wouldn't have a Lobotomy"......GOD, I love this girl!
i dont even know what a labotomy is
A lobotomy is a surgery of sorts where part of a person's brain is removed, usually to help fix chronic nightmares and things like that. I don't know what this girl was on about.
@@gregthemerrow5306 i’m pretty sure it was meant to serve as another example of her mother’s twisted teachings.

The tension in this film is palpable. It felt like it was bleeding out of my screen with every shot. The composition is gorgeous and edited well. The soundtrack really cranks it up. Really hope to see the actress who played Rachel in more things to come.
it was really well at building a world that sucked me in and i wanted to somehow see or know more from those characters
Ooooo somebody's been watching UA-cam "horror story" channels. There's a law that if you put a horror story on UA-cam, it MUST include the word "palpable". Without that word, the video will not be allowed to be published.

I can't believe that the girl, Kate Reed, career didn't just rocket. She is amazing.
I know, right? She's brilliant! I hope she'll be given new opportunities to be an actress again, she was so natural and convincing! I found out she took part to another short movie ("Our Broken Heart"), and in that one she was soooo good, too! She plays a dramatic role, and she kills it! Lovely and very talented!
She has depths not all actors can reach. She also looks like Anne Hathaway ❤
@@divinearellano7019so her looks is her depth?!
I said she ALSO, not BECAUSE. Her having depths and her, looking like Anne Hathaway, are 2 UNRELATED/UNRELATED observations. BTW, If you don't agree with any of those 2 DIFFERENT/UNRELATED feedback, fine :) @@littleleah310
Its true that if a thing is being constantly told, one believes it and accept it as it was told. I totally hate how this mother who is lacking in education herself, makes her daughter believe his dad is gonna comeback. He's dead bruh just accept it.
You figure a lot of people tend to go a little crazy after they’ve lost someone they loved
@@applestobuttercups6035 correct. This woman gone too far.😂
@Brandon Greco I know it's wrong but my whole life has been a lie bruh😂 don't know what's real anymore just saying.
The sad thing is there are people like this. They become convinced that what they believe is true, get offended when someone says something different, and when everyone else says the same thing the incorrect person t he ows a fit and cuts themselves off from everyone else. There totally are people who would home educate their children because they are convinced the school systems are teaching wrong info.
It goes both way with the school systems. There are really bad school and there are also very good ones. It depends where you go to school. It's the location, the neivhborhood, which makes the school good or bad.
rachel- how do you know he’s pretending?
mom- because, nobody actually WANTS to rot, Rachel 😂😂😂
lmao such a Karen
I mean....she's got a point👀
Best line in the flick
@dani cali why does it have to be one country vs the other? With 7 billion people on this planet I'm sure anyone from anywhere can come up with a harrowing horror idea. It doesn't matter where you're from. Horror is universal.
@dani cali u sound dumb
There are...SOOO many half-truths in what the mother is teaching. She's not an intentional liar and she loves her family...she's just a zealot and in denial. This is SUPER well written.
Seriously, what is up with all the dead things lying around
I See it Everyday when I go to grab a Lunch
Simbå Sàmá lol
they are animal hunters
if you're talking about in the woods, then I can tell you that it isn't far from the truth. If you look for dead stuff in the woods, you're almost certain to find some. If you're talking about in the house, well, it's pretty heavily hinted that this is a family of witches. so like. spook

Thank u for always making videos to share to horror lovers like me❤️
I homeschool my kids and honestly most of the other mom's sound like this woman. Science curriculum should be monitored and knowledge tested just like math and language arts.
I was homeschooled and yeah there were no exams. Luckily, I didn't need them. Now I am a Computer Science senior in uni with a gpa of 3.70 out of 4. So it worked out for me.
In my country, homeschooled kids aren't even registered. It's really sad because for kids with severe anxiety or special educational needs, homeschooling could be really useful, but it's often used by weird people like this woman, and they teach their children that schooling is bad so wrong information is passed down through generations.
I find your comment very interesting. I was homeschooled, and I met some of the craziest and most backwards family from it. There is no doubt that homeschooling certainly has some major downsides, I feel like I suffer from some issues that worsened due to being homeschooled. Now as a college student, i feel free from it all though
Yet you spelt "moms" wrong.
In my country if you are home schooled you should be registered in a normal school so teachers can come to your house and help you learn
This short was brilliant, and I love how it unfolded. There is definitely abuse going on here and my perception is that both the mother and the daughter were abused in this home by the father. I think that there was possibly violence and emotional abuse towards the mother first by her domineering husband and that when she domestically instructs her daughter and slaps her for being out of line, it is so the girl can navigate around her father and avoid more serious violence from him towards her and possibly back to the mother for not doing enough to educate her daughter "right". The mother was probably already broken when her daughter was born and appears to be obsessive compulsive and is clearly uneducated in matters of science, which is kind of funny if the situation was not so serious. The only way to get her to listen was to tape up her mouth, and as we leave her tied up in the chair, she will now be a victim of all the faulty education she has imparted in this years-long tyranny. Couldn't happen shiver a nicer person!
Excellent analysis 👌🏼
Why are all of you so averse to the idea of a woman (especially a white woman) being an evil, manipulative abuser? Isn't there enough evidence in the video suggesting that that is so?
hey damn that makes so much sense- i didn't even consider that. Thats why she couldn't let go of her stubborn behavior- people experiencing abuse are still often suffering the consequences even if the abuser isn't around anymore.
The only thing that I understood is that home education is terrific
Thank you! That means a lot :)
well it is. Think about what the hell happens when parents decide to go full woke by "teaching" their flat earth BS to their non vaccinated kid
Yeah because this is an accurate representation of home education....
I guess they should now make a horror video about governmental school education and show you how great that is, maybe something like Nazi Germany governmental school education.
@@arav13 - Yeah, everyone should go to public education to learn that sex is an illusion and there is no difference between a man and a woman.

Nah...She is stupid. Remember Dunning Kruger effect.
The acting, the cinematography, the not traditional set up, it's so good and so refreshing. It's not cheap horror with jump scares, it's horror that makes you think and the best part (or actually worst), you can sort of see this sort of thing in real life.
"Can you make anything hard?"

Can relate
Lol
What does that, ⒨⒠⒜⒩
Mum is "complicated and dangerous" for her daughter. It's sick to want to live with a dead person.
The mother might be a victim of a supressive husband and be totally lost without his guidance, she probably really believes he will come back.
The way they believe he will be back, is like my kids telling me they will clean their room soon .
Cuz no one wants to . Saying that from a kids heart (I'm am a kid)

As soon as this was said I was like "hold up! That isn't true" and then the logic went downhill from there. Lol
Everyone is making smartass comments for the laughs, but I actually wanted to congratulate this short movie : it was INCREDIBLE.
The lightning, aesthetic, the actor's way of playing, the theme that reminds us a little bit of ''Stranger Things'' with the whole upside down concept and this very suffocating atmosphere that we can have in ''huit clos'' type of movies.
I would have love to see an actual, 1h30 long movie with these actresses and concept.

Home education must actually be one of the best horror movies I have ever seen in a few months! You are literally amazing
"Mold bacterias, which are also mammals"
I burst out laughing harder than I should have ^^
Rather... incorrect, perverse, erroneous, psychopathic, horrific , sick and evil home education. Wonder what the final exam entails? What kind of school did lovely mom attend? Great job Alter. Thanks.
Also WTF IS THE MOTHER COOKING AND WHERE DID THOSE EGGS COME FROM
HOLY SHIT @ HOME EDUCATION. been binging horror shorts for some creative inspo for the last 2 hours and this one absolutely blew me away. Writing is so beyond clever and love how it circles back and evolves without feeling redundant. Acting performances are SO, so good and genuinely FUNNY and relevant all at the same time. Wardrobe & HMU are so perfect for characters they are maintained yet still flawed enough to make us feel there with them. The fly montage, ohmygod. The sound design with this in particular was *gorgeous*. Shots are incredible, extra crispy and intelligently stitched together with such wonderfully unflattering lighting in the best way. Excellent job to everyone on this short, I just had to share how much I truly enjoyed this project. Been an Alter fan for years but this one rlly blew me away. The overall message was felt without being forced, and personally something I fixate on in the spoon-fed media age. This team accomplished comments on censorship and mental health in a way that felt actually original and not overexaggerated. We tend to define horror with very graphic, visual imagery; but Home Education really makes you wonder; maybe the scariest thing for us humans is anything unknown/the result of, or in this case, literal lack of knowledge.
Did anyone notice how “spelling” was spelled “speling” when they show the shots of all the books
Alter is the heccin best
That dumbass is... well a dumbass
And that nobody knows where dust comes from, and that air is made entirely of oxygen, that the reason some stuff decays is because its hard, etc, etc,
bacteria aren't mammals cuz bacteria use asexual reproduction instead of well yeah and don't blame me blame mi science teacher Ms.magard PLS hlp mi I hate school
white wolfy _12234 That really doesn’t classify bacteria or mammals. A better example would be that all mammals are eukaryotes, while all bacteria are prokaryotes.
Woooooooosh
Holy shit i related to this 4:10 the mother gaslighting the daughter to make her think she is "immature" so she can stay in control
Is it just me or does the daughter look alot like Anne Hathaway, sorry if I spelt her name wrong
No you spelt it right
OliVIA U but she does thoo
I think so.
I thought she did to!
More like michael jackson lol
Mother is grieving & is in complete denial of her husband's passing. She's putting it off on the daughter for not doing things in "order." Blaming her daughter for him not waking up. Odd & uncanny, but I LOVE it!
What I love about these horror movies is that I don't understand a thing that happens, but it scares me anyway. Brilliant shit.
A beautifully disturbing film about two people grappling with the idea of mortality and grief, the mother with denial and the need to control and the daughter with naïvety yet curiosity and creativity.
The raw food doe- didn’t even crack the eggs and just plopped the raw chicken in the bowl- Gordon Ramsay would be furious
One slight mistake. If he was rotten enough for flies then the fathers body would really smell the whole house out, not just when the blankets were pulled back: the flies would be the least of their concerns. Apologies if said before but otherwise a great film.
MrCrisp yes and if there were flies there would probably be maggots which would happen after around 2-3 weeks of rotting.
MrCrisp thanks will try. 👍
He’s been taxidermied at least somewhat.
Don’t forget nose blindness will prevent them from smelling.
Mrs G No it won’t, it really won’t
Damn, she’s beautiful. Looks like a young Anne Hathaway.
Lol that's what exactly popped up in my mind the second I saw her lol
Didn’t see your comment until now but YES
Thought she looked more like Michael Jackson, post surgeries.
true

She: air is made of oxygen .
My teacher : 78% of nitrogen and 20.9% oxygen.
